[baileylockheart]

I've lightly suggested some of my moots and friends to make websites but internally I am BEGGING 😭😭 very few of them want to and it makes me sad bc I know it's a lot of work at the beginning but it's SO worth it 😞💔

tbf a lot of them have their carrd/strawpage/renty stuff, and I love looking at those too!! a page to list out your interests and show off your aesthetic? that's a good thing no matter how you do it, as far as I care, but COME ON 😭

SO MANY PEOPLE don't want to make websites, but complain about wanting more color options on their social media sites? more customization than a pfp and a header?? less censorship??? a safe place to talk about your interests without getting bullied???? LIKE THERE IS ACTUALLY SUCH A SIMPLE ANSWER TO THAT

neocities guide - why you should build your own html website

do you miss the charm of the 90s/00s web where sites had actual personality instead of the same minimalistic theme? are you feeling drained by social media and the constant corporate monopoly of your data and time? do you want to be excited about the internet again? try neocities!!

what is neocities?

neocities is a free hosting website that lets you build your own html website from scratch, with total creative control. in their own words: "we are tired of living in an online world where people are isolated from each other on boring, generic social networks that don't let us truly express ourselves. it's time we took back our personalities from these sterilized, lifeless, monetized, data mined, monitored addiction machines and let our creativity flourish again."

why should I make my own website?

web3 has been overtaken by capitalism & conformity. websites that once were meant to be fun online social spaces now exist solely to steal your data and sell you things. it sucks!! building a personal site is a great way to express yourself and take control of your online experience.

what would I even put on a website?

the best part about making your own site is that you can do literally whatever the hell you want! focus on a specific subject or make it a wild collection of all your interests. share your art! make a shrine for one of your interests! post a picture of every bird you see when you step outside! make a collection of your favorite blinkies! the world is your oyster !! here are some cool example sites to inspire you: recently updated neocities sites | it can be fun to just look through these and browse people's content! space bar | local interstellar dive bar creature feature | halloween & monsters big gulp supreme peanutbuttaz | personal site dragodiluna linwood | personal site patho grove | personal site

Oh no not me making a website about good omens

Web design project - a website made based on good omens.

It took 20 hours of continuous work, but had animations, music playback, a calculator, changing the theme from light to dark and a couple of other interesting things.

When you click on their pictures, Crowley and Aziraphale begin to move forward. Initially, however, I planned to place them on the same line so that Aziraphale was always a little ahead and Crowley could not catch up with him, but in this case the animation did not work. I had to place the innefable husbands on different lines.

Also, when you change the theme of this page to hellish, the feathers on Aziraphale's wings begin to turn black, and Crowley simply disappears, blending into the background

The light and dark themes represent heaven and hell, even if it's obvious.

The music buttons play, pause, or mute the opening soundtrack for Season 1 of Good Omens. By the way, very nice music.

Thank you for your attention, I will be glad to hear your opinion, sorry

and in fact there are many more things, but I'm too shy to show them. Let's say...pages about fanarts and fanfiction, misterious button...well a lot of things as i said

I hope I do well and get a pass.

Going to put all this in its own post too by popular request: here's how you make your own website with no understanding of HTML code at all, no software, no backend, absolutely nothing but a text file and image files! First get website server space of your own, like at NEOCITIES. The free version has enough room to host a whole fan page, your art, a simple comic series, whatever! The link I've provided goes to a silly comic that will tell you how to save the page as an html file and make it into a page for your own site. The bare minimum of all you need to do with it is JUST THIS:

Change the titles, text, and image url's to whatever you want them to be, upload your image files and the html file together to your free website (or the same subfolder in that website), and now you have a webpage with those pictures on it. That's it!!!!! .....But if you want to change some more super basic things about it, here's additional tips from the same terrible little guy:

That last code by itself is: <meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="0; url=001.html"> Change "001.html" to wherever you want that link to take people. THIS IS THE REASON WHY when you go to bogleech.com/pokemon/ you are taken instantly to the newest Pokemon review, because the /pokemon/ directory of my website has an "index.html" page with this single line of code. Every pokemon review has its own permanent link, but I change that single line in the index file so it points to the newest page whenever I need it to! While I catered these instructions to updating a webcomic, you can use the same template to make blog type posts, articles or just image galleries. Anything you want! You can delete the navigational links entirely, you can make your site's index.html into a simple list of text links OR fun little image links to your different content, whatever! Your website can be nothing but a big ugly deep fried JPEG of goku with a recipe for potato salad on it, no other content ever, who cares! We did that kind of nonsense all the time in the 1990's and thought it was the pinnacle of comedy!! Maybe it still can be?!?! Or maybe you just want a place to put some artwork and thoughts of yours that doesn't come with the same baggage as big social media? Make a webpage this way and it will look the same in any browser, any operating system for years and years to come, because it's the same kind of basic raw code most of the internet depends upon!

Schmeb You Unlocked pages

Scans of images from the Schmeb You Unlocked pages. Sorry about the black line intersecting them, as on the website itself the image were fractured, and I had to reconnect them.
