Guys, what were the hardest pages for you to design so far? I know I still have a crazy amount of pages and assets to make, but if I were to say it, both the about page and the main page were kind of a pain in the butt in their own ways lol. What about you? :7

I donβt have that much variety in how my pages are constructed (style makes a huge difference, so they can look distinct anyway), so my first page was definitely the most difficult since itβs not only the most complex but also I did it from the ground up. I WOULD like to try different html layouts but it is hard for me to think of any pages I could add that would merit their own really unique html.
@ocpdzim Oh yeah- my home page was a tough one to come up with :'P I got punished by the grid system various times lol, the first layout turned out super clunky... but I'm glad I managed to go further with the CSS and actually learn how to properly use the system xD Well, in my case, I've decided to give each page in the navbar its own unique style and grid, but following a certain pattern. I personally think that-
-if you were to make a page that has an entirely different aesthetic or is meant to feel like a different space, you should go for a different layout :] It truly hits differently, just like entering in someone else's bedroom or house lol
definitely my homepage as well! everytime i code a page i usually try a new thing, and for my homepage it was the css grid since i had coded a grid MANUALLY for a previous page and was dying to find something 'better'. i still havent mastered it and never will. hell on earth πππΎ!
@mani Oh boy, same :'D Basically every time I'm working on a particular page, I randomly get that urge to reinvent the wheel and make something new entirely from scratch, but I also don't want to overcomplicate things :P It also doesn't help that I have a thing for asymmetry- I always find myself adding new rows and columns for the sake of getting something less perfect! Painful indeed, but always so gratifying! ^^
Probably my blog page! It uses javascript to generate the posts from a dictionary instead of me writing the actual html!
@sundered-space Oh wow, that sounds so interesting! It must save you from a whole lot of work, huh? :] So far, the only part of my site that's heavier in JS is the fun fact panel! I've added a total of 15 facts, and can say it took me a while to figure out how to randomize them every time the page loads lol
