i stumbled upon your blog post from 2024 titled "let me tell you about neocities" and wanted to tell you how much i enjoyed reading it as well as much i can relate to it. the advice you give to people interested in setting up a website here is very good too. ^v^ "the amount of self-expression happening on neocities makes it SUCH A JOY to browse" Soooo true!

people with art galleries on their sites... how do you organize your image folders? i'm trying to decide if i want to do it by series or by year or a mix of both... i'm not sure what makes the most sense or would be most convenient... HMMMMM

I put them all in one folder, name them by date (yyyy-mm-dd), then use a Python script to build the gallery page, sorting by date in reverse order so the newest works go first. If it gets too big, then I make a folder for thumbnails and do the same thing, linking the thumbnails to the full images when building the page with the script.

I tend to go either e.g./art/img/2025/MMDDtitle.jpg for general various works or e.g. /art/img/2025/souiumono/MMDDtitle.png for art that fits into a specific category subject-wise.

I do by series but you also have a way higher drawing output than me.... Doing both sounds inconvenient though X_X

i also did it by year, mostly since my gallery is sorted by year in the first place

I do themed pages but it kind of depends on how you want visitors to experience browsing your art
