YTMND, an initialism for "You're The Man Now, Dog!", is a website community that centers on the creation of YTMNDs, which are pages featuring a juxtaposition of a single image, optionally animated and/or tiled, along with large zooming text and a looping sound file. YTMND is also the general term used to describe any such site.
The first YTMND was created in 2001 by Max Goldberg at his yourethemannowdog.com website. It consists of a juxtaposed photograph of actor Sean Connery and, in large zooming text, the words "YOURE THE MAN NOW DOG.COM." A soundbite of Connery saying "You're the man now, dog!" from the film Finding Forrester repeats continuously. Goldberg bought the domain for the site after seeing a commercial for the film, and originally the site just contained the text "YOURE THE MAN NOW DOG DOT COM" written with Figlet.
Goldberg's new creation inspired others to make similar sites with other movie and television quotations. At first, Goldberg maintained a list and mirror of these sites, but the list soon became exceptionally long. In 2004, rather than continuing to maintain the list, Goldberg created ytmnd.com. His site lets anyone become a member and create their own YTMND by uploading a sound file, uploading a graphic file, and optionally entering text to display. The site caught on in popularity and became an Internet phenomenon when major weblogs began linking to the YTMND Picard Song.
