Redid about and pets to be more low-key and appear in the iframe, removed the tile bg because it felt too overwhelming, I don't know what to do with anything anymore. Doesn't really matter.

The blue tonkinese boy in my "cats" page passed away far too young this morning. I wanted to provide a reminder to REALLY monitor your pets and take changes in their patterns seriously. This may have been treatable, but a horrible coincidence meant nobody picked it up sooner.

His only symptom (reduced eating) arose at the same time we had to switch his food because they discontinued the flavor & brand he liked. It was easy to assume it was just because he hated the new food, so we kept trying different stuff. By the time he stopped eating 100% and we went "oh shit" it was too late. Thousands of $ on tests, IV therapy, antibiotics etc and he still didn't pull through.

Not sure if any of my Neo mutuals follow Joel G's projects, but ENA's new Dream BBQ trailer has been living rent free in my head since it released yesterday. It's just such a masterpiece. When this game gets released, I just know it's going to infect my brain and be all I'll think about for a while.

I haven't been this amped about a release since UNDERTALE (I was involved with it since its Kickstarter days, and went around proselytizing the project to everyone who would listen).

Neo mutual who does here. I was amazed by the music as usual. The game will be a great experience. The Dream BBQ world feels much warmer and richer than the previos iteration of ENA, so it's gonna be great.

In terms of anime... Widely-loved anime darlings that everyone loves but I think are terrible = Attack on Titan, Welcome to the NHK, Belle (movie). Anime everyone universally hates but that I love with every fiber of my being = Aku no Hana.

I always liked the original Japanese title for Belle better - Ryu to Sobakasu no Hime/The Dragon and the Freckled Princess

I thought the rotoscoping was a bold choice, and the slight ugliness really sells the oppressive atmosphere! The OST is incredible. Totally agree with tojisworld also, even if my issues with Belle run deep it's still a more fitting title.

What, if anything, are your Neocities "views" based on? It feels like an arbitrary number, it doesn't at all match up with the counter placed on the homepage.

i'm very curious if hotlinked images count as a "view" because there's no way i have 175k visitors to my site. it's gotta be from hotlinked art i've posted elsewhere getting loaded on someone's browser and counting as a view.

Definitely web crawlers are a part of it, but I didn't even consider hotlinked things potentially counting toward views - it would explain some of these crazy high numbers.
Merry Christmas, or whatever end-of-year kind of celebrations you do! It's stinking hot so I'm gonna throw myself into the ocean, my favorite place.

Thank you! She was fun to play, and even though it's really complicated to do, I like drawing her water hair. ^^

Decided to stop being lazy and start to actually upload image galleries for my OCs instead of just dumping an imgur link at the bottom of the page.

Thank you very much! It's a mix of my own art and commissions/gifts from other people.
Need to edit page to add a NSFW warning to my Pillowfort link, sorry if I accidentally blasted anyone's eyeballs with NSFW art. PF bills itself as having strong NSFW controls (you can 100% switch off all adult content with a setting, it is set to this by default) but I just learned that this only applies to people with accounts. If you look at a PF page without being logged in/without an account, you see EVERYTHING.

I would prefer it if you could only see 18+ stuff if you are logged in and have enabled the setting so that it's opt-in. But I understand why they didn't design it that way even if I don't like it.

Medium-active. Twitter's acquisition by Musk saw a bunch of people flood back to the site + new sign-ups, and they got something like 170% funding last month which is more than I've ever seen. But it's still small and slow-moving, it's no Tumblr.

Dream logging is very hard, especially when you're compelled to write with full detail.

In the end, I felt like having a picrew representation of myself on my about was a bit lame... but now, putting my face here feels a little dangerous given the psychopaths that use Neocities lol.

I batted for DeviantART for so many years but it's impossible to do anymore. The whole site's an AI art cesspit and the fact that they introduced their own generator (a SD fork trained on DA images, I think) feels like admitting this is the new direction they want the site to go.

I'm not actually opposed to AI art, the part that bothers me is that on DeviantART, AI-generated artwork and handdrawn artwork aren't distinguished from one another, they show up alongside each other. On Pixiv, AI art is considered a different category and if you don't want to see it you can turn it off.

Same, I miss old dA so much. Or maybe just the old way of things? The constant demand for “new content” is so hostile to artists.

It never hurts to have a sitemap somewhere, but owing to my desire for clarity and usability, it'd be pointless for me because my site's already laid out incredibly straightforward.

Your art's really nice, especially that style you used for the pagedolls throughout your about section, I'm not sure what it reminds me of... It's kinda pop-anime that you might've seen in old jp magazines in the late 90's early 00's? Very cool.

This collection is over 100 now, I hope to keep adding to it. Collecting these pixel dolls makes me really want to get back into doing pixel art, but then I quickly talk myself out of it because there's nowhere really left on the internet for pixel art.
Twitter is a dying platform that severely compresses and artifacts pixel art. Tumblr is better but still displays art below its minimum dimensions very strangely, especially on mobile devices, which everybody uses instead of desktop PCs.
