Back in 1996-1998 there definitely didn't existed any clear concept as to how a page or site should look...
Many of the now big linklists or TGPs actually started out listing all sorts of stuff; I still remember how many of the sites like the Hun linked straight to directories or even individual pictures (telling people: "link goes to pic10806.jpg, there are another 24")

Flash galleries with real design and large graphics were frowned upon. I remember my first submissions when I was rejected more than once for too many graphics, and they were minute compared to gallery headers you find now... I cleaned out my hd a few weeks ago and had a real laugh discovering some old tgp galleries from 1998.
