I'm loving the redesign, especially the new logo!

Thank you very much!! The logo was inspired by late-1800s book cover styles (I love those so much, truly) though I'm not the most confident in my lettering skills, so I'm glad you like it !

I see! I love that type of book cover, and i can see you drawing inspiration from it. If you wanted to make it more resemble those book covers you should consider changing the background of the logo to either one of red, blue, green or brown, the most popular cover colours of that time, excluding black.

I made a few mock-ups of how it would look like. You could obviously do it better, as you have both the skill and the files to do it.

Wow! My main reference had a red cover, along with the black ink and gilt that I drew from for the banner image. That being said, I think your mockups with the not totally-gold back look great. When I have the energy and time, I'll have to add some detail (and a little more time, too, as this whole site design overhaul, logo included, was kind of done in a one-day frenzy, hah)

I'm curious if anyone can crack what i'm working on right now, regarding the lighthouse page i just got done.

I can't. But I *am* here for the Serial Experiments Lain page!

Cool site you've got there! Found it through a backlink in my analytics. I don’t really use Neocities much anymore, but i’ve added you to my RSS reader — curious to see where it goes. :-)

Its great to hear this comming from you. You were one of the driving influences for me starting this website! i tried doing stuff on neocities before but was not very good at it, and didnt keep it updated. this time around i am more motivated to keep it going, so hopefully you find the things to come on the website interesting

Hey man, obligatory neocities question. Do you have an 88 by 31 button I can link to you with? I like to do that for mutuals and websites I look up to on neocities.

Hey. First of all, love your website, the layout, color scheme, everything looks so good together! Sadly I don't have button, but I will definitely make one today.

Quite similarly, love the uniform theme you have across your pages and great work on the consistency of the illustrations. Doing something similar on my website, i know what a hassle it can be at times, especially if sourced from lower quality scans. Your website is definitely one i look up to, design-wise.

Such a kind words, thank you so much. All the illustrations are scans I found on Flickr under British Library and The Public Domain Review, they have quite high quality scans. Full resolution on some of them is unbelievable.

I've come to need to use (or found) some wonderful illustrations in the most scuffed of scans, and those take quite a while to recolour and make transparent. Tends to happen when you search for very specific stuff. I'd like to recommend you broaden your search with oldbookillustrations.com and what other digital local or national libraries are available.

I got some useful links in that regard on my webpage under "Hyperlinks->Archival/Libraries->Books" & "Hyperlinks->Archival/Libraries->Illustrations"

I will definitely go through your links and check them out, thank you for the recommendations. I actively look through the archive of national library, because I was thinking of translating (even though I am not linguist of any sorts) some interesting parts from old books and posting them here.

That music player on your website is amazing. exactly what i've been looking for. care to share where i could get it from?

briedraws 3 years ago

Yeah no problem! I got it from here: https://codepen.io/sadness97/pen/RwKbNWW ; heads up for the skin, if you cant host it on neocities because of not being a supporter, you can host it on https://catbox.moe/ and link it with the url there ^_^ same with the music files! Hope this helps!!!

That is wonderful! so many skins to choose from too!! One last question, how do i add mutiple songs? just repeating the section of code and replacing urls and names leaves me with only the last song appearing on the audio player

misclicked and deleted your comment... but thank you! I used to spend hours looking through dedicated chao fan pages, so I figured I may as well create my own.
