Neocities.org
Neocities CLI is a godsend. Certainly helps me with my executive dysfunction. Website development has also filled the gap that my current artblock has left behind. It's been (mostly) a very stress-relieving project for me, and I very much need that right now.

A minor (but productive) update. Mostly started a lot of things that will be refined later.
My current tablet has decided to get all buggy for the last few weeks and I am sick of it now. It's not full on dead, but it gets stuck on a specific command key (like ctrl + Z) and I have lost some drawings due to this. I'd either have to get repairs or buy a new tablet in it's entirety. Graphics will be harder to make now :/

I am so much happier with this current design than any other design I have made in the past. I made more assets myself instead of relying on others and that makes me feel a lot more proud / at home with my site. It took a bit more time, but that's fine. I'm hoping to add more features and get better at JS as time goes on. There will be plenty of experimental pages as well. Cheers!

Last post for a bit. For anyone who has a blog section on their page, what is the easist solution to impliment one on a static hosting site such as Neocities? I don't want to rely too much on external sites, but I will if I need to B^]

I'm planning for my blog to be a pretty central part of my site, but I've been struggling on ways to actually make it in a way that isn't tedious for me. I don't want a huge mess of HTML files, go back and edit them tediously if I decide to make layout changes, etc.

I used zonelets previously! (i've since switched to doing everything by hand but not due to any fault with zonelets itself)

Fellow followers, are you a Linux user >_>? If so, what distro do you use? I personally use Debian (Cinnamon DE because KDE has been buggy for me for some reason).

I might use Arch again though... I miss using the AUR. Both Debian and Arch have their own strong suits for sure. I enjoy stability but I don't really enjoy the apt package manager / flatpak all too much. It's hard for me to decide to stick with one.

(Also... I don't want to move because I am lazy <:D yes, I have everything in my home folder but still <:D)

Arch Linux, but I am thinking about switching because I'm not a fan with how packages are never split. (V4L2 to install ffmpeg, Avahi GUI Browsers, and Qt Assistant for KDE tools, seriously?) I've considered maybe trying out Nix OS.

I am redesigning this website again in its entirety and it will be up... I actually don't know when. The current filesystem is an absolute mess and I'm not really happy with the design of how it is currently. I am getting better at CSS / html though so that's a plus. I think this new site redesign is 1000x better-- trying out a lot of new things.

I am also fiddling with JS a bit which is something I haven't really done up to this point. Neat. Though I literally don't know anything.

I decided to put off the wiki idea for now, and I'm probably going to use a tool like tiddlywiki instead and host it on here. I've been kind of creatively unmotivated for the past while which is why I haven't really done much OC / art stuff as of late. I've been mostly making music, photo editing, and conceptualizing UI/UX designs.

When you feel like your competent enough with CSS, I highly recommend learning SASS: https://sass-lang.com/. I also recommend making a CSS style guideline, kinda like this in a text file: https://privatebin.net/?bb495f89bb3fe606#B5vpdXq8PkyZnVkG1gyNgLvcU99Q6Vu3qe36nRGixJ2R

I am using SASS currently, actually! Very useful, but I have not done the second thing you mentioned (though I have done similar-ish things in the past). Thanks a bunch for the suggestions B]
Hey! I really like your website! :D its very simple but the overall layout is very nice to look at. I also really enjoy your art. I never played patapon but the art style is such a huge inspiration for me-- it's just OOZING with charm.
