Site Updates
2021
July 19 2021
- Moved all link buttons to a devoted folder.
- Did some long-needed cleanup and moved old versions of site pages to a 'version history' folder, complete with a directory page under the Miscellanous section of the site.
- Experimented a bit with CSS and iframes to embed Twine stories in the main site style. It's a bit janky, though, since removing the margins cuts off the Twine sidebar, but I have yet to find a way around this. :(
July 16 2021
- Got bored, made a quick-and-dirty copy of the main site in a folder with different CSS and layout. It has now been established as a joke "subsite" and linked in the Fun Stuff Directory. Further future recursion may follow.
July 12 2021
- Updated the links page.
- Added something special to the credits page.
June 30 2021
- Miscellanous edits to various pages.
- Updated About page slightly.
May 21 2021
- Revamped the CSS testing page. Stylesheets are now in categorized into templates I actually would like to be credited for, and old stylesheets I don't care about as much, or don't recommend. Two styles were also removed.
May 9 2021
- Put the Skaia Xamag background back into the site style, with CSS gradient filter for some nice color effects.
May 6 2021
- Added some Alternian vocabulary, plus a few new translations, both on the main page and in the font test.
April 26 2021
- Worked on Alternian some more.
April 1 2021
- Added a little more fluff to the about page.
- Fixed a link on the 'other sites' page (congrats on the new site design, @iosion!)
- It has been literally months since I removed the Homestuck background from my main CSS, but it's still there on my site icon on Neocities and I have no idea why.
- Slightly edited/improved the tutorial for Webcomic CSS 2.0, and fixed some minor annoyances in the CSS.
March 17 2021
- Improved some skins for subsections of the site.
- Changed a few backgrounds on the CSS test pages so I could delete some large images I wasn't making much use of. This made ~10 MB difference, so I'm quite pleased.
- Added one of the pesterquest end cards to the Jade Pages gallery.
March 14 2021
- Misc. alterations, typo fixes, etc.
January 18 2021
- Changed the site font, because the current one was making everything display really weirdly on certain devices, and it was screwing with my ability to properly design pages.
January 2 2021
- Added some more Alternian.
- Added Ewa Sio to the conlangs directory page.
January 1 2021
2020
December 11 2020
- Added new button links (hi beanbottles! a fellow Hollow Knight fan!)
- Toyed around with a larger general fanfiction section in addition to the Jade Harley fic, like a sort of hand-coded personal archive.
December 6 2020
- Changed the Homestuck background art of the standard page CSS to a gradient of the same colors. I just felt a little weird having official art as my primary site background, I guess? Like, it always felt a little weird copyright-wise, I guess. On the Jade page it's clear, but on the rest of the site... IDK. I might change it back, but I think it's worth keeping it like this for now. Maybe I'll make my own background art at some point later.
- Added the start of yet another fucking conlang, because my impulse control here is... well, I'd say it's 0, but you guys have no idea how many I've been holding back, lol.
November 28 2020
- Added a few more button links, and fixed some miscellanous typos.
November 11 2020
- Skimmed Homestuck^2 to update the Jade Pages Gallery with some new art.
- Webcomic CSS 2.0 is now listed in the testpage directory.
October 27 2020
- Did some more work on my Webcomic 2.0 stylesheet, and spruced it up a bit (and also got rid of that awful peach color scheme.)
October 6 2020
- Added some more words and grammar to Naūkeman
September 12 2020
- Created two new (Hiveswap) Alternian fonts to play around with!
September 7 2020
- Made an attempt at another webcomic format, this time with more thought put into how the updates would work.
- Added a little to Sataca'an.
August 18 2020
- Clawed free of the earth after a six week hiatus to work on conlangs (thank you so much Rivendell for cataloguing my Alternian conlang! I'm flattered :D)
- Moved BLM links from the main page to the links page, with an addendum about timestamps of certain resources.
- Added another banner to the button edits page.
July 1 2020
June 28 2020
May 23 2020

- Happy Homestuck day, everyone!
- Added more to Alternian (vocab, verb conjugation, some notes, etc.)
- Bit the bullet and added some HS^2 art to the Jade Gallery, as well as acknowleding it on the main page.
- (Listen... they have some Good Jades. The work itself isn't my cuppa tea for the most part, but the art is great, and I like their Jade so far.)
March 24 2020
- Added more to Alternian, including an extra element to word entries to show the actual spelling in English letters for those who don't want to actually spend all their time deciphering Alternian glyphs (read: my lazy ass.)
March 17 2020
- Added more content to Alternian.

February 4 2020

January 26 2020
- Added two styles to the test directory
- Changed over meta/fic/etc index pages of Jade Pages to new CSS.

January 24 2020
- Welcome to the first major update of the 2020's! And uh. Happy new year's? I completely forgot to post anything about that, whoops.
- Changed most of the remaining site pages to new CSS (links page, filk section), and made a minor fix to get the new CSS to play nice with the lyric tags.

- Working on a new CSS style.
2019
December 11 2019
- Changed the landing page to use the new CSS!
- Been working on Naūkeman! I've got way more words than I did starting out, some grammar and syntax, and even some sample sentences in there! Pinning down the grammar a little better definitely made a difference.
December 10 2019
- Testing the new mobile-friendly CSS with some other important pages, including the changelog. (See below.)
- Changed the main page of the Jade Pages to use the new CSS! After some deliberation, I decided to keep the original darker green color scheme. The change of font makes the whole things much more readable. The old version can be viewed here.
- Replaced the changelog with a new version using the mobile-friendly CSS to avoid having to update two changelogs at the same time, much like last time I changed over. The old changelog can now be found here.
December 7 2019
- Worked some more on the mobile-friendly CSS. It seems to be functional, now, and the revised code works much nicer in other areas as well! :)
- Changed the 404 Not Found page. It also now uses the new CSS.
December 1 2019
- Happy birthday, Jade.
- Worked a little more on the new Jade Pages CSS, and used it for a meta entry. How's it look?
November 18 2019
- Working on a mobile-friendly new version of the site CSS. Made some test pages, including possibly a new main page to use later. I'll be sad to see the sidebar go, but I think the new header links look pretty neat!
November 11 2019
- Minor edits to credits page, and added credits for the pixel gifs on the test pages to help clear up any confusion regarding their sources.
November 7 2019
November 3 2019
- Updated changelog, at least a week late.
- Edited links page. How the frickety-frackety did I manage to misspell districts?
October 26(?) 2019

October 22 2019
- Began working on a mobile-friendly update of the main site CSS. It hasn't been implemented yet, but test pages can be found here and here.
October 21 2019
- (Dramatic announcer voice) It works... for MOBILE!
- Pesterquest assets! I have tentatively replaced the old Skaia background with a newer, nicer-looking image from John's route! :O

October 19 2019
Well then! It's been a while, huh?
- Added some new content to conlangs.
- Added new CSS style, and used Jade Pages content to show off the features (well, feature.) Might revamp Jade Pages with it later on, since the old sidebar code is a mess..
August 25 2019
- Made a new CSS style, vaguely inspired by another site I saw a while back that I thought looked cool.

July 1 2019

June 29 2019

- Added a "meta" section.
April 19 2019
- Changed CSS for fic pages (bigger font, dark text on light background) and turned the sidebar gif into a still image since it was too distracting; added pesterlog CSS for future use.
