id Software Nostalgia Gallery by John Romero
 
Hey everyone,

I just had a kick of nostalgic memories (while reading our local Game Wizzard's, MrFlibble's thread about Jordan Mechner) from the time I read Masters of Doom by David Kushner, which is a biographic novel about id Software - John Carmack, John Romero, Adrian Carmack, Tom Hall, Jay Wilbur, and many others - and it was among my inspirations to be a programmer... Well, why I didn't really became a software engineer is another story, but this one is much more interesting. I had to contact Romero (surprisingly, anyone can) himself for a link to the photos from the Shreveport Lakehouse era he had on his site which used to be found at rome.ro! :)
If by any chance you ever wondered how they made Commander Keen, Wolfenstein, or Doom, here's a place where you can see everything.
Have fun, folks!

Oww, this is awesome, thanks for the link! ^_^

Heh, they had a real neat-looking room there :) I'm also feeling very nostalgic.
