Just dropping by to post two new drawings I did recently. I'll likely have another drawing to add here pretty soon. I'm also working on a small thing for a game, but it's just some sprites. We'll see how that all goes.
Quick update.
Wrote some of the character summaries as well as a new page under the lore tab. This page contains another, less unified, and more vague setting. I currently have only done art for one character from that setting, so I don’t know how in depth I’ll be going there.
Also made a post for Marble Warble! I finally got around to cleaning up the documentation and posting the first version of the game. I hope you’ll check it out!
Finally, I updated the welcome message at the top, rearranged some of the files in the background, and made a slight update to the code to allow for page titles.
Oh it's been a while hasn't it? Well, a lot has happened:
So then what's new with the website?
The summary for settings and characters will now be available in the "lore" tab. With that, I'm realizing that I forgot to write up the character summaries, and I don't know how motivated I am to do that right this second. Hopefully, I'll get around to that sooner than later!
What do you mean it's been half a year? That's scary.
Anyway, have two more art posts and an under-the-hood update before I return to the void. I don't really get much time for this kind of thing these days, but I can still talk about what I'd like to get done if I have the time. This isn't really a roadmap, more of a rough list of projects that need wrapping up in no particular order.
Well... I finally caved in and started adding javascript. Nothing too fancy, just trying to cleanup some of these pages under the hood. There is a lot of repetition in how these pages are laid out, and I figured there must be some way to make that reusable. Well there is. Now, if only I could figure out a better way to handle page navigation.
(Speaking of which, wish paragraph elements wouldn't do that when in a nav element)
Anyway, I'm thinking of adding a section to describe the setting that's the home of many of the character in the art gallery. I've given a short blurb on each of the characters for their pictures, but that's mostly the background of their development. Their is a lot more about them, their homes, and their cultures.
The quest to develop this site to do everything I want continues. There's lot of work under the hood to try to handle various kinds of content in an elegant manner for both desktop and mobile while keeping everything simple. Some things (the pico-8 embeds in particular) still don't work so well on mobile. That's a problem for another time though.
There's still more to do to finish furnishing this site with all the features I originally planned. Still thinking about a guestbook, and I was reminded of the widgets one could add to their google pages website back in the day. Additionally, if any of my friends end up making their neocities sites, I'd like to form a webring.
Boy I forgot what a pain it is working with html/css, and of course I'm going to try to keep the javascript to a minimum for simplicity's sake. That being said, the theme seems to be mostly working how I'd like (curse those pesky side margins). I'll try to get those quirks ironed out and actually add some content, but it'll probably be slow going. In the future I'd like to add things like a guest book to complete that classic, personal webpage feel. I'm also going to figure out the best way to add some of my pico-8 games and other code projects to the code section of this website. The easiest thing right now though is adding some of my art since that's something I have readily on hand and the presentation shouldn't be too big of an issue.
There are some things I'm uncertain about. For one, I don't know if I should duplicate the posts from the other tabs onto this one, or keep them separated. Secondly, I don't know if the post order should be chronological from youngest to oldest, vice versa, or figure out some way to have the reader choose. Probably, the easiest is to have it be youngest first and then have easily navigable page controls. We'll see I suppose
