Blog

* This is my blog page! You can scroll through the box below to see every post.
* I do not have every post on its own seperate page, as that'd require me to copy/paste a lot. And I'm lazy. So you get this. Have fun :D

Been a long time.

In coming back to this site almost exactly 2 years after I originally created it (in its current form, at least) I've noticed that I don't hold as much of an attachment to the Deltarune theme as I used to. It's still a game I like a lot, but not enough to theme my entire webste around it. Honestly I don't really know what to do with it. I was thinking of making it look like a piece of lined paper with some CSS trickery to lean into my art theme, but I'm not really 100% on that yet. Frankly I'm not sure if this site will ever have a consistent theme, lol. If I did the paper theme, I could try drawing up some sketchy little guys to decorate it.

On top of realizing I'm not as big of a fan as I was of the site as a whole, I've noticed that some links that I used to have are now defunct. This, unfortunately, includes the original inspiration for the site's layout, Crisis City. I'll likely have to remove it, as the image for it is broken too. I'll be going through and editing out all of the broken links in the near future. I say "near future" and not "right now as I'm typing" because I have the tendacy to say I'm going to code and then Not Doing That.

In saying that, expect this site to eventually change. Not sure when, but it will probably happen at some point. Maybe I'll entirely scrap this site and remake it from the ground up. That seems like the best option to me right now.

I got my blog done!

That took a lot longer than it did on the past iterations of my site, even though this site has significantly less stuff going on behind the scenes. Weird how that works out. I procrastinated on writing this page a lot, and instead focused on stuff that was arguably less important (like my Spritesheet page). I got to it eventually, so I guess it was fine, but that tells you a lot about how I code, lol.

In older versions of my website I used seperate boxes for each blog post and contained them in a bigger box (like the one this text is in) to keep things somewhat coherent, but I think I'll be using just one container this time around to save myself around 10 minutes of extra coding. Being able to scroll through the main part of the page is just as good, so it gets to stay nice and simple.

I love the way this page has turned out so far, and I definitely feel like this page is more "me" than any other version of the site. The most previous one was way too bland, and the Windows one was just a copy of an OS and had little personaility put into it. This one is based off of a shared interest between me and my partner Ray, and as such makes me feel much more proud of the work I've put into it. I want it to feel like the Geocities and Myspace days, where you've sat down at the family PC and have gone onto the internet to find people.
