also did a little work on altar page, prep for adding information and updates
also i put my url into that website carbon calculator and it got a D score :( which is 0.56g of CO2 produced every time someone visits gw what the hell. mad upsetting as an envi sci student. but as a bad/new coder not sure what to do about it. the website only linked to a £17 book on sustainable web dev and a directory of 'green web hosting services'. more research required on my end it seems.
but mildly funny now that if you google girl-wonderlost.neocities (because this site stores the info whoops should've read disclaimer) one of the first hits is a link to that site and part of the preview says 'This [my site] is dirtier than 56 % of all web pages'
cleaning up stuff. just discovered < a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"> to force open link in new tab, good for my iframes (even though i read iframes are 'bad practice' somewhere. whatever.) #htmlqueen. turns out that noopener thing is to avoid tabnabbing. what a world we live in.
I read somewhere that modern web browsers treat all 'target=_blank' links as having an implicit 'ref=noopener'. So you don't need to add it unless you are looking out for people who haven't updated their browser in about 7+ years.
plus new old song featured on about page (reminded about this one by ancientcrypt. tech 's album page)
obviously i could put the images on top of the overlay, but then they won't have the orange cast on on them yk. was thinking that i could make coordinates of the overlay clickable that correspond with the images underneath, but would they stay consistent to the location of images if the page is resized/on different sized monitors??
i also don't even know what i've gonna have displayed on click so maybe that's step one here :/ anyways if this made sense to anyone and you have html tips for a poor girl who can't code well lmk
altar pg now has fun little candle effect (even if this preview isn't showing it for some reason)
your musings on the itch / identity remind me of the youtuber "heaven sent honey." she talks about developing identity & self-mythology; might be up your alley.
i'll definitely check her out it's always interesting to see others discuss that murky concept
but also i love poking through people's changelogs and old versions of their sites. to grow is to change and all that
fulfill your dreams. the only thing stopping you is yourself.
well that was all the convincing i needed
