Even as the summer season approaches, I still do not look forward to the blooming heat… I rather deal with the harsh cold weather since I can always cover up more over trying to stay cool. Been trying to do more housekeeping for myself and somewhat successful. Still trying Postybirb for the rest while some bits for Pillowfort get posted (mostly microblogging texts get manually added, images might not though with this post as the exception). Cara is one I use but not as a day to day thing. It’s more of a professional portfolio even if I don’t act as much. Sheezy hasn’t been able to utilize the application, but no harm in doing it manually. I do enjoy scrolling through it for a bit anyways.
Still no interest in trying Tumblr again as the lack of trust towards it stops me from adding that to the automation system. Got to doodle with the tablet lately on the PC. Still haven’t had the best of luck trying to get around the digital stuff. Which makes trying out webcomics a bit more flaky. Granted, there is the possibility of using traditional works for them – it’s going to take a bit more work to get the images adjusted enough for readability.
Gave IB (InkBunny) a quick glance through, decided against using it. Especially with the anti-LGBT stances I’ve heard the head is vocalizing. Not much of a stranger to that considering the messiness going on in the states (and my own state so to speak)… Because of that last bit, this might not go to the Newgrounds page for safety reasons. I can understand keeping kids protected from specific topics, but the LGBT mentions can be again – flaky. Back on the subject of the webcomic, I say that because I wanted to get myself into that subject. It always fascinated me especially with some that I do follow having some of their own.
My main concerns? Topics, content, anti-theft measures, critics, people pleasing, I could go on…
I do have at least one anthro-centric one I wanted to bring to fruition, just never got around to building it up. The other one that I thought about was just a comic-strip styled one, similar to the newspaper ones like Garfield and Peanuts. Just something more loose and a bit personal. I think with Artfight coming up, I should just start finishing up the two characters I want to add in terms of reference sheets as well as the rest of the attacks I’ve done. Hopefully with PB up and going, it’s going to be less of an issue with scheduling things…
Probably, probably not. But regardless, just some blob of updates to share.
Reenabled asks on Tumblr knowing well the Pandora's box that's going to be hitting the inbox later. Neospring hasn't been functional on my end and it just seems to break when I try to update the profile image again. Lot better than what Curious Cat does which is - not allowing me to change it at all. Not willing to use a service where I'm seen as a possible bot. No thanks man.
I was able to get PostyBirb working and tested it for Newgrounds, Weasyl, and SoFurry with success! Not checked FurAffinity yet, so if someone stumbles upon ookamij64 there and sees it there - then that's another success there! I hadn't had the heart to add InkBunny since I tried using it and it felt like FA without the SFW filters and what Itaku was before realizing I could blacklist users. Artfight prep is on my list as I remind myself that first over site graphics first and foremost.
The site can wait anyways. But I still need some pages worked on anyways before officially unveiling that mess.
Not using persona this time around, but contemplated on posting more than the traditional works again. Not posting the photography stuff again because previous experience still soured that mess. Not upset about the situation as much as just not wanting another repeat of it. I ought to mess around with the Straw.page a bit since I am using the PC but that could be done tomorrow.
Had contemplated on adding a link to the Atabook Guestbook for those interested in signing that. Long story short: it's a guestbook of course that requires no account to sign but one is if you want to use one yourself. You can link it back to your website, but I have it linked to my Melonland forum's pad page for the moment and intend to add to my other sites when I feel like it.
ComicFury is also added to my list of sites here for the moment with the Carrd addition coming soon. I had been wanting to jump into the webcomics again, just too many ideas!
To top this mess off, I made a crazy cake (cake with no eggs or milk) and turned out so good - until it was almost done that I realized one thing: I forgot the baking powder...
Editing this to top: I'm slowly trying to warm up to Unvale again. If anyone wants to give that a look, here it is: https://unvale.io/juliewolffang64
Still a bit disappointed about the lack of block feature, but meh... One step at a time.
Still working on the buggy as heck website of mine. Nothing to show off yet, but I rather have it look presentable than stable (like it already was). Not sure what the one person peeking into my shoutbox was doing liking other people's responses, but it was albeit unnerving and while I understand trying to get yourself out there - I don't understand the need to peruse other's shoutouts and liking them. Again, not a fan of blocking out of the blue but I just don't think I could handle letting it be. I still feel childish for doing so. Kind of feel like a jerk for even saying that...
HTML is slowly being learned as I started more of the work on my Melonland forum pad page. Trying to do the same here - eh... I couldn't get the poor pupper on the box centered regardless of what code I threw in. Finally gave up and thought about seeing if there's someone more experienced than I who could help me with fixing it up. Reset the theme since I kind of fell in and out of the series. I only read the original 5 and not a single one of the Slayer Chronicles (never cared for Joss anyways, bit of a minor character spoiler if you've never read them), and I have half interests in the recent books they're putting out as a continuation but since the whole fandom rose from the graveyard again - I do get a bit curious.
Lastly, still doing Artfight - here's my profile if anyone wants to draw my characters as I try and get another one of them a proper reference. Poor Maci never got anything... But now, I want to just toss my persona's pet fox into the ring for shins and grins.
Oh right - the profile: https://artfight.net/~ookamij64

Edit: After some testing and taking the advice of a fellow PDN user, it seems like LibreWolf disabled something that allows Sheezy.art to take images I upload through the browser. Guess I'll be on Firefox but with more beefy protections in place since it works with the site. Any image I attempted to upload - art, page doll, banner, or profile - ends up being uploaded as this block of messed up corruption. Again, I might see if this is already an issue submitted or if I'll be one of the first to report the said bug. I did thought about submitting it through the in-browser report broken site, but that's not exactly what I was thinking of course...
Either my browser hates Sheezy since I switched over to LibreWolf (fork of Firefox with better security and privacy, minus the fact I added Bing back because personal tastes are bad...) or Sheezy doesn't want to take my uploads correctly. At first, I thought maybe it's my Paint(dot)net watermarks messing it up or maybe the Sanative throwing in the corruption loop. But nope, both the original watermarked and shielded images come up as a glitchy mess. I rather not take the chance to see if it was a graphical glitch so I deleted the said drafts. I had recently got into MelonLand forums under the same username over there. Not much in terms of being able to get more social so yay...
I'm trying to be less negative but at the same time, I felt like my confidence took a nasty brunt from the AI scraping even though it's been two or three weeks since it occurred. I thought about "forcing" myself to get over the whole thing and just start being more aggressive with the AI shielding. And by forcing, I meant - a lot of self negative talk. Thankfully, not much is done in that regard because I'm going to be honest it never worked out as well as I think it does. Still doing the Switch gameplaying with Pokemon Quest. I've made myself get more patient with trying to go for a complete living Dex there. I'm still working on the normal variation of it and not the shiny since Mewtwo hasn't been defeated yet.
Still grinding and still leveling up some mons before I retry once again. I only play that on the side while playing solitaire for a rewards thing. Either that or take a chance with the surveys and some of those suck horribly. Most of the time, I felt like I get declined for the stupidest of things. Being nonbinary was one of the reasons for the longest time a couple of days in a row. Hasn't been this bad, but it still sucks.
I did doodle a bit last night which helped, and therapy appointment got pushed up. Now I just need to open up and actually say what's been bugging my butt for the last few weeks.
