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 miiiight've just had an eureka moment on how to fix my main page... which also lead me to fix the behavior in my about page! I'll release it once I've got the structure nailed down and some text I'm satisfied with ;]

I'll be adding the final textures for the main page (except for the big poster panel) tomorrow! I've been pretty busy and tired lately, so I didn't do much progress. I can say I'm only coding when I have some free time or energy to paint and edit things lol.

Alrighty, now I only have one panel left! I hope to add a carousel mechanism to it, so that you guys can swipe between the posters n' stuff! ^^
Heya there! I just stumbled upon your page, and can say I dig all the colorful vibes and the cartoonish aesthetic! Keep up the funky n' cool coding work! :]

Well guys, today was kind of a busy day for me! I implemented a random fact system for the fact panel, fixed some weird behaviors in the guestbook (again), and hope to add the remaining textures a bit later.

I'll also focus on messing with my about page's layout tomorrow! I gotta test some of the design ideas I had ^^ And speaking of layout... it seems my thumbnail image will never look right :'D

Dang, I'm with the weird feeling my brain wants every page to feel unique, just like that guestbook section :'D Idk about it though, since I wanted the pages in the navbar to follow a certain line of appearance (as you saw when I matched the socials tab with the home tab), and then make all the other pages you can visit different. Eh, I'll see what I do! Hopefully it'll turn out cool in the end :P

You know what... I'm already thinking on ways to fuse the best of both worlds, and can tell it's gonna look awesome >:] I'll give it a test drive on my About page design, since I already started working on it-

Hello there! I Hope you're having a good day/night. I'm really glad to have my site added to the Soho neighborhood, but I'm afraid you forgot to add my description to it- I recall writing it when I submitted my site for you to review. Do I need to write it again for you to add, or do you still have the one I wrote? Thanks for your time and patience!

You've got a pretty unique aesthetic going on here- I don't think I've seen a page that feels like it's slightly being pushed by wind yet, so that's interesting lol. Your art looks very detailed as well! Keep up the neat coding work! ^^

Oh wow, your site looks so cozy and nice- I love those aesthetics with a handmade kind of vibe lol, they feel like an invitation to explore and have a good time! โก Also, the birds section is an awesome one - birds are some of my oldest inspos, and it's great to see other people enjoy them too! Keep up the superb coding work there! ^^

Aw, you're very welcome! I'm glad to share what I enjoyed about your page :D And thank you so much!! It means a whole lot you enjoyed my site and arts so far :']
Erm... guys, do you have any ideas on what I could do to embed one of my songs? I've tried using Catbox, but all I'm getting is a server error, and using Google Drive is being more convoluted than I thought :'7 Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hmm, that's actually a pretty neat idea! The sad part is that I don't have discord :[ Thank you so much for suggesting though! I'll definitely consider it if I don't find other options, since I've been thinking about having discord for a while :P

using google drive's not too complicated in my experience... just open the file in a new tab, grab the file id from the url, and then add it at the end of this link: "https://drive.google.com/uc?id=". it also has to be shared with the setting "anyone with the link can open" too i think

Oh, I ended up doing something really similar! Though I only figured it out after a while of browsing tutorials on how to do it... I also had an "&" in the middle of the id (had forgotten html uses a special language for those symbols), so yeah, I had some head-scratching moments :'D I'm glad I managed to get it to work in the end though! Thank you for the help nonetheless, Tz! ^^^

Oh wow Starrs, I had no idea someone had the awesome idea to simplify things- thank you so much for sharing!! โญ
I donโt 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 itโs 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 ๐๐๐พ!
@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
