The brand new site layout is finished and all pages (minus the graphics/credit page, I will fix this tomorrow since its a lot of editing) Should be displaying the new layout! Have a look around, super happy with how this turned out and it's nice to have my site actually resemble one of my main aesthetics! Big thanks again to Punkwasp for creating the template!

I also forgot to add it to the to-do list but god I wanna reduce the size of some of these images(Especially my art)because they take forever to load as is

Admittedly a little nervous people won’t like the design of the new site because it’s certainly less image/gif heavy, especially the homepage (except on pages that are about viewing images like ocs or the gallery/commissions) but at the same time it still has the exact same pages as the old layout so really it’s just an aesthetic change to something more organized/sleeker (which is what I wanted) then (1/2)

The design of my current site which is admittedly pretty amateur (I literally put images/stamps everywhere I wanted to because I thought it looked cool and I didn’t know about the tag till recently for breaking up contents hence all the giant plant dividers). Either way I’m happy with how it’s turning out so I hope others will be too! (2/2)

Either way I saved a copy of the site in its final state like this to my computer so I’ll see if I can figure out a way to upload an archive of it to the new layout

@punkwasp Thanks!! I haven't uploaded the new layout yet but i'm using your Aurora template! I love how organized it is and the accessibility features too! :3
Hey wouldn’t it be really funny if I finished transferring all my sites pages to the new layout tonight

The light and dark mode styles are done so now it’s just reformatting and copying text/images from pages and it’ll be up and running

The verdict is that I can not In fact do this though I did actually format several pages to the new layout, exactly 1/2 of the site. So hey we’re making progress
Started modifying a new layout and it looks super nice, I thought it might take longer to update my site but who knows I think I might be able to have this new layout out by the sites birthday (not certain on it but there’s a possibility since it’s mostly just copying and pasting text into the new layout. The general structure is done!)

There’s still some new stuff I wanna implement long term (like- an actual gallery instead of drop box links) but that’ll likely be after the site undergoes it’s new layout change

Ok so on a related note to the last post does anyone have some good and responsive site layouts/templates or where to find some (free or not I don’t mind)

I think I found the template I’d like to use as it also contains accessibility features I want to add to my site but anyone is still welcome to suggest one still!
Toying around with the idea for a new website layout in my mind, I’ve grown really fond of the one I have but I also want something with a bit more flexibility for modifications and is generally a lot easier for people to use/view. This’ll be a long term project as I’ve only kinda just started thinking and as a result gotta go layout hunting for one I like that’s also mobile friendly

I also dunno yet if I wanna go for a completely different aesthetic or stick to something similar (I might end up learning how to use style swappers for this cause I have a very distinct idea in mind if I do wanna go for something completely different)

Again it’ll be a long process cause It’s the middle of the semester now and college is kinda getting a bit heavy in regards to work so this’ll likely be something that happens when I’m on break or slowly in phases
