Welcome to the galaxy!

10/13/2024: I present to you all the JavaScript update! A few months ago I decided to step up to the challenge and learn JS, which has been fun, easier than expected, and a massive help for my site! It's not what all of the updates revolve around, but still. Here are the highlights:

• The Mod Archive, Art Gallery and Yostershire pages linked in the nav bar now share the same visual layout as the index, sporting new buttons with cleaner code throughout.
• The pages for Mario Kart Wii and DS mods make ample use of JS, as now you can pick from a menu of tracks and read about them on a single window, as opposed to having to scroll through a bunch of entries. Which also means I could clean up the CSS code too, it was really bad lmao.
• There's a new page in the Yostershire section: A weather page! This was my first JS project for the site. Check the weather at several spots in Yostershire in real time, change temperatures and hear some music too!
• The aforementioned pages utilizing JS have sound effects on clicking.

I hope you enjoy how the remodeled pages look, and have fun tinkering with the weather page! I intend to update with many more features as time goes on and I keep expanding my JS knowledge. I also hope to add more JS functionality throughout the site, but that'll be at a later time.

09/06/2024: Guess what? The blog FINALLY gets a new entry! That should tell you how interesting my life is, I had nothing to talk about... Kidding. The entry itself explains why.

08/22/2024: New artwork: Vulnerable. We all have our breaking points, but they can't be pushed aside. Just another vent drawing.

08/17/2024: New artwork: Solitude. Just a quick night sky piece I managed to make amongst my very busy days. There will be a blog post about that soon, by the way.

05/29/2024: New artwork: Chasing Clouds! Really felt the vibe of this drawing and I'm super proud.

04/24/2024: A new character page is finally here, you better believe it! Read all about one of Yostershire's fiercest guard gals, Bonnie Yo'star! The only unfinished aspect of the page is about her parents who don't have an icon yet. (And in the case of her mom, a name, oops) I'll hopefully work on them enough to add that. Otherwise, enjoy reading not just about Bonnie, but some additional Yostershire lore too!

03/02/2024: New artwork: In the Eye of the Storm! Drawing cool and epic stuff is always very cool and epic.

12/31/2023: The stories section of Yostershire FINALLY has a story! Have a look at the life of Marie's parents in Looking Out For You! Any sort of stories, short or long will go in this area and use a similar template to the character pages. This is likely the last update of the year, so Happy New Year, and may 2024 be an awesome year for all of us!

11/13/2023: New artwork: Marielle's new look! I'll be doing more renders of this new style, especially for characters that don't get enough drawings!

11/7/2023: New artwork: Marie with a new style! Been changing up my drawing style for Yoshis and I'm happy with what I've got!

10/13/2023: Suddenly, major changes! The site has recieved a slightly new look, mainly organizing the layouts and hopefully optimizing the site:

• The homepage and about pages use a more contained layout that makes it easier to read and not a bunch of disparate squares. The about page has also been slightly updated.
• The images for the art gallery now have lazy loading on them, to make it easier to see the page on a weaker connection.
• The blog entries list now uses the styling for the blog itself.
• The updates here on the home page are now merged into one for simplicity's sake. I might color code them to differ from site and art updates.

I was going to change up the Mod Archive and buttons to access subsections, but I don't really have many ideas and they are okay as they are, so they'll be updated eventually.
