22/10/2024 - Here's another "I'm not dead!! Just really exhausted from life and have zero energy to work on this place" :(

Added small update to the Deltaring page as I've had to close submissions for it. I hope I'll be able to work on this place again... I have so many new things to add to this place, can you believe the Cable cast page is STILL missing Rayne??

I've gotten really into 3D Modeling this year, hopefully when I have the energy for it, I'll share some of the models I've made! I don't know when that will be though, I haven't even had the energy to switch to the website's October color scheme this year and at this point it's kind of too late in the month for that :(

Also added some Animation stuff I did last year to the Notice Board so hopefully that spices things up a bit!

23/05/2024 - Geez, it's been a while x( Ever since I got a proper job, I've had little to no energy to work on this space and the free time I do have is just spent zoning out at home or working on OC Art.

I'm not quite sure when I'll be capable to do proper updates again, but I did do some maintenance to dead links.

A lot of my audio files were hosted through Discord and a bunch of pages have stopped playing sound so I'm just fixing up those.

I hope to be able to consistently work on this place again, but for the time being, other things have to take priority x(

Thank you everyone who is still visiting! I'm glad this silly place is still getting enjoyed by people!

11/12/2023 - Been fussing around here and there, particularly I've been messing with some pages from the Cable AU and their organization, but nothing that exciting as of yet lol

I'm going to be doing another round of mass editing things, but the reason for this, is because I want to clean up how I organized the links to the website.

Instead of having stuff like href="/home", my format has just been to have the entire link, because back when I first started working on the website, I was having trouble with setting up and the redirects getting all jumbled up was annoying

But since I plan to eventually get a custom domain once my money situation doesn't feel like I'm going to get the rug pulled from under me at any minute now, I figured I might as well get this out of the way.

I'm also on the process of reuploading the website's audio files somewhere else. I've just been using a private Discord server for that kind of stuff, but with the recent changes to the links, that format is likely to become a liability in the future

So yeah, expect to see changes to pages where seemingly nothing has changed. I'm just cleaning things up!

29/11/2023 - CHRISTMAS THEME IS IN! Now I know we're still in November, but I won't be around much this weekend, and I wanted to have this theme set up ahead of time, else I know it just wouldn't leave my mind!

I think the CSS variables are now fully properly set up and I had to make an exclusive class for some of the image decor I have so that it changes hue when these holiday themes are applied! (Easier than replacing image assets every single time lol)

Took a bit, and I also cleaned up some loose bits of inline code I could find. I think I managed to clean up most of the stuff I wanted to, and hopefully I won't run into any other issues hehe

I do want to be more experimental with these custom themes, I might look into ways to make them into toggles or something of the sort?? I'm still just trying to figure out how any of these scripts work!

If there's anything I missed, feel free to let me know either in the chat or guestbook or anywhere really!

Speaking of Guestbook, I do read all the messages I get on it! They've just become so many that it's become very overwhelming to respond to everyone ;_; But rest assured that I'm reading all of them and I appreciate everyone's kind words so so much!

28/11/2023 - Made some of the website's purples... purpler. Almost done setting up variables for the CSS, and I'm fixing up some coding crimes as I spot them hehe

This Home page has an uncomfortable amount of inline done in some of the elements, so I want to eventually clean that up and set up stylesheets for those as well! :'D But for now I'm focusing on the variables

24/11/2023 - New slideshow gallery is now on the main Home page! It took me three whole days of Frankensteining scripts, mashing CSS together and tormenting my poor friends with coding talk, bUT SO HELP ME, I DID IT!

I so badly want to properly learn how to Javascript, because the few attempts I did with coding it on my own were just... yeesh.

I think I'm learning the mindset one needs to be in to do it, so I'm looking forward to give myself increasingly frustrating projects I will struggle to realize! That's been my approach to learning everything I do and it's worked out so far, so???

Backstage changes, I'm in the process of setting up CSS variables for the colours on my website since I had no idea that was a thing to begin with?? It's extremely subtle and I doubt anyone noticed any changes but yeah.

Some colours on the website have been changed to be more consistent with the rest of the palette. There were like three different shades of a very similar light purple that existed on the website and those have all been moved into being the same shade :'D

Christmas theme might be viable after all, but I'll be honest, I really don't feel like drawing the Christmas version of my sona's splash art hahaha

18/11/2023 - Man. I love trying to make small edits to the website and accidentally ending up fixing problems that have been nagging me ever since I first made the place LOL

I finished the page for my League of Legends Fan Art and in order to celebrate me making a gallery page that actually has recent art and not stuff from over 10 years ago, I figured it warranted a minor reorganizing of the Artwork page!

I retired the Old Art Archives page and put all the categories in the same page, this time categorized by fandom and type of artwork. The way that menu was coded was also very headache inducing and it required a lot of fussing in order to make it properly responsive.

Turns out this was because of the use of left floaters lmao Don't blame me, blame whatever tutorial I snatched that code from without understanding the context in which it was originally getting used.

But yeah, uh. League of Legends is a game. The Aurelion Sol shrine continues to be an extremely poorly optimized page so that's going to be a WIP for a while.

I'm also debating messing with site themes ever since I did the Halloween palette swap. I found some tutorials that make the process a lot quicker to setup than what I had going on, so I might try and see if there's something I can do with that...

Could be fun to have a Winter/Christmas theme?

08/11/2023 - More awkwardly spaced out updates LOL But I do have an excuse this time, which is that I haven't actually been doing much of anything on the website this past month with the course and whatnot!

It's going alright so far, we haven't gotten to the Web Design stuff yet but the vibes seem really neat so far :) I've also been spending more time with my IRL friends as well, so that has left my computer time a bit more limited...

(Pay no mind to the "Playing League of Legends" status I have on Discord for hours erm-)

When removing the Halloween theme, I've made some minor changes to the CSS, mostly in matters in sizing and responsive layouts! Most notably I've changed the look of the Fanfiction lists so they're a bit more interesting looking.

I also added some animations I made these past months to the Extras section of the Cable AU pages! Speaking of the AU, I also updated the pixel art list to add some newer stuff to it!

I might try to go back to the original purpose of this website, which was to build an art archive. My next goal is to attempt to add my League of Legends artwork, but that does include the stuff I drew during the height of my Aurelion Sol hyperfixation, and that may end up being a Lot more art than what I can tackle at the moment lmao

Maybe I should just try to write a To Do list instead...

01/10/2023 - Happy Spooky month!! If I did this right, the website should be having a spookier (just orange) theme now, throughout the whole month of October.

I left some pages intact like the Commission info etc, and hopefully I managed to clear up most of the visual quirks before I made this live!

But yeah, you might be noticing the awkward two month gap between updates, but that's been because my mental health situation has kind of taken a dive, and while I have continued working on the website, writing the Update Logs has been the last of my priorities LOL

Anyway, you can check the Site Map for any new pages, I'll probably eventually set up some kind of "New!" label on it for stuff like that. Update logs will likely continue being sparse...

Also my Web Design course is starting next week and I am very excited for it!! Also cripplingly nervous lol I'm hoping for the best but genuinely don't know what to expect. I wonder if they'll let me use this website as a sandbox of sorts?

But anyway, take care of yourselves, I'm just posting to Tumblr and talking on my Discord if anyone wants to keep up with me :)

03/08/2023 - Been going through one of my moods of bouncing around from page to page to fix small pieces of code and whatnot :) I finished cleaning up most of my CSS pages and gave some adjustments to how the layout appears on ipad-like screens. I've yet to test it out on a proper real ipad but I do like how it turned from the Inspect mode :)

I also cleared some clutter off of this main page, particularly getting rid of the Spotify playlist which I don't think was really getting much use, and I moved the flag counter to that corner instead.

Another note, idk if anyone is reading this, but I'm so humbled by people's kind feedback on the website, it's been such a silly goofy project, I'm so grateful to hear that people have enjoyed it and that it's inspired them to get into making personal websites as well! I wish you all the best of luck, it means so much to me!
