re: nav - the additional nav is for secondary navigation and also the site button. any secondary navigation that appears on this will also appear on the main "box" on mobile - only thing that's hidden from mobile users is the site button since I figure mobile users won't need direct access to it all the time (which. I think I need to make a dedicated About This Site section that'll have all versions of my buttons in)

done - i also got around to actually increasing the size of the buttons as promised. still debating on a good size though - 2x res (176x61) seems way too big for me. but I also don't like how the buttons look in the current size (100 x 35)... maybe i could do a toggle?

a ton of minor sitewide tweaks, namely creating a righthand sidebar on the main site that hides on mobile (it's literally just a button + an addtl. side nav that appears in the main site itself on the about page)

+ changing all aside's to nav's since. they are the navbar. and aside is specifically for additional information for the main page and not to be used for navigational sidebars (one of the semantic gripes I had with my site)

i have an oc page (https://solaria.neocities.org/ocs/) but not separate pages for each oc. i orginally intended to have separate "pages" but wasn't sure how to incorperate relationships btwn characters into that

This is mine, although I'm about to channge it up to hopefully make it a big more convenient/navigable soon (only images on the main page for major characters, maybe more detailed character descriptions): https://beloved.moe/characters

ok, figured out a temporary solution for the blog. I've used details/summaries to section them off. the big ramblings will probably have their own dedicated pages at some point but I think I may keep the summary/details thing for the brieflies (my little itty bitty write-ups that are too long to be microblogs but short enough that it doesn't warrant its own page)

thinking out loud: changing the art page to a For You page (since that's what it is, the F2U stuff), moving directories around so that it makes logical sense (did you know that, like, most of my subpage files are on level 1? with everything else? oof). also wondering if I should remove the main gif player and only use it where needed (ie the buttons part of my About page, or in the F2U pages)?

I'm a fan of the iframe idea - it looks great on the site - except I'm having issues figuring out how to apply themes to the windows in the iframe without CORS errors :(

i think i will move my blog off of bearblog. idk. i've been using it for a while and I've found myself to not be a fan. may look into some static generators or perhaps maybe use iframes? keeping everything together on the site would be nice i think

Curious to hear what you didn't like about bearblog. I chose not to try it because I wanted to manage and create all my posts locally. Also, if you're curious about SSGs, you can see many examples of different neocities sites that are built with different ones listed here for inspo: https://neossg.neocities.org/

more or less the same reasons (keeping stuff managed locally) + I wanted to do a little more customization-wise with my blog that free accounts can't do. i also want to put images in my posts too

looking at my css pack page. it looks pretty cramped. i may end up doing a similar thing to the shrines page where I make each one a "button" that pulls from the funny colors and graphics of each pack. that'd be cool i think

(not live) good news: theme switcher works now. there's now simple light, simple dark, pink ribbon (the og theme), and autumn goth. bad news: it's not persistent, ie it switches back to the default theme when you go to a different page :(

currently working on (not live): added that one header thing I spoke about before that shows you where on the website you're at. added the theme dropdown - currently figuring out the best way to execute actually switching themes. i'd also like to roll out the holiday theme when I upload this

I also moved the sitemap link to the footer of the page. debating moving the site button to the "links" section of my about page but I'm afraid that may be too hard to find. i may use some visibility codes that hides the site button on the dropdown sidebar in mobile
