Absolutely love this site!!!! I hope you don't mind me asking, but how did you make the guestbook? It looks awesome with the custom emojis and all but it doesn't look like any other guestbook i've seen.

Oh, hello!! Thank you so much for enjoying my site <33 The guestbook was custom, yes- but it would only be possible to make a similar one if you had access to a database in your site host. Neocities doesn't support that (most likely for simplicity's sake), so that was one of the reasons why I moved to a different host. Also, setting up the guestbook was a bit of a pain, but I wish to make a simple guide.
For context, my idea for it was more complex than the simpler guestbook codes out there, and I wanted full control over the customization. I also wasn't interested in needing to learn PHP just for one thing in my whole site, so I stood wrestling with AI coding just to get it to have everything I wanted. It's far from perfect, but I'm happy with the fact it works and I can manage messages in my own interface too ^^
I'll try and figure a simpler alternative to what I have, because I do know not everyone needs every single feature, so I do hope to get it down in the future!
