Heya thanks for following! Best wishes building your website. If you get stuck there are a lot of people happy to answer questions.
Updated my Links page to have some buttons to let you pick between seeing a button wall (no descriptions) or with descriptions. Added some new sites. https://pixelglade.net.au/misc/links.html

Heya WizWag, thanks for following! Your artwork is pretty amazing. The comic about doodles is so true, it's a pet peeve of mine when artists are like "just a quick sketch" or "doodle" and it's a fully rendered artwork.

Thank you lol, and no problem, I love the site. : ) Your art is wonderful, and I'm a big fan of your brushes.

How do people prefer button walls to other people's sites organised? A large lump, separated by category, or with individual descriptions? Thinking of redoing mine.

personally I think button walls should have any semblance of description, like either individual description or distinction by category at the very least. I think linking other sites is on the same level as adding a new page to your site, except with extra regards because it's another person's site that you think is special enough to have on your own site

that's a good point heart143, and is how I feel about it too. I write descriptions for mine because I want people to know why I added the site - but also I wondered if it takes away some of the spontaneity of clicking from a 'button wall' type of thing, since I noticed the latter is the most common version of it.

I feel like they have pros and cons. categories give more mystery, descriptions more clarity. maybe a toggleable description could be a good compromise?

Then theres me who doesn't even have a button wall, or links site... yet.. anyway. I plan on being on theme with my site, have narrotor talking about these distant lands, and write some descriptions based on what type of site, and have them categorized by what land they are on.. basically giving is worldbuilding lol

I like both, I prefer a large lump personally because I like the idea of pick a brick and see where it takes you. Admittedly I rarely read people's descriptions if they have added them

Maybe you could do a hover title that gives a short description? But still keeps the sort of 'random clicking fun' of a button wall. I'm thinking of doing mine like that, because I'm not sure if I even can categorize all the pages efficiently and I'm worried about it being more cluttered in the end..

thanks everyone! I might do a button to toggle between 'big wall' and the descriptions version so people can choose their favorite.
