#it's mainly HTML and CSS

had a general question about whether people even use spacehey or not because i've been meaning to make a lil page of my own on there but i dunno if it's worth it...?

felt like i was going crazy yesterday trying to set up a login system for this website 😭 it was like i was back in college again!

man i'm kind of sitting here regretting the fact that i launched my utau site on carrd because i didn't know neocities was a thing, but by the looks of it a neocities site has the potential to be better in literally every single way (read: i am still mad that carrd's audio player is so broken)

So this evening I've been working on a way to make it easier to add filters to blog pages without JS. This is mainly an alternative to isotope, commonly used in icon, media, downloads, and portfolio pages. CSS only solutions, especially like this, can be intimidating to look at even if you're not new to CSS.

I'm hoping this will take care of the bulk of the work/the more complicated parts so that you can make more complex custom pages without the user having to wait for permission to use JS.

Here's a simple example with just display: none added to the CSS

And on my preview page, I've used the same code and added multiple filter groups and some CSS animations.

If you are familiar enough with HTML and CSS, you can try out what I currently have, but keep in mind you will still need to write most of the HTML and CSS yourself. I want to make a more detailed guide so that it's easier to use soon!

I love the way your writing is formatted on A03, do you have any tips? I started writing my own fic in Google docs but when I import my work into A03, it automatically does a double space. I don’t know if I have to manually delete the space or if there was a way to work around that?

Also any writing tips would be appreciated! Thank you!

Thank you so much!! I don't paste in from Google docs, but I've heard complaints from fellow writers about that exact issue over the years, unfortunately. If anyone seeing this knows a work-around, please jump in the comments! I have always pasted in from either Scrivener or Pages and have never had the automatic double space issue 🤷‍♀️

For formatting in AO3, I recommend this guide:

It explains all the basic HTML you need for formatting and also has a lot of CSS resources if you're interested in the more advanced stuff. I mainly stick to coding in images and messing around with the text formatting. I'll just save the fic/chapter as a draft and mess around with the formatting until I land on a style I like!

As for writing, my biggest overarching piece of advice is to just keep doing what works for you! Don't subscribe to arbitrary "advice" you read or see on the internet if it's not feeling right or doesn't make sense to you. Write when you can and have a place where you can jot down ideas when you get them. Remember that writing is creative play and an exercise in problem-solving (where are these characters going, how do they get from A to B, how can I weave in subtle hints to plot X, how do I show what this character is feeling without saying it, would this person really say/do that, etc.), so try to approach it with a mindset of openness and exploration. Read a lot and study what you read from a writer's perspective (this helps on the craft side of things). And just keep going! Writing is a muscle, and if you keep practicing, you'll feel yourself getting better at it!!

Researching Old Web Designs

Wanting to get back to coding for myself and coding things I enjoy, I researched 'old web' / 'old internet' GUI designs and became more fascinated. I've always liked the aesthetic but took time to look more deeply into the design aesthetic!

I also decided to test for myself if I could recreate the graphical user interface (GUI) designs using HTML, CSS and JavaScript (mainly for any functionality I want to add to the design). The above gif is me demonstrating a fake Windows 2000 PowerShell design. Again, this was built using only HTML, CSS and JavaScript!

There have been 20 versions of the Windows operating system and I will be designing from version 10-12; Windows NT 4.0 (1996), Windows 98 (1998) and Windows 2000 (2000)!

Maybe at the end, I will combine all my designs into one place for others to view them! As I do this, I will continuously learn about the history of the internet and the Windows OS.

What kind of discussion group do you have in mind?

I am once again daydreaming of making my own social media platform and how to make it not give a hoot about American laws (no relation to American soil, I'm European anyway) and be structurally resistant to enshitification through independence and community ownership unfortunately I am one inexperienced programmer with not much spare change to throw at such a gamble so I'm only daydreaming

[stunticonbreakdown]

Hey there! I'm not sharing my name, so here I go by Breakdown or any nickname from that 💥

Breakdown is my main (potentially special) interest, and has been for over three years, so I've dedicated my main blog to him! My asks are always open to anything as long as they're SFW!

I mainly reblog fanworks of him that other people post here, but that doesn't exclude my own sideblogs, and I do post original things here also!

My Tags:

Breakdown Collection: 💥 collection

Fact Posts: Breakdown Fact

+ more but I forgot

More Info About Me:

My pronouns are she/her, my other interests alongside Breakdown are Doctor Who and my favourite musician. I love drawing and painting, and have recently begun writing fanfic (and yes, it's of Breakdown...)! I'm also into coding, mainly on Python, but I'm learning HTML and CSS right now :]

Reclaiming the Web & GenZ Comfort

I love witnessing the recent wave of people (mainly Millenials and especially Gen Z) rejecting social media and trying to recreate the more 'Personal' Web of the early days of the internet. I am Gen Z myself, and though I had social media for the purpose of promoting my books and keeping in touch with people, I seldom use them now because I am so enamoured by the idea of the Personal Web. Deleting social media apps has been tremendously helpful to my mental and even physical health; it just feels great.

The Personal Web movement mainly relies on creating your own website (with Neocities, for example), forums, blogs, etc. I am planning on learning HTML & CSS, so hopefully in the future I'll be able to join the club, but for now I think Tumblr is a good platform for simple blogging like this. Sure, it has social media aspects, but that disconnect it has from celebrity culture and short-form content really makes it a good start (not sponsored, haha).

So yeah, let's reclaim the internet and push away celebrity/corporate culture and AI brainrot. This movement makes me hopeful for the future generation. I can only speak of Gen Z, but I think a decent amount of people have realised/lived the consequences of the internet from a young age, also referred to as 'internet trauma' by many. So here's hoping we reinvent the internet to make it more human again (and protect children from it, especially at its current brainrot state). I believe in us.

STARTING POINT

When I made this sideblog, it was mainly to have a sort of a digital diary to track my learning progress. I thought it'd be a just me and my few mutuals in here. But to my surprise, the introduction post received a warm welcome from the Studyblr and Codeblr communities! 💗 Thank you so much for the support. I'm really excited to get started on this journey.

1/100 days of code, 250523

☑ CSS Frameworks: Bootstrap

A few weeks ago, I bought a web development course on Udemy. I made some progress, but I wasn't getting consistent in my learning.

So, to fix that, I decided to take part in the famous challenge.

✨100 days of code ✨

Boy! One hundred days! Just the sound of it is frightening.

But I'm determined to give it a solid shot.

My plan for these coming months is to learn coding every day for at least 90 minutes.

In the real world, I'm a user experience and interface designer, and hopefully by the end of this challenge, I'll be able to bring some of my designs to life with code.

Resources that I'm using :

Colt Steele' web development course ( Udemy )

Web Design with HTML, CSS, JavaScript and jQuery ( Book set )

The odin project ( Website )

Kevin Powell ( Youtube )

Web Dev Simplified ( Youtube )

Alright, Google is zero help with this (every variant of what I'm asking for just floods me with SEO-optimized results for exactly the opposite of what I'm looking for), so...

In my day job, I'm a web developer, mainly. I've got a good deal of experience working with HTML/CSS/JS for front-end UI development, so when I decided to build a content management system for my game project- which is going to be a bunch of pages and menus and buttons and selectors and stuff- it seemed like a natural choice to just build it as a web app, using those skills I already have. It wouldn't be hosted anywhere- the idea would be to just load index.html on localhost and work from a local browser window offline- but I figured I could prototype it pretty quickly with good old-fashioned divs and CSS.

Eeeeexcept I can't do that, actually. The purpose of the app is to manage a directory full of a bunch of structured custom content files- maps, units, sprites, yada yada yada, and lots of small individual changes will happen to a lot of different file resources. Browsers are bad for this, because they rightly have a lot of security protections against webpages accessing the user's filesystem. While I thought the File System API would just let me prompt the user for access to the content folder, and then just work with those files freely from there, that... is apparently a very experimental feature that Firefox doesn't support yet. Seems like a bad choice of thing to rest the entire functionality of the app on.

So what I'm looking for is... is there a framework somewhere for building desktop apps (so I can access local files easily) that uses HTML/CSS/JS for front-end UI development? Something like a browser that's not a browser and doesn't have those inherent security protections to get around?

i like to ask a question why did you started to be a artists in the first place. I just curious ( p.s love your artwork)

THANKS SO MUCH and i started drawing because i was on the internet a lot as a child. things on the internet around 2013 had a lot of bright colors and movement and i wanted to make things like that too

i started out coding in html and css, making little sprites and what not, but i also looked at young animators like banithekitty, taxicab, swiftkhaos, kay2036, splashkittyartist, koolkitty100, any warrior cats animator under the sun, watching speedpaints, series like homestar runner and the noob adventures, old vhs soviet cartoons and other more full production handdrawn styles...

i started out with animation, i liked seeing things move, i began to draw static things maybe a few weeks after doing animation

(10 yr->15 yr)

i did oc and warrior cats animations mainly. i only started drawing humans/humanoids in 2019, and started drawing full pieces traditionally around 2022. big charcoal fan

here's a hit piece from when i was 9
