Enormous update- completely overhauled how the site's put together. Article links will be broken! If you've linked to any page with /articles in the URL, then please take a moment to update those links.

Cannot underestimate how much pain this will save me when I want to change page headers or structure.

Saw your message about html help cross my feed, thought I'd pass along some good resources that might help. https://htmlandcssguidebook.com/index.html goes from the ground up and even talks about file organization. https://internetingishard.netlify.app/html-and-css/ is one of my favorites to send folks who are just learning. https://htmldog.com/guides/ is how I learned!

I do also have a ton of more specific resources on my links page (under the htmlcss and webdev tags) if you need anything more specific.

Another new index image- the lineless version of the old one is now the main site's image, and I wanted to keep something unique for the Neocities one.

Also took a page from an article I had saved to change the preview thumbnail. ;)

Incredible!! I love how clearly you can see the piñata texture in this one. One of my favorite details.

Optional pink mode is now on the settings page. If you're a fan of pink, then you can view the Roost in your favorite color!

On a related note, the code for custom themes is cleaned up enough that I can make more themes without much difficulty. Planning to make the buttons a drop-down and then see about automating theme additions.

I agree. And it made me think an extra time why I'm one of those small web-fellas that just go "fuck your phone, this is made for a pc". Am I going to make a responsive version of my site because of this perspective changer? Quite possibly.

Currently committing CSS crimes to prove a point related to accessibility. Stay tuned.

I feel like someone could redub Weird Al's Word Crimes as Web Crimes and make it about stupid web design/code choices ppl make

Is the text in the Eye Scream section actually shaking or is that just my retinas being eroded

@skep, I did add a very small shake to it to convey the retina-eroding feeling, so good to hear that it works!

Really is a handy selector! Only issue I've noticed so far is that it messes with my usual way of doing back to top links, but I found a fix that works (per-section links as opposed to a single global one).
