no christmas / holiday themed theme because december has been a terribly busy month for me.

I did, however, alphabetize my links and buttons on the button page. Depending on how well my very last college class goes, I am probably going to be putting a lot more earnest work into this website as a hobby post-graduation. This is something I just like to work at and refine as a hobby.

ALSO!! the official V2 layout of the website is now in conceptual phase. Not that I don't like the sadgrl template and haven't made it work out for me, but after perusing so many neocities websites I'm willing to try my hand for a new layout from scratch!

11/2/2023

Large update! I've done some mild tinkering but between this and the last extensive update in september i've done the following things

  • rolled out a halloween css theme that overlays most of the pages on the website.
  • Found out about iframes
  • created an iframe widget that is a simple update box so I can put small updates in said item and have it roll out across the whole website rather than having to manually update each update section on each page.
  • Added a few more songs to the playlist
    • also found out that SCM player has a maximum of about 86 songs that it will either show on the playlist or that 86 is the maximum amount of songs you can have on any one playlist.
  • Some mild edits on the jrpg subversion essay, mostly just spotchecking for typos and weird errors.

Not a whole lot of new pages but the iframe is a bit of a big deal.

Implemented a splash screen!

Got real lazy about the new layout overhaul starting with a splash screen that's mobile responsive, so the custom one is out the window. That being said it's nice to have something. Might make more graphics for it.

Also added a few new pages over the past month or so, as well as added some small hotfixes

Newer Pages

Updated Pages

  • Ghost Trick and Trip World now have box cover art on their pages, as well as some graphical updating. It's not there for Cave story because I can't pick which one I like better.
  • Put a bunch more stuff in the Buttons page. I do have to get around to updating some of those buttons so they're not hotlisted but I am not going to have a lot of free time until december so

Misc things

Some pages have a little top bar with the marquee in it for little updates.

I will eventually have to go in and more thoroughly edit my site map page at some point

Also threw in more songs into the SCM Player. I now officially have too many tracks in there. Sorely tempted to make one of those kinds of videos but it's just the website's playlist but IDK where to begin with that sort of project.

created a stylized not found page with a graphic and everything

8/22/2023 - after some fiddling around, implemented the style switcher from dynamicdrive. only Works on the main page sadly since a lot of my pages have fixed themes and that's not really something i'm up for changing at the moment. Still is is neat. Also neat that in theory it could be implemented such that it's carried through the whole site but me having fixed themes for each pages kind of makes that redundant.

Also tidied up the website some more, cleaned up some shrines, added the the ghost trick shrine and streamlined how the shrine pages work. Put some Pokemon themed Buttons on the Button page that are free to use.

8/13/2023 - Found some new stuff! Figured out how to implement some stuff to make my themes look differently on handheld / mobile devices than on desktop computers. I may be able to make my themes mobile friendly as a result and that's nice! also swapped out some backgrounds, added some more buttons to my button hoard. Also figured out how folders work on neocities so I gotta sort my pages and then make sure all my links work again in light of this startling development.

Also found the details html / css stuff after seeing it on a post on tumblr. This will also be handy for my neocities themes.

8/6/2023 - Implemented the Trip world page, also got an about page set up, though there's not much there to see (it's more of an FAQ page really). Also got a general shrine page set up for The endless forest and a secret Hidden Sunset page (mostly about Game Dev Tale of Tales' big twitter meltdown as well as a discussion about the game itself and what prompted said Big twitter blowout). Really happy how that turned out and inspiring to get on my long list of other shrine pages to make.

Also added some barebone buttons. I have a little antipixel button also made but trying to find good inspiration for the more common button sizes is a little rough.

Fixed up my previous two version pages a bit, might put out the code for those themes with a little more fiddling (also with a huge caveat that they don't look that great on mobile and were set up with desktop in mind. They're not terrible / not particularly worse on mobile than the sadgirl theme is but it's not been extensively built to look good on both).

8/3/2023 - implemented a scm music player to the main website as well as a few placeholder buttons.

7/7/2023 - Filled up the buttons page with a bunch of buttons. Also made a banner and implemented it across the site. Plans laid for some more shrine-y shrines with custom page making and all of that. Changed typos and added a hit counter to the front. Plans also made for some buttons so people can link back to the website if there's anyone actually invested in this website despite it using a template theme for most of the website. Thought about linking the video page somewhere, but unsure where since I don't really have any sort of general media page where that could be used as a hub for links for things. Also added three whole videos to the Undertale / Deltarune video page. Tempted to make a deltarune theory page as a shrine page on top of other things

5/29/2023 - Got done with updating more of the page, gonna link some more resources into the credits page. Also adding a New Page for King salmonids from Splatoon 3 as well as a page specifically for Undertale / Deltarune video reccomendations separate from the regular videos page.

4/15/2023 -Got real bummed out about the fact that my old theme didn't really work on my new second moniter. Kind of goes to show how themes that rely on fixed position things kind of break when looked at on a new computer / monitor.

10/28/2022 - Finally got around to gutting the website and setting it up properly so all my unordered lists don't default to the link styling that I originally had set up for it. But now I gotta patch it in and also recover some of the lost links on one of my pages since it ate everything and I accidentally saved over those links.

8/15/2022 - Did some more poking and prodding at the code. Decided to add some tiled backgrounds to some of the pages, also did some more coding on some of the pages and filled out more of the sidebar links. I'll also be setting up a site map that's linked ideally on every page but also just directly on the front page for those on mobile. Put some more of the webpages up at the very least.

6/10/2022 - I completed some more set up work on the website. Mulling over whether or not to do a complete overhaul of the website and maybe perhaps invest in some sort of html editor aside from doing this all by hand. BlueGriffon seems very tempting but i've heard that sometimes the html / css output isn't that great but it may be helpful for me to get this stuff out a bit faster than normal. I should poke around some more since Notepad++ is also a contendor to use here, not to mention Atom seems appealing.

Also did some adjusting so that the main textbox area isn't so big!

4/10/2022 - got the Links page set up and stylized. I've yet to actually put anything in there though.
