updates
A line that I think encapsulates my site:
“Most of this site’s CSS was cannibalized from my last website. Thanks to past me for doing all the hard work.”
actual updates
29 august 25. Cleaned up file tree & started looking into styleswitching-related things. I need to draw graphics for the site… (wince). Proceeded to battle images for a bit.
28 august 25. Found new fonts but didn’t like them, added absolute/relative styling but didn’t like that either. Started mobile media query and got my ass beat by a singular hashtag for an hour. It’s functional now though.
27 august 25. Styled links & scrollboxes, added image classes, added imood, tweaked container widths. Struggled with styling the form for a while before I remembered to use my brain. I think this site used to have a target aesthetic but I’m slowly losing control of it as I add more things. The bold styling isn’t helping, but I like it even if it makes my site look like a Geronimo Stilton book.
24 august 25. Set up basic HTML layout and got it up and working. It’s really giving Tumblr theme but I can’t be bothered to think about that right now.
10 march 23. After some domain struggles, the site is working on Teacake hosting! Great! Nothing’s changed in terms of content, but I’ll be significantly less insane when I work on this site for the foreseeable future. I’ll try to get around to SSI when I’m back from break.
06 february 23. Edited home & about page content. Added highlight spans, styled scrollbars, converted CSS hex codes to variables. Changed pagedolls to make visuals more cohesive.
05 february 23. I forgot what I did today because I was sleep deprived. I was probably just tidying up the CSS and making the temporary layout look nicer.
04 february 23. Minor visual adjustments, set up easy float images, got the mobile pagedoll working. Created a page template and (hopefully) fixed the issues it revealed about my min-, max-, and other width/heights. Wrote some stuff for the home & about pages. It actually looks like a site now, that’s exciting.
31 january 23. Imported fonts, adjusted line height, improved mobile layout. Started using Brackets. Unrelatedly, I had to wrestle with local file previews refusing to load assets unless I put a “.” in front of the path. I don’t know what this fix really does but sure, I’ll use it.
30 january 23. Inserted placeholder pagedoll, fixed up navbar & styleswitcher, added scrollbox class, wrote this and all previous updates. Uploaded everything to Neocities (which hadn’t really been updated since 08/22), then improved mobile layout.
29 january 23. Sat down and actually understood flexbox somewhat. Fixed up sidebar & main container; set up pagedoll, navbar, & styleswitcher divs; added footer, inserted placeholder text, set up media query.
20 january 23. Back for real (after ~5 months of claiming I’d work on the site). I didn’t get much done due to a stomachache, but at least the header & main container are working.
13 january 23. Created layout mockups for the new site look. Both PC and mobile versions were considered this time. I then realized Atom sunsetted and started agonizing over finding a new editor instead of actually coding.
