Neocities

does anyone have recommendations or advice on how to implement a gallery in neocities? i'm hoping there's a way to have tags so ppl can filter by year or theme or smth, i'm not rly a fan of having everything just on its own page :s

I don't know how tags work but i do have some advice: make lower quality versions/jpegs of your drawings with links to higher quality versions or it will take FOREVER to load. like ages. 1000 years worth of loading images. that's about it my gallery isn't really organized

@owthehedge yeahhh for real, i've found the most incredible artists and then only been able to see like 2 of their works after a 5 minute load, it's so genuinely sad :[

Try this https://www.w3schools.com/css/css_image_gallery.asp for the art gallery itself. And this https://codepen.io/sadness97/pen/bGRPxmp?editors=1000 to categorize your art. Just add the art gallery code within the divs and change the link names to the tags you want. Also consider compressing your images, it may help with the loading issue
