🚧 What did you do to your website today?

I built my Bookbug page over the past couple days and finished it late last night (technically this morning)! I’m waiting to hear back on if I’ve been accepted into the club, but that’s not going to stop me from reading and reviewing this month’s book :V

emma’s place has had some more changes. these are the first for the new year!

you’ll definitely want to clear your cache for this update, a lot of it is appearance focused

  • nav bar links have been condensed. the life of emma section has been made into two category pages. this is in anticipation of future pages that will fit into both categories. care has been put into navigation. visiting a page in the category allows you to return to the top of that page, and also return to the page that is a category containing that page and related pages
  • the right border on the nav bar has been changed due to me figuring out me more and my borders being pride flag related
  • i’m in my pink era. so the page background color, and scrollbar colors have been updated. certain green colors have been left as they work fine i think
  • i’m using grid properties like align-items and align-content on the body to better adjust the layout of the page rather than relying so much on the height of elements

there is some writing on the site that needs to be updated. but i’ve done enough for now because my brain has rewarded me with a headache

Looking stylish so far. Keep at it once you’re feeling better.

I changed some css on the tidning-page. Now I use column-count rather than making the columns myself – very convenient!! I’ve yet to change all the other pages but will be doing so as soon as possible. Especially the long form-page, since it’s looking… some way or another atm…

In other news I have officially made a site for my friend and I :) It’s far from perfect (like if your screen is too tall it doesn’t function properly, for example) and has… nothing much on it as of yet. However, it’s been made and I’m happy with it! The look I was going for was ā€œalbum coverā€ ish and I think I nailed that actually :3

today I finally updated my site after several months of not doing anything. First i did some wireframes to figure what layout I want but right now Im just putting my site on nekowebs and Im trying to figure out how VS Studio is correctly reflecting what the site supposed to look like but nekowebs isnt? quite upsetting :smiling_face_with_tear:

If you want to start a thread in the help section with your site’s url and post full-size screenshots of how your site looks in VS vs Nekoweb, we might be able to help.

I made a big update to my old website version archive browser over the weekend. Previously it was just a list of links, it’s pretty nice to see all the thumbnails now!

https://version.stefanbohacek.dev

(Apologies for the lack of alt text, and other possible accessibility issues, still working on this!)

A four-column grid showing thumbnails of old versions of my personal website. The text above the grid reads: StefanBohacek.com Version Browser 2.0 I created my first personal website, StefanWithoutAnEnd.sk in February 2009. In May 2011 I moved to a new domain, FourTonFish.com. And finally, in 2022 I switched to StefanBohacek.com. Note that some images, fonts, links, and certain other features may not work. Visit the current version of the site

I had two different accounts at the same web host, one for my partner and one for me. Then the host changed around their account offerings and raised prices, which made having everything on one account the most economical option.

Today I started the process of moving everything over. One of my sites, which had been on my partner’s account for load-balancing purposes, was easy to move over. It was a subdomain at one account and now it’s a subdomain at the other account. Since it’s the same host I don’t even have to mess with any DNS settings.

My partner’s site is another matter, since it’s the primary domain for the account I can’t remove it. The good news is they don’t really use it. So I can afford to cancel the account, wait for them to take it down, and then restore it.Then everything will be back up and running at its new home.

I’ve placed a bit of artwork on the bottom-right corner of my site whenever somebody’s using a screen that’s at least 1440px wide.

Anybody got a reason why I shouldn’t push this to my server?

Not me! I think it’s kind of neat, actually, to have bits of the website look different depending on different configurations. It’s almost like having a layout seeecret! :shushing_face: :shushing_face: :shushing_face:

I decided I want to do a bit more work on this. I’d like the image to have a border and caption, but that’s not feasible if I do it as a CSS background image. However, a <picture> wrapped in a <figure> with absolute positioning would give me what I want. So I’ve got a bit more work to do.

I ended up doing this instead:

I decided that it isn’t worth my time to create a custom preview card for every post, so they all get this one.

added support for changing the background and text colors for the FTS webring widget. now folks can slap whatever (non-hex) valid css color value into the text-color and bg-color query params in the url for the webring’s <iframe>, and they can match the color palette of the webring to that of their site. i implemented it myself on my personal blog!

I made a little design for a webpage that I’m real proud of (I think I’m making real good progress with CSS ngl) and a complementary page for templates that anyone can use if they want to :3 I love when other pages have that, so I’m glad to have gotten into that kinda thing myself!!

Nothing visual, but I overhauled my sites folder structure, now all my images are actually organised in folders so I don’t have to squint and scroll through a bunch of files, though I do wish neocities had a slightly more robust file management system.
