Back Again (Maybe)
July 29, 2025

It's been a while since I've posted on here. If anyone visited this site before, you may have noticed that the website looks different. Let me talk about that.

Website Design Revamp

As you can see, the website looks much... duller. But also more retro.

The reason I did this was because I think the reason I didn't use the old website so much was because functionally, it wasn't very good, and publishing content to it was highly inconvenient. I was so focused on the aesthetics of it that I didn't actually bother giving the site substance in the form of content. So rather than prioritizing aesthetics, this time, I made the website very simple and I'm hoping to improve my publishing workflow so that it's easier to upload content to the site. I want to take advantage of scripting in order to make the publishing more smooth, since before, everything had to be manually done. I've already started working on this, so hopefully I can continue to improve on it.

Furthermore, me simplifying the website's look also doubles to make the website much more compatible with older browsers and hardware. Originally I had my normal website and a "simple" version for older browsers, but I didn't like this approach, and considering I wanted to simplify the site, I figured it would be better to roll both into one. I did some testing on old browser (and by old browsers, I mean the PSP web browser (it works great)), so hopefully it should be highly compatible.

I'm also taking advantage of features in Hugo that I didn't use before, including pagination so that posts arent on one long page, and image compression, so that big images like my art pieces can be compressed in previews for bandwidth and also for further hardware compatibility.

I'm pretty happy with how it's turned out so far. I will work on the website's aesthetics more later, but for now, I will leave the site in this state. I also hope to add more content, such as guides and archivals of files I want to share.

uhhhhhh yeah dont have much else to say so byeeeeeeeeeeeeee
