Interest check time! I am absolutely complete pure shit at making friends but would really like to get to know folks around here better. I was pondering the idea of a chill art/oc-centric 18+ (maybe 20+?) discord server (in the sense that membership would be restricted to adults, not that it would be a strictly nsfw thing), so here I am putting some feelers out to see if anyone would join such a server.

COMMENTS!!! I DID THEM!!! They should work pretty smoothly but please let me know if there are any bugs. Currently they're only available on the blog, but I'm working on adding them to the art gallery as well (which is up again, albeit in limited capacity).

Not going to lie, your article on hosts and The Neocities Dilemma was what finally made me think "maybe it's time". SSI alone has made it worthwhile! Price savings are always nice too, but WOW was it a lot of work to manage duplicate header code across this many pages.

That's great! SSI is such a time saver for static sites, and I'm happy to be the gateway into that world for people.
Making an extra post specifically about my hamburger menu revelation (https://kalechips.net/stuff/snippets?p=burger) because I'm so proud of it. It took a while to hack together but the end product is... presentable? And doesn't look like a second-class burger?

This is one of those things where intuitively I couldn't see why this *wouldn't* work but that's never any guarantee that it will. So I'm jazzed that I was right and it was possible in the end!

Responsive directory exists now (with bonus mirror so I can shove it into everyone's faces on the activity page). Tell your parents, friends, family, etc: https://kalechips.net/responsive

Working on making a mobile-friendly/responsive website directory (not a webring because I think they're annoying to deal with/manage). I'm just always pleasantly surprised when I go to a website and resize my window and it moves!!!

Love all the layouts! The link to "Your Website Needs to Work on iPhones" on the layout page is a 404, though.

And hey, fellow uncommon time signature enjoyer! 7/4 is one of my favorites, and 3/2 is probably my all-time favorite (a pain to play in, though).

Oops! I had moved the layout directory into another folder and forgot to update where that link was pointing. It is fixed now.

Anyway, thanks! I really love anything with odd numbers on top, or just stuff that forces you to split the measure into strange uneven groups of notes. One of my favorite songs uses 12/8 and 22/8 and it's such a headache to tap along to, but it's so fun!

Is it "Dance of Eternity" by Dream Theatre? That's got some wild time signature changes.

It's The First Circle by the Pat Metheny Group, but I will definitely check out that song!

(to be clear this is not a "friend server" because the whole point here is I want to make more friends! so if you're interested and we've never spoken before this please still say something lol)
interested ! though i am historically horrible at being active on discord
I would be interested! ^_^
!! im also interested in joining :D i also wanna interact with more people HDJKD
I'd definitely be interested! I've been wanting more art and oc spaces for adults to hang out
I'm extremely interested but also tend to be shy as hell on discord (but again, VERY interested)
I'm interested! OC and art servers tend to be lovely, and I'd love to meet more folks from Neocities.
im interested!! but i am also shy ;;w;;
Maybe!
