The site is no longer using a Discord Hook at all and sends comments by email! Rejoice! https://pixelglade.net.au/updatesarchive.html#form-handling-2

It's been taking some time, learning PHP and improving my Javascript, then getting it all working on a site. But form data doesn't use a Discord Hook anymore! (in other words- forms use PHP and Javascript now instead of just Javascript) https://pixelglade.net.au/index.html#form-handling

I've released a video with an overview of artwork styles on the PC98 and PC88 - hope you find it informative and interesting! Subtitles and transcript available. https://pixelglade.net.au/updatesarchive.html#pc98-video

Thank you! I use git already but the piece I was missing was how to integrate it with neocities. Sometimes I only need to upload a robots.txt or changes to the splash page since I keep only a redirect splash page rather than my whole site, so it looks like I can make a script to just upload those few files to neocities when I make updates . thank you again!

In Paint99: For sharpest text, it should be rendering with no anti-aliasing, but won't process until the text is confirmed from text editor. Visibility is problematic with bitmap rendering, so I'll look at alternatives. As for the FX button, that's currently unused, but I think it'll serve as a macro for FX since it seems a little superfluous otherwise.

Ok: addressed most of your suggestions! The AA font thing was very difficult to figure out, and I'm not 100% happy with the solution, but it's there. The only implementation I didn't get to were palette import/exports. I'm currently in the process of that, with a 16x16 stamp editor (palette->stamp). It might be a moment. Always down for more suggestions as well :)

You're quick! I tried the AA font. I see why you labelleld it sharp, sharpest, since it doesn't totally remove the AA but reduces it - which is an improvement! I wonder if the way to do it is to do some kind of thresholding so only the black pixels are left over? Not perfect but could work. I think Aseprite or Libresprite has some open source code where you could probably see how they do it.

Is there supposed to be options in "Effects"? Because I don't see any. Are they coming later?
Thank you! I've been meaning to update the vegan resources page with more recipes. I really like your artwork - the way you paint clouds in blue and pink is really lovely
thank you! :)
