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!

(i dont use neocities replies often and idk how to reply to your comments so sry lol) thats cool! I don't really plan on hosting my files externally unless i REALLY have to, but for the guestbook ill stick with an embeded one hosted from elsewhere. Html comment box looks good, but its missing is custom emojis. I seen like 2 sites somehow have custom emojis on HCB and I rly wish i knew how to do that.

I've been meaning to make the remaining Rain Ring assets, but the fact I'm struggling to render bitmap fonts natively in Linux is bothering me

I really feel they should figure out a way to get CSP to be Linux native, due to how great of a software it is. But I know there may be some Wine workarounds, just ain't sure about them.

Recently switched to Linux as well, I'm definitely missing Clip Studio Paint, but imo Krita is a pretty good alternative. (& it's free so if you don't like it you can always move on and try something else). Best of luck on your Linux journey!

I decided to switch to Linux as well, even though I've never used it before. I'm really hoping I will manage to get at least some of my art programs running, because I hate changing programs and learning where every tool is over again :( but if it will be necessary, it is what it is...

Looking to switch soon myself. But I'll probably dualboot for a while just to make sure everything works on Linux before fully dropping it. Unfortunately naitive linux art programs have been having problems w/the X11 to Wayland switch, but I haven't tested my suite yet to say much (and honestly it's a confusing topic for me...)

I wonder if Winboat can run them? Though, that program is still a WIP and I haven't messed with it.Or maybe trying some weird running through Steam/Proton shenanigans that I've done before with some programs. I'm not familiar with either Clip Studio or Ibis, but I've gotten FL Studio working.

I use Clip Studio on linux! You do have to do a but of work/configuration with Wine but it works! Raidenthephantoms on youtube has a tutorial on how to do it ^^
