quick update today, because i'm in too much pain to type! but i want to chronicle before too much time passes.
biggest stuff: i redid my oc pages, they now don't rely so much on iframes ( though they are still being used ) which is something i've been wanting to change for a while. they also got some aesthetic updates, as well as theme songs, which will play in between pages as you click around! maybe most excitingly, i'm actually filling them out. everyone has at least a completed "about" section ( riddled with awkward phrasings & typos i'm sure ) although i did slim down who has profile pages: now only characters who have content available to look at have cards on the main oc landing page. everyone will come back eventually, but it was just confusing before hahahah. i hope people have fun checking them out, and i hope i can improve my prose with time so that they're interesting to read!
i also published two free website templates for people to use, which are on my junkbox section. there are many templates out there, but i've always wanted to make some, so here they are!
what's new with me?
first: toulie is doing much better since last post. the perscription food we have her on worked wonders, and she didn't have any tummy trouble or anything swapping to it! it's expensive, but ... all my money goes towards is utilities & cats anyway, so i don't care lol. i'm so happy she's doing better.
second: artfight! this was my third year and probably my best year yet. i never succumbed to anxiety or self-loathing about my art like i normally do, i got some really beautiful drawings, and i drew a ton more than i thought i was able to. i think you can tell when you look at my pieces, but it's obvious that i hadn't drawn in a long time ... a lot of my anatomy, posing, general creativity, etc. feels really clunky in them, which is kind of depressing ... but at the same time, like, i don't feel too bogged down by it. i went into this with low expectations for myself i guess. it's mid-august and i'm still feeling motivated, so ... once this wave of debilitating pain passes, i hope i can actually commit to doing some studies. i really want to improve my art ... i feel so glum about my skills! ( but i'm not wallowing :D )
that's all. i gotta lie down for a while ... -_- see y'all later! take care!
