The Lost Media Vault

A Flash animation by Alan Becker in which a stick figure gains sentience and fights back against the animator creating it. One of the most creative and beloved Flash animations of the era, it spawned multiple sequels and an entire YouTube channel that continues to this day.

A Flash animation series by Jason Steele (FilmCow) about a grumpy unicorn dragged on adventures by two annoyingly enthusiastic companions. The first episode from 2005 was one of the most watched Flash animations on Newgrounds and early YouTube, spawning three sequels.

A looping Flash animation by Jonti Picking featuring badgers doing a repetitive dance, suddenly interrupted by a mushroom and then a snake. The animation was deliberately designed to loop forever with no end. It became one of the most referenced early internet animations.

A short Flash animation by Jason Windsor depicting a hilariously dramatic countdown to the end of the world with a heavy accent. One of the most quoted Flash animations of the early 2000s — 'OMFG SHOES' and 'but I am le tired' became common internet phrases.

A Flash animation featuring a dancing banana set to a song by The Buckwheat Boyz. It spread virally through AIM and email in 2002 and was later featured on Family Guy, cementing its place in early internet history. The original creator is disputed.
