that is wonderful to hear, thank you so much for sharing <<3!

wait ALL THE BUTTONS ARE PURE HTML/CSS?? WHAAAAT

Haha, yeah. I know sometimes (read: a lot of the time) these might break people's current button setup, but since my rule for the site is "no images used, code only" it became a requirement for me. Thank you so much for your praise, it means so much coming from you!

P.S. there is a play button to actually play America Online on that page, hidden somewhere. That's the current dumb project, hiding increasingly convoluted play buttons on every site.

I absolutely enjoyed the challenge of embedding the button on my site, it'll be live shortly. What an incredible project you've made with such a brutal limitation! Also I'll go look for that play button now lol

oh that's absolutely banger and I have to make something similar if I could

it would be a great idea to make the wasd nav bigger, colour it, loading screen entering a door or something to push the gamification nav experience me thinks. Unique idea! Reminds me of https://ellesho.me/

Thanks! And @chilblands I'll definitely keep those in mind if I come around to redesigning again (which will probably happen lol)

I'm really bummed out, but shit happens. Thanks for understanding

Best of luck! You can do it!

u got this tab. godspeed

sounds like a good move and you'll be happier for it :) good luck!

I wish you the best of luck, hope you do well!

oh fuck dude, best of luck on the job hunting!!

job hunting is agonizing, but if i had any advice: if you haven't heard of it, check out hiring.cafe. i landed a position i stayed with for 15 months through it, and while it's not perfect it is INFINITELY better than sites like indeed or linkedin for finding positions to apply for. good luck!!

Best of luck to you! I personally think the hiatus is fine, this website is just a hobby I assume but even if it wasn't then either way it's still good to give yourself time to rest and work on other important matters :]

@skigothy Wow, I was actually hoping there was another site like Otta.com out there. (No I will not call them by their new name.) i will definitely use what you sent instead, thank you!!!

Good luck tab, we’re all rooting for you! As much as it sucks to have to put a creative project on hiatus, it won’t last forever. You got this!!!

BEST OF LUCK DUDE. you as a human matter more than your website and always will

I can take a look! I prefer email if possible (mail@tabf5.com)

I actually already took a look myself, try moving the script tag with the Screenjesus code into the very beginning of body, instead of at the end of head

ok

It's almost working! Not sure why the navbar is still in it, maybe make sure that's in body too and not outside of it

Then again, clicking on them goes straight to the pages that are supposed to be in an iframe... hope the link is still useful!

You can have a page that's only supposed to be in an iframe run some JS to detect if it isn't and then redirect to another page. I do something similar for my own site but the basic gist is: if(window.self == window.top) { document.location.href = '[LINK TO PAGE HERE]'; } This will also change the thumbnail to whatever the redirected page is.

This might be a bit tricky to test offline (this largely depends on how you're linking stuff) unless you can run your site as a local server. I use the method described here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/27986564

Thanks for the heads up! I'll test these tricks out when I have some free time

what hydromecha said is way better, definitely do that!

Ok I think I've got it figured out (thank you hydromecha!) I added a script at the top of every iframe that checks whether or not the link has "embedded=true", and if it doesn't, it redirects to the iframe version of the page. Then I changed my iframe loader script to fetch every page with "embedded=true" as a marker that it was opened via fetch instead of standalone.

Also that somehow solved the thumbnail problem too??? Just updated all my pages and the thumbnails have styling now
