19 Years of BreatheHeavy: iconic layouts from 2004-2012

[Alexa]

I didn't join until spring of 2008 but I remember the last main page layouts of 2007! It's kind of crazy to look back at this site like a time capsule and remember just how much has happened through those years. Thanks for sticking around, through everything

[Isla]

Loved this! So many cool layouts. The one from 2012 brings back so many memories as that's the year I joined Exhale!

Dear Lawd! So I kinda remember the second one from 2004, been 16 years already that I'm visiting this site?!?!?!! I also used to access gobritney.com for photos, good times <3 

What would it be of my teenage years without you? Jordan, really, thanks!

2007ney pop from the rest cause I'd be between here and x17 refreshing the page all day.

Wow what a story! A Limewire remix eh? Super interesting.

Yeah, I swear it was a Breathe On Me or Touch Of My Hand remix. Do you remember when you'd play a song through Windows Media Player (!!!) and if someone added eg: album name to the file, it would scroll across like a news headline if it was too long to fit? I distinctly remember it being some long, jumbled description and it had BreatheHeavy.com in it. Must've been a song that went around the forums back then perhaps?

I remember you also had affiliate sites on the side bar to other popular blogs back then. Was HollywoodTuna one of them? I remember stumbling upon that site back in the 00s days. I think even Lainey was an affiliate back then, no? She definitely used to link to your site, I swear it's how I came across hers too.

You may have launched it in June, but the Internet Archive has record up until March 2004*.

Here is the version prior to the launch.

And just after the launch here.

Love this ad:

Lol I think so yes. 

I remember reading an article about it on x17online I believe, I THINK that's how I found out about your website ! 

Was that before or after you gifted the world with Love 2 Love U ? Cause maybe thats when I discovered breatheheavy.. 

I never post on here but ive been coming to your website twice a day everyday for at least 11 years now. Just wanted to say thank you for the amazing work and dedication you've obviously put into this website and happy 16th anniversary ! 

*going back to being a passive lurker*

I remember being on breatheheavy since 2007. I love how much has changed since then.

 

That's my absolute favorite layout. It fit perfectly at the time and somehow still does.

I remember I started to check BH in 2007 along with X17 and HeyBritney which was a site for South American stans 

Good old days 

[Korey]

I can’t believe it’s been that many years. Never been a big poster but enjoyed all throughout the years. Thank you for your hard work and dedication to it all. You are appreciated!! 🤗

[blonderoman27]

Wow 

The layout for 2008! That's when I was here and I feel like her mouth was ripped out with exhale? Maybe? But oh that just took me backkkkk. 

[ItsgonnabeMaaay]

Holy HTML, I remember them all. I am officially ancient. Always loved BH!

Also....hey! Finally got around to making an Exhale account after an eternity lurking....

[lorxy11]

Lol, this was great to see all those old ones.  

Been a lurker since the start of this site. I remember all those great layouts. Always cool to see the progression and different looks. Awesome
