First major update to my website!!

Before:

After:

☆ What's been added:

• ⟡ Pretty much everything lol.
• ⟡ Edited 'Dock' landing page.
• ⟡ Created main 'Artstuffs' art archive page.
• ⟡ Created the block drop-down menu thingy in the top left corner of each page for navigation and whatever (which took me three days straight to get to work x3).
• ⟡ Added 'Dino Nuggets :)' art blog.
• ⟡ Added 'The Allergic Creeper And The Bee ~' art blog.
• ⟡ Added background.
• ⟡ Edited 'Not found' error page.
• ⟡ Added some random gifs and stuffs I found off other neocities (I don't plan on making it a habit —especially when I can't properly credit the original creators, as I want the majority of the art featured here to be my own. But I don't see the harm in adding some, at least until I make my own, as these seem to have been created specifically to be shared around).
• ⟡ Created 'Resources'page.
• ⟡ Lots of editing.

So, after four-ish (more than that but I wasn't actively working on this until four months ago) months after being created, this website is actually coming along!!
This is pretty much how I want it to be, at least until I figure out JavaScript (this entire thing so far is only HTML and CSS). I'm simply going to be doing random updates from here and inproving this overtime, but right now, I'm pretty satisfied! ^w^

And I'm very proud of myself too! I made this whole thing with absolutely no previous knowledge on any coding stuffs, no pre-made templates, no JavaScript, just me, HTML, CSS, and a shit ton of random forums and tutorials that rarely got me exactly what I wanted so I had to frankenstein lots of them together!! :D

The only way I describe the whole experience as: is just a giant puzzle that you make up yourself, and you have to scavenge to find the pieces to build it with. But there's hardly any that fit right and half the time you can't even tell IF it's a piece, so you just chop up the ones that kinda fit, glue those together, and keep doing that until the puzzle at least resembles your original idea.

I know anyone who learned coding like a normal person is cringing at how this website's code probably looks like it's being held together by glitter glue, and I'm sure I will too down the road, but it's at least functional —hopefully. And apparently, beating my against a wall until the broken pieces of drywall formulate tha answer is how I learn, cuz' I know a lot more about web design than I ever thought I would! X3

Trial, error, and a shit ton of stubborn determination, baby!! :D

☆ As far as future plans:

• ⟡ I'll be adding more fleshed out articles for most of my artworks when I can.
• ⟡ Editing current art blogs, there's some possible layout changes and info to add + speedpaints n' things maybe.
• ⟡ Adding a button to pause gifs so that I can add little sprites hanging out around the pages (I believe I found a simple Script for it, but I'm not esting it out rn.).
• ⟡ There's going to be lil' pixel art guys all over this site when I'm done with it, I want it to be a scavenger hunt, each post will have random ones inside. Aka I'm gonna be making lots of pixel art of my favorrite characters and things!!!
• ⟡ Speaking of pixel art, I'm definitely going to be making some of those blinkies and stamps for my fav characters and franchises, and those tiny, itty-bitty, lil' emoji sprites~! >w<
• ⟡ Adding pages for the AUs I have, primarily the Ninjago AU I'm working on! owo
• ⟡ Adding wiki-type pages for my OCs and character headcannons/AUs.
• ⟡ I definitely wanna' make some blogs for my favorite things; fav characters; fav games; fav pokemon (GENGAR); etc.
• ⟡ And blogs for things I criticize: why wasn't Poppy Playtime chapter 4 split into two seperate chapters; Llorumi; the friggin' Minecraft movie as a concept; etc.
• ⟡ Will be adding an 'About webmaster' page eventually, was going to do it this update but I feel like I should be putting more thought and effort into it, as I want to talk a bit about the current state of social media for artists and my experiences with it, aka: why I'm making this website. Plus my art process, my likes and dislikes, and reviews and recommendations of my favorite media. :3
• ⟡ I'll add a home page once I add enough content to this site (more than just the art archive section), as of right now the landing page works well enough.
• ⟡ I wanted to add music to this site really badly but apparently you need to be a supporter to add audio files n' stuff (which I only figured out after a week of troubleshooting /-w-"). So that'll happen when I fill up the 1G storage of this currently free site. :)

Anywho, I'll peace out for now, expect updates whenever :3

OWO

(Will be updating randomly and look pretty simple for a while!! I'm actively learning html 'n css 'n stuffs rn, so just give me a little bit! -w-')
