StumbleUpon should still be a thing, damn it.

Might be too long of a shot but I gotta give it a try. For years and years I've been trying to find this site, if it still exists out there, or at least find someone else who remembers it. It featured a picture of a little real-life diorama sort of thing, with various figurines and objects, some maybe clay and others little plastic toys, etc. It was partially animated in that you could click on certain objects and they would move a bit and make a sound, and there would be one that would take you to a different scene. I feel like there were several scenes, but I only clearly remember two (things I know were definitely there are bolded): 1. An underwater scene on a blue background, with green seaweed and maybe pinkish-orange coral, and various sea creatures - fish, maybe a dolphin, and definitely a reddish-orange octopus. There was also a diver in, I think, a old-fashioned brown diving suit with a helmet, and possibly a submarine. There may also have been a treasure chest and an anchor. When you clicked on the octopus, I feel like it moved a bit - maybe even waved its tentacles? - and its sound effect was a voice saying "I love you!" (it sounded like "I lahv you") before a cartoony chomping noise. I'm sure this sounds insane but I remember this so, so clearly. 2. A forest scene - a little clearing by a blue pond I think, there was bright green grass and dark green pine trees in the background - with a bunch of forest animals placed around the scene. This one is not as clear in my head but I think there were deer, rabbits, and maybe a bird. I don't really remember the sound effects in this scene, I feel like maybe the bird made ... bird noises ...? I vaguely recall a picnic basket and maybe a blanket?? Could be totally wrong about those though. I'm almost certain there were other little scenes, or at least one more, but I really can't remember anything about them, so I don't want to say for certain what they were. I have a very vague notion that there were space- and western-themed ones, but that could be totally fabricated by my brain. I know this was a website and not a game. I feel like it was probably flash animated, but it wasn't on any kind of aggregated flash site, it had its own dedicated page. I found it via StumbleUpon, and I'm 99% sure it was in 2007. That's really all I can remember. Obviously this isn't urgent but it's been driving me mad for years trying to find this place again. The only things reassuring me I didn't invent it all in my head is that I clearly remember having it in my StumbleUpon favorites (or whatever) and I know I showed the site to my best friend at the time. Any help would be hugely appreciated! Thanks!

this was pre-tumblr but does anyone remember StumbleUpon? it was a website and a browser extension that would bring you to a random website based on your interests. i used to stumble for hours just finding random wiki articles and movie streams and comics and flash games.
