So today I learned that I know next to nothing when it comes to html, which to my limited understanding is what most people use to customize their profiles.
I honestly thought it would be, not quick per se, but simple enough that I'd get the foundations down in like a day or two u know but this is an expertise that's going to take a while to learn I guess. It's times like these that makes you realise just how much effort people put into the things that they care about, especially considering how way back in the day where I was too young to know what the internet even is everybody had to code their entire blog or website on their own. Salute to those braves soldiers cause they're stronger than me.
Alas whining isn't going to help nothing, just gotta grit my teeth and bear since it will be worth it in the end.
P.S. Although any help would be greatly appreciated shyly side eyes
When it comes to posting art online I do it once in a blue moon and when the planets align, this is mainly because I get nervous that whatever I make is subpar compared to what other people post online. I know that's a dumb way of thinking and that it goes against the whole point of posting for fun but that doesn't change how I feel.
I tend to draw whenever I have free time but it's mainly just stills and side profiles of whatever creature I have in my mind and I've realised in recent years that I'm way worse at character design and other art fundamentals than I thought I was which didn't help things. Couple that with the fact that when it comes to the internet I'm a lurker through and through. It stinks cause I want to talk more about my art and art in general but the folks I know don't really know much or don't care.
But at the beginning of this year I decided that that's going to change so I'm making good on that promise four months in(better now then never) including talking about the things I like even if it's to an empty audience. I'm also going to try to seriously improve even if it's only a little bit since I have noticed that I've been stagnating for a while now.
Hopefully this motivates me to get over my posting anxiety and encourages me to draw more since it's one of the only things that I can do that I'm genuinely proud of. First step of the plan is properly decorating my profile!
P.S. Now that I think about it's kinda weird to make this my first journal post but what can you do, I already wrote the damn thing.
