hasn't been 24 hours. I know I haven't been updating the site that regularly this year, and that my leftover 2025 resolutions have had little to no meaningful progress. Decided y'all warranted an apology / explanation as to why. tldr, apparently being a subtropical reptile in a subarctic climate means I've basically been sick since december, and also one of my housemates actively h8s me and vice versa

Any idea why the top 3/4ths or so of my home.html screenshot gets cut off in the feed?

in a new webring; check 'em out. love y'all @OC folks, but I'd love to make more music scene colleagues, so if you know of any other active punk / emo / metal adjacent rings that'd have me, email me or drop links on my profile. > https://p-u-n-k.nekoweb.org/index.html

New Bureau of Edge memo. This is some raw paracosmic sh#t (censoring 'cause it's funny) that dates back 10+ years. You might find some retro Windows and Pokemon Go fixation content if you know where to look... still unsure what the future of the Bureau is given how the Ronnie Slime bit is no longer that interesting. FIR has stopped being fun (JUST DIE ALREADY) and my personal slime infection developed sentience.

The evil website, if you have no idea what the second bit is talking about: https://dyingisyourlatestfashion.neocities.org > turned out Ronnie Slime wasn't exactly a fictional concept?

heya! found you via Tofutush and digging your OC designs, especially Dominique. I'd love to exchange buttons / chat if you're into that. Also, minor suggestion -- the cursive font on your body text is pretty hard to read. Might be a good idea to add a theme switching button so viewers can change the font? A guide for that: https://solaria.neocities.org/guides/themeswitch

Of course! I'd love to exchange buttons :> And I'll look into a changing theme too, or maybe I'll just change the font haha

Added your button to affiliates on the homepage -- FYI, right now your button marquees are looping before their full length. You'll need to change them to CSS animations if you want them to scroll and have your users see all of them (that also works on more browsers). IDK how to do that vertically, but here's a code snippet I used to use for a horizontal pseudo-marquee. https://rentry.co/css_ani_marquee

I'm not an expert on CSS animations, but I *think* that snippet should work if you just change transform X to transform Y and replace vw with vh.

Testing if I could fit a super-compressed backup on Nekoweb without paying just in case. I don't plan to leave for the time being because I like the socials here, but it'd be nice to have the option. (right now, I leave OC art basically uncompressed since it's also an archive for me.)

The main thing that concerns me about Nekoweb is having less space. Also, I don't like their editor (and I can't use WebDAV well on Mint) or their focus on Discord. If you're trying to do indie website shit and only communicate on Discord, you're missing the point. But it'd be nice to know if that works, so I need to compress all my files as much as possible to test.

I also find Nekoweb to be overly "cutesy" and gimmicky, which doesn't resonate with me, but it is an option if I can get the site below 550 mb (doubtful). I'd rather not subscribe to it since I detest groupchats so it doesn't have the social components I like from -cities.

okay, I still find Nekoweb overly cutesy and gimmicky and don't like their reliance on Discord, but I did figure out how to fix the most annoying part of their editor (the overzealous autocomplete popups that try to fill in every word you write -- really annoying for creative writing pages or anything with natural English in it) -- in a userstyle, set .ace_editor.ace_autocomplete to display: none.

also found a compressor; added link to it and the nekoweb style to /miscellanea/techystuff > https://nikkhokkho.sourceforge.io/?page=FileOptimizer
