Part of me wants to add a cooking section to my site but then I would have to also have to learn how to take pictures. Food photography is almost its own art.

I've been thinking of doing almost the same thing! I hadn't actually considered how tricky it'd be to get a good picture of a dish, especially because I don't have a decent camera lying around. There's probably a ton that goes into such an image

My guess is that properly plating the food and using the correct lighting would go a long way. And using photo filters you can probably get away with a phone camera. Real cameras are much harder to use correctly than software cameras. But yeah, you at least have to be ready for your photo to not come out how you expect.

That is probably the case yea. I was thinking of perhaps taking the pictures outdoors, as I don't think I'll ever get good lighting inside. It could also be an opportunity to learn how to touch up photos in an editor to make them more presentable!

Not sure how many of you all knew but I used to be an image board admin for a small alt board. I took the board offline a long time ago for reasons but kept the archive of it up. I coded it from scratch and was pretty proud of the software but was never proud of the content. I finally took it completely offline and replaced it with a portal to my other sites: https://board.goeshard.org/

Thanks. I wish I could say I had as much time to do page updates as I did when I started this. The time will come again, I'm sure. I'm glad you like the design. I sometimes feel like its rare for anything visually simple to be appreciated on neocities so it's nice to hear.

No problem! It's so cool to find someone else who is also interested in ancient Germanic culture, your library page (the Edda especially) has been very useful!

Been a while since I posted an update. Having a job changes things up. I wish I had got a special background and color for the prayer section but maybe I'll add that later.

I'm grateful to have a job again but I miss having time and energy to make web pages all day, too.
