Question for my fellow shrine writers: Do you like to explain all of the backstory of something, assuming the reader will mostly just be reading your page? Or do you link to other/better explanations? Sometimes I just want to get to the fun obscure part so I link wikipedia, but I don't know if anyone ever actually follows that.

I always (wrongfully) assume that anyone visiting my shrine already knows what the thing I'm talking about is but I still want to do an introduction out of politeness so I write a pretty simple summary of the story of the thing at the start and then I get to the actually interesting part

no looking yet it's not finished! lol idc. i have actually had this one like since the beginning of my site, but it really needed an upgrade since it was pretty much just hard to find links for my own convenience

i am less sure if this layout works for other shrines, i like the general layout actually i just wonder if the file folder themeing still applies

thoughts on the new shrine layout? the decap robot organ one is just a test to see how the new format can be changed. i think i might want to change the file background colors to better match the background image. but what do you guys think?

I really like it! looks very pretty and the tab format makes it very easy to separate information and less overwhelming

OMG new shrine layouts looks absolutely delightful! I agree with @samsolarsystem the tabs are a wonderful idea for the shrine! Also a good reminder I need to watch 'Operation Mincemeat'.

i did it im making a different shrine layout. right now its mincemeat themed but i think something like it can work for a lot of my shrines

astersarchive's avatar astersarchive 1 week ago

really proud of myself actually because i coded this one from scratch and just a little reference of my other pages

oh you are makingn me so tempted to try again at creating unique shrine pages (mostly becuase the navigation of a long scroll sucks now that some of my shrines are crazy long) but also also for the vibes

yes yes yes!!! i love when sites have shrines that are in a completely different format from the rest of the site in order to match the vibes of whatever the shrine is for... half the reason I created this site was to have a peter sellers shrine. Although now I think the Dr. Strangelove shrine is my magnum opus. I would LOVE to see your operation mincemeat stuff get its own special little shrine page !!!

Honestly the Minecemeat one feels like a stub lol compared to say, my 5000 Fingers of Dr. T or Peppers Ghost shrines that are genuinely getting unruly. I dont have much to say about Mincemeat im just rotating them in my mind. but i think if i try to do all of mine like that ill burn myself out so ill startwith a couple and they can be the special exceptions :]
