Made a blog page, I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it yet. I have some of my own thoughts but I also just want to collect quotes that I enjoy
Changed the navigation on this page, I didn't like that the home link matched the headers, it made it unclear that it is a link
Added my show blog to the navigation here, I'm loosely organizing my stuff into portfolio and personal writings. There's still a home link here but now it also links directly to my theater blog
This is also where I'll put a link to my normal blog I'm considering
Coppied these new navigations over between those three pages, but hid the new blog link on the two visible pages
I will probably change the name, it's going to be half about collecting things that inspire me so I want that to be a focus
Changed the backgrounds on other blog pages to match this one
Deleted some old unused graphics
Updated Pointless game page
Started page for Job puppet

April 22 2024
Bruni Thumbnail wasn't square, replaced it
Updated floating coat to have link in subtitle
Started removing detail segments from gallery pages, it's just too busy; costumes, puppetry, plushes, clothing, sets and props, dolls,
Also updating footers as I go; puppetry, clothing
Removed detail section on my template page as well
Finally started doing ALT descriptions! Did it for the costumes page
Now the saga of the ALT text begins. I tried breaking the images to see what happens. and what I got was a garbles mess as the border assigned to the image assigned itself to each line of text instead of the block as a whole. The fix for this was to remove the border from the default img tag, but this left the image and the ALT text with no border. To add the border back in, I made a new div that would house the image and its text
A new issue, the image had a little extra buffer space at the bottom which now showed up inside the border. I looked this up and it was fixed by making it an inline block
Next issue, all of these images are links because they open the full image in a new tab. The ALT text is considered link text, so it appears as underlined and bolds on hover
For some reason, using "font-weight: normal;" works to remove the bold on hover, but "text-decoration: none;" doesn't remove the underline
Yes I know this is all fixed by having the link completely inside the div, but I don't like that it doesn't let me include the caption as part of that without making it also within the border
Though I suppose most people will be clicking on the image anyway, and if I want it to sound better on screen readers I should make the caption it's own link individually
Now I'm messing with how to get the h2 caption to actually act like a link and change on hover, but something seems broken or overriding it, and it may be the fact that it has a textured background idk
Well, here is where we currently stand: I've devised a way to replace the borders and make ALT text look good in normal galleries, but it will require editing every photo individually, which I have to do as I add the text anyway. For linked galleries, if I want the h2 caption to also be a link than I will have to make it its own individual link
This is still going to be a long process, as I knw it would be, but I think I've figured enouhg out that I can confidently ccontinue to make new pages with the new system without worrying about going back to edit them again. I will just need to make sure I'm redefining the image tag on all the pages that are converted until I get them all done
The new image attribute breaks the footer images, fixed this
Cleaned up the css and coppied the thumbnailimage class over to the main style sheet
Added new set up to the costumes page to finally finish its transition to ALT friendly
I also shifted the way that odd numbers of gallery images appear
Added alt text support on index page and wrote descriptions

While I was working on my long furby page, I realized I could use the tab system to make "previous" and "next" buttons to switch between tabs. this wasn't really needed when I was adding it to small pages, but on some of these project pages where the progress tabs are super long, maybe it would be useful!
Tested this out on Bruni's page, I'm going to wait until I get feedback to try it out
Feedback said it worked but the buttons were blocky, I replaced them with simple text
Coppied it over to Marlo & Marnie, I'm only going to be doing it on pages that are longer

More tab system for plush pages: General D. Plush, Seam, Kedamono
Tab system for set & prop pages now: Oscar, Jack Clock

Broke my Long Furby page links so I can work on it a bit
Okay we're getting somewhere, I started out making tabs similar to what I had before only with images for buttons, but I didn't like how much space they took up. So I went to find a decent side scrolling gallery and had to mess around a bunch with the different div and button tabs, but I think I got it figured out!
Okay after a LOT more tinkering, we have the different scroll tabs set up that open into the full galleries underneath
Also fixed the footer
Some layout changes around here on the dev log page
April 14 2024

From what I can tell it doesn't break anything, but just in case I removed the previous id tags from pages that had used the old system, Corwin and Marlo
Time to add the tab system to puppetry pages: Tiamat, Mini Audrey II, Bad Idea Bears, Moving Boxes,
Added new tab system to the template page for eaiser copy/paste
Assume for each of these I'm also updating the footer at the same time
Adding the tab system to more puppetry pages: Fogtown Backround Characters, Fogtown Moth, Fogtown Mouse, Fogtown Pigeons, Darcy, Gezkin, Robin Puppet, Shadow Puppets, Sockberus, King Lear & Fool
Tab system for plush pages now: Arthur, Gulliver, Teddy, Volk, Wolf & Bat,
Tab system for costume pages now: Bugbear Headpiece, Steve Big Top Burger, The DJ, Toddy and Aloysius, No 44,
April 13 2024
Added to the show blog!
Tried out a new system I had been messing with on my other site that allows you to jump between tabs instead of having one long page to scroll through, I think I'll have to impliment this on MANY other pages, it's just so convenient
Implimented tab system on my resume page
I think for my project pages, I'm just going to have to go through them in large chunks when I have the energy. Because pretty much all of these could use this system and I don't want to only use it sometimes
Tell me why I had artfight 2022 labelled as 2024
Anyway, implimented tab system on my digital art page
Also updated footer on digital art

FINALLY changed out that 70's/Art Nouveau font! I didn't hate it but I didn't feel like it was my vibes
Found out how to give the new font a transparent texture overlay
Changed color of new headers as well as box borders
Messed around and figured out how to do this from the css without having to go through every single page manually
Didn't use the new texture on the sidebar menus since it would have been difficult to change from the css alone
Something I did broke the list indentation. fixed that
Went through all the main and category pages to make little fixes that were needed with the new font
One of the things I chnfed now makes everything in the top section of the boxes large. fixing this to just be h2 headings in tht section isn't seeming to work, so I just won't put anything else in there
Went through all the project pages to double check, mostly for the note above
Messed around with header font size

I am beginning to actually use this site for my portfolio, which means even if its unfinished we're going to do some housekeeping. This will need to be finished by October 6th when the show I'm in opens.
Fixed the lack of indentation on layered bulletted lists (it was so small and simple)
Added home button to Page Not Found
Also made it a bit friendlier and added that the page you're looking for might just not be made yet
Now we're going through every side page and adding the last remaning thumbnails, plus breaking links to unfinished pages
I'm both moving the links and breaking the buttons on the category pages, I'm taking the time to move the links too because I don't want to find every possible instance of the links

Started working on gallery pages starting with the puppetry category
Currently finished: Mini Audrey II, Bad Idea Bears, Moving Boxes, Fogtown Moth, Fogtown Mouse, Fogtown Pigeons
The pigeons took the longest because I had actually written out the majority of the process and put in the photos
Originally wasn't sure if I was going to bring it over form the old layout, but made a 2-column gallery option
Updated the template a little and fixed gallery pages for Gezkin, Secret Garden Robin and Shadow Puppets, Tiamat, and Sockberus
I have realized that I like it better when you can click on the thumbnail for a gallery and it links to it, so now I'm re-doing all my category thumbnails again
On the bright side, I can now make the images change when you hover over them to indicate they are part of the link
Fixed the template for all the doll pages (Belindy, Brúni, Cynthia, Corwin, Marnie, Lorni Snoop, Marlo, & Wolf), this was easy since they barely had any description so far
Updated the links & thumbnail hover for the Dolls page
Fixing the template for Plushes galleries, finished; Arthur, Aster, General D, Gulliver, Kedamono & Pumpkin
Add to that Seam, Teddy, Volk, and Wolf & Bat
Finished fixing the Long Furby page. This one is a category page in itself, as each individual furby is going to need their own page. I started off trying to put them all on one, but it got way too long even before putting more photos in there. One photo of each long/modified Furby is already 24 photos, that's plenty. Some won't get individual pages since I only have one photo of them
Updated the links & thumbnail hover for the Plushes page
Do I need to note every single little update? Probably not but it gives me a sense of accomplishment
Did all the costume pages, which was easy bc none of them had anything on them yet
Updated the links & thumbnail hover for the Costumes page (three more to go!)
Updated the links & thumbnail hover + fixed all the templates for the Sets and Props pages (two more to go!)
Updated the links & thumbnail hover + fixed all the templates for the Clothing pages (one more to go!)
Finished re-doing the templates for Digital Art, which means we are DONE with fixing the CSS!!! (for now!!!)
Had to real quick fix the backgrounds on all the pages I've done since the Plushes... oops
Sep 2 2023
Finished fixing category pages
Changed name of Games folder to Digital Art
Finished alphabetized section of Index
Started and finished navigation by category section of the index
Fixed references to previous "Games" in the index
Made lists of things to add for each page (maybe centralize here instead)
Need to figure out a system for when I don't have all four gallery spaces filled up to create a row. Currently empty spaces are at the bottom, but I realize that makes it more work to add new ones. Two I can center, but what do I do if I have only one extra?
Cleaned up page not found
Sep 1 2023
Finally began overhauling this site! I had created an issue a month ago when opening up the CSS for both this and another site I mange, and it somehow overrode the save for this one. But I'm taking it as an opportunity to re-start everything now that I know a lot more about html.
Started with a private test page andgot the layout figured out. Homepage, Resume, and Index have been re-worked, and the test page serves as template storeage.
Began re-organizing Index page for better visibility, need to finish. Nested lists don't indent properly.
Began overhauling the portfolio gallery pages. You can tell we have a time ahead of us when I'm seriously debating if it's quicker to fix my formatting on every singe column, or copy paste the new formatting and then copy over the old links.
Upside: my old code was messy and it's definitely much better now.
Added the store page to the main navigation. I don't think it will be a major way for me to advertise my stuff, but at least it'll be nice to have it all in one place. I decided to make a section for dolls and plushes too ahead of time, I'd like to clear out my collection.
Going down the list, I've got Puppets, Dolls, Plushes, and Costumes done!
Replaced "Games" page with "Digital Art" to also incluide normal pixel art
Got a little farther in cleaning up the alphabetized index
