| | '''Walk the Dinosaur''' was a [[shock site]] created and hosted by [[LOLShock]], available from April 2008 until the first half of 2022. This one, alongside the complete series created by LOLShock during its existence, has been parked ending with almost 14 years of service. The animation also appeared on [[Shockchan]]. |

| ==='''2008''' history=== | | ==Contents== |
| On April 21, 2008, the website consisted on two centered text boxes backed up by a bottom with repetitive patterns of a Brachiosaurus-like silhouette accompained by two dark-coloured hearts (each one on both sides of the creature), two pink-coloured lightning bolts and the onomatopoeia "rawr" (also pink-coloured). Respect to the contents displayed on the text boxes, from the upper one to the downer one: We found the words '''Walk the Dinosaur''' that heads the main Macromedia Flash archive featured simply as '''dino.swf''', a low resolution animation of two dinosaurs having sex in the 69 position, while the song '''''Walk The Dinosaur''''' by '''''Was (Not Was)''''' plays in the background. The text '''walkthedinosaur.com''' is displayed on the lower left side of the animation; in the second box, we found a list of another 5 shock sites created by the developer of LOLShock back then, headed by the caption '''"Other High Quality Sites"'''.
| | The website displayed a crude, low-resolution pornographic animation of two T. Rexes (the Shockchan version describes them as “raptors”) in the 69 position, accompanied by “Walk the Dinosaur” by Was (Not Was). A background of hearts, lightning bolts, and pink apatosaurus silhouettes with the onomatopoeia “rawr” next to them. The video is accompanied by a satirical description describing the work as a “masterpiece” and mocking young-Earth creationists who believe the Earth is only about 6000 years old (based on a literal interpretation of the Bible) rather than billions of years old (which is the scientific consensus based on extensive evidence). |

| ==='''2008-2009''' history=== | | ===Original Description=== |
| Between these years, 20 snapshots were taken (omitting the first one), having some of them a little change on the characterisation of outer links. From Wednesday, June 4, 2008 to Friday, September 25, 2009, the website displayed the same contents described on the first part, with the distinctive feature of the insertion of the first annoucement ('''"SITE NEWS: My buddy from college is a pervert and just started the YouTube of porn!"''' quoting directly part of the text disposed, site later identified as '''teentube4free.com''') and the self-annoucement of outher contents created back then ('''"OR - YOU WANT MORE SHOCK?!? - LOLSHOCK Shock Sites! - The total list of shock sites!"''' quoting directly the content) on the downer text box. The caption '''"Other High Quality Sites"''' as well as the list of initial shock sites was suppressed, and the border of the text box has been duplicated.
| | ====What is Walk The Dinosaur about?==== |
| | Walk the Dinosaur takes the viewer on a journey through time to the days in which the world was first created (in approximately 4,004 BC). It uses wonderous technology and computer graphics of the modern age to help us peer back over 6 THOUSAND YEARS to the start of time and see what was going on in the earliest days on earth before the great flood. This work of art is truly a masterpiece and has been likened to the masterful [[Lemon Party]] and [[Meatspin]] artworks. |

| ==='''2009-2010''' history=== | | ====Meaning of WTD:==== |
| Between the dates Wednesday, November 25, 2009 and Thursday, May 27, 2010, 17 snapshots with the same integrity of contents were taken by Alexa Crawlers.
| | Many people have tried to define Walk The Dinosaur as a work of 'dinosaur porn' or shock cartoon art. It is now clear that the work is far more complex than originally thought and is not dinosaur porn. It is now being used as proof of intelligent design in some circles and will surely be recognised as strong evidence refuting evolutionary theory in the future. |

|
| As well as the previous content revisions done during part of 2008 and 2009, '''walkthedinosaur.com''' didn't presented notable changes at all, but in this time interval, another advertising space was added in the inner part of the webpage (separated from the main text boxes), publicising the currently active dating website '''Fling.com'''. Little pop-up windows generated by the advertising contents for Fling.como were also added, simulating a notification from old messenger services.
| | ==History== |
| | The website, according to its first entry made by the organization Alexa Crawls, was registered during the fourth month of 2008 and at least existed since Monday, 21 April of that year; since that date, the Internet Archive technologies have registered 192 times the domain, being the last entry made on Friday, 21 January 2022, although the website was parked or removed a while after this previous register. |

| ==='''2010''' changes history=== | | ==Links== |
| Unlike the last three parts, on 2010, few less-important changes were done on the website, with the total conservation of the main elements (e.g. the original '''dino.swf''' archive and the refential bottom patterns shown since the first entry), the suppresion of the advertising tools used for '''Fling.com''' and the short-time addition of advertising space on the downer part of the general text box (sharing space with the '''teentube4free.com''' advert), used for the currently extinct link generator '''HTSTI.com''' (quoting the heading text: '''"How To Answer Noob Questions (Very Lulz)"'''). There are 4 snapshots that registered these changes, developed between Friday, June 11, 2010, and Thursday, July 22, 2010, being the first capture that kept the website original estethics after 2008.
