Added archive.html, and now beginning the process of redesigning the older pages to align with everything I've learned so far.

Insanely impressive. How do you even go about designing these?

A lot of it is imitation and trial and error. Some I'm taking direct inspiration from. vinyl.html is me recreating this advert by the Designer's Republic, for instance: https://www.metanetsoftware.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/colours-1.jpg I also used it as an opportunity to learn how to use javascript to change the content of a page dynamically.

Some, like the new index.html, comes from my current self-imposed rule of trying to keep everything constrained to a single screen (i.e. if there's a scrollbar, it's for a self-contained div) and a goal. With the index redesign, it was "Today I'm going to learn how to use the clip-path polygon property in CSS and use this new font I found" and sort of trying things out to see what worked and didn't.

All of the content was already there so it was a matter of figuring out the best way to rearrange things. The live preview function of the text editor I use (https://phcode.dev/) makes it easy to try stuff out in real time.

your site seems like a lot of work, but well worth it, cause i've never come across anything like it, and its awesome.

I made these two accessibility buttons, do you think I'm doing it right? https://pxhc.neocities.org/just-test-dont-visit-me-i-am-broken (I put more info on that post of mine you had commented)

Ideally things should have labels also. The buttons work well but I'd default them to on if you do not label them. IMO it looks better with it on. The font change is a nice touch, it works well.

I'm thinking of making a button for accessibility... perhaps my site sucks for the colorblind? (can anyone tell me?), also a font change for dyslexia... I'm testing a full rewrite using correct semantic elements but I still don't know how screenreaders see it, and couldn't figure out how to make css buttons selectable just through keyboard though

I don't think this creepy disposable microblog is important though, I'm using it to learn how to do stuff better in whatever project I work in the future.

I just learned alt="" is not just a fallback if an image doesn't load, but a main accessibility tool

As someone who studied this awhile with limited text: The font is fine. The purple on purple is bad. four uniquecolors is all you need to ensure no two ever touch. themes are a big win for vibes either way.

IMO: Add a second contrast color to each current theme to replace the background color. Then add a highlight color opposite of each for headers.

(don't look at my site for examples of accessible design. I intentionally designed my index to be invisible to colorblind people xD) sry for spam. neocities limits sux.

I've read about the font and on studies arial seems to preferable over those specialized fonts, I will think of a button just to change to it and increase lineheight. For contrast, do you think just decreasing brightness would suffice? I can add a hue rotate to the button too

I was reading how screenreaders work, and my inputs were hidden so because of that they would treat my labels as plaintext, so I made the inputs visible and positioned outside of the screen, and I put aria-hidden on all purely visual stuff (the ascii art and the input/labels for colors and hidden ascii art, also the error message if chatbox doesn't load and some other stuff)

pxhc 1 month ago

and aria-label for a bunch of stuff as well, so a screenreader seeing // 202604061708 : won't read "slash slash two zero two six..." just "April 6, 2026 at 17:08", and also description for the inputs that actually matter... again, I don't even expect a blind person to find this site, I'm just using to learn how to make a site accessible

A lot of these changes are on the html side, which I can't help with: I am speaking only to supporting disabilities, not the code itself. Brightness alone isn't sufficient for enhancing contrast, you also need hue shift. No demand on any changes ofc, just offering tips as a dyslexic who is friends with colorblind ppl :)
