we really should start downloading stuff and owning copies of things we like. art will always outlive its creator <3

I accidentally deleted your reply to my comment! but it turns out deploy to neocities struggles with large batches of large image files. I was accidentally trying to upload big ass pngs which wouldn't push through

strange my site says it updated some hours ago but the updates themselves aren't showing up? could this be a deploy to neocities issue?

I've been working on a minecraft page but I think I'm going to not push it live in the next update like I initially planned because the personal website format just SUCKS for documenting minecraft worlds. I will be making video logs instead as I rightfully should

as I write about my ocs I finally butt heads with my self-imposed rules and came across a case where it's a limitation that I don't like. I'm going to be removing the "no graphic/explicit material" rule in the next update. I only put that there because I don't want people to jerk off to what I write but that's impossible... who am I to dictate what people jerk off to let me write my evil writings!!!!!!

wholeheartly agree with this. I keep copies of all the VNs I like on a hard drive because the porn game sites I download them from will inevitably die!
I wish I adopted this idea sooner - there's quite a bit of art from Japanese Geocities sites (for an old game nobody knows/remembers) that's just gone forever now. I have a piece on the pinboard in my room that was printed out in 2005 and it may be the only surviving copy of this particular piece of art.
the online art community definitely influenced a lot of how we see art. a lot of arguments for not reposting art lie heavily on the monetization of art, which is an entire thing that also sucks. on the other hand is the intimacy of the art; I wouldn't want others repurposing something special that I created. but then if I really didn't want that to happen, I would know to not just share it online
art seeps deep. it's kinda wrong to birth such a thing into a big world only to leash it up. we really can't control what other people do to our art but I don't think we should see that as a bad thing unless it literally kills you or something
