What are you working on at the moment?

I am reworking my site to be more concise; a better summary of me and what I am up to, and consolidating and deleting a few pages. No changes are live yet, because I will be pushing all changes at once for a cleaner switch I wrote in my online journal why I decided to do this now.

Style Savvy shrine!!! I have all the working bits and pieces done, I just need to make the actual content (and fuss with the navbar til it looks right). Unfortunately Starfield just released so I’ve been preoccupied playing that as of late and haven’t touched it much :( in due time it’ll be done though!

I love this game! Do update us when you have it up, I'd love to see it

A script that generates blog posts from simple .txt files, which I've rewritten a few times already just to try getting it all working   


It's built from knowledge that I gained making mods for other people's scripts, including Melon's frame link generator! I'll be adding the modded frame link generator to the Melonland wiki when it's more complete. I want it to be able to support multiple iframes, like for split-screen multiplayer page links or page links with selectable webgardens. I'll get to that once I'm at a stopping point with my blog script, though. The knowledge I brought from Melon's code to the blog script was doing things with a page url, so I can link to individual blog posts even though they're all technically at the same Web address!   


I've been sort of stuck the last couple of days when it comes to adding pseudo-BBCode for the blog .txt files, but I'm doing all sorts of experiments until I get unstuck. Each rewrite attempt seems more promising than the last, and it should start moving again because I actually took a couple notes before retrying this time!


After my work here reaches a stopping point, I'll probably make an actual blog post or two. Then, I'll work on a page where I offer my creations for others to use, with tutorials for things included. After that, I'll probably go on to Melon's frame link generator mod, with the actual code offering & tutorial for that being on the Melonland wiki, just with a link there from among my other offerings.   




P.S. If you haven't seen it yet, I've also added a CSS selector reference for customizing your Melonland forum profile on the wiki, too! I think I forgot a couple things (like the contact info section), but it's mostly complete right now.

I'm cleaning up my Google Drive and figuring out whether I should leave my stuff on there (mostly spreadsheets and fanfics) or whether I want to move to a more privacy-friendly service. This is part of a longer saga of figuring out how I want to back-up everything I have.

Oh, and I guess I am exporting my story ideas to a single program now. Just to see if it will help me write for once.

I'm working on rearranging my site to get away from the blog paradigm, and I'm also working on eliminating pandoc as a dependency in my toolchain.

I'm working on rearranging my site to get away from the blog paradigm, and I'm also working on eliminating pandoc as a dependency in my toolchain.

In developing my blog script, I've been sort of thinking of how a blog paradigm stretches and forms, in order to think of ways people might want to use a blogging tool. Because the script can parse HTML when the user tells it to, it doesn't really even need to be a "blog" as people might think of it; a "blog post" can just be an entire Web page, which conforms to whatever styles are on the HTML page.

I made the script to solve the issue of being able to write blog posts on the go without needing HTML (as .txt files, which mobile apps support), but in my quest for feature-completeness, I think I've created an entire lightweight Web page framework. Blog tools really are just that! By setting the blog navigation widget to display:none (which I may add as a vanilla feature) and having the "blog" posts have links to one another, a person can make their entire site using only my "blog" script with some text files!   

This makes me question whether a blog is about what is there versus what isn't there. If you use just a plain text file, then sure, this thing makes blog posts. But just add some [‌html][/html] tags, and then suddenly, it's become something else!

Working on a page about a niche band I like called Schmekel.   
I have a bit of story with them and hope to maybe introduce them to more people.
Right now I am writing the content of the page (which will take a good while ), and afterwards I will need to work on styling the page since I want it to mimic their old (now only available in an archive) website.

My novel! It's going really well actually, and I'm even writing some fanfiction on the side to keep my writing skills stretched and used to hopefully better my novel writing. It's the first writing project that I've properly planned for too, so the process is new and exciting!

On my website, I'm working on making webshrines for all the things I like! Currently I only have two (Annette Hanshaw and Cab Calloway), but I intend to make a Limp Bizkit one soon.

At the end of August I did an accessibility survey of my site. There's not too many problems with it, but the biggest is being caused because I used the hidden checkbox hack for part of the main menu. It's a nice bit of code but not very accessible.

I want to keep the main look of the pages but some things need changing. It's been a bit of a slog because other things keep getting in the way, but I've been writing other test pages and come up with a way of making the Details tag behave how I want it to and still retain its accessibility.

There's some other code I want to play with, maybe involving the dialog tag, before I start changing the pages.

Art thumbnails ! It's not much, but resizing, dithering (because i can), uploading, and throwing them in my gallery id definitely time-consuming. After that, I wanna incorporate longer-form image descriptions (which may or may not lead me to recoding like half the gallery page again. ow), but Ill probably just take a break from working on The One Page of my art site & keep brainstorming ideas for my OC profiles (mostly focused on finding a premade layout to stick with!)

i just added a little box to my website that displays the current weather with a little ascii art symbol! my next bigger project will be writing my own guestbook since I dont trust these online services for free guestbooks. Plus I want more customizability. :)

As I mentioned a month ago I'm working on a new version of my website. But since building it in private wasn't getting me very far I decided to throw it up on a subdomain. New version of my site is on new.starbreaker.org.

I'm finally adding some more of my writing to my site! Poems, essays, I'm basically just going through my notebooks, pc, and google drive to see what I've got. I might also make a few guides? They'd be bigger projects and I have the attention span of a particularly anxious squirrel so maybe I will maybe I won't. Who knows? Not me.
