Hello!! I hope you are doing well. Your art is so freaking amazing 👏 I'm just enjoying my time looking at all of it!!! I did have a question tho-- how did you make your webcomic website? I'm curious of the all the steps you took!

this is going to expose my age and personality, but my website making process has two steps in total

-- get the domain/hosting (mine is over at a finnish hosting site) -- code it

and when i say code i mean like, some real mid 2000s shit when i was 13 years old. straight up barebones html and css. there are many good actual website makers these days, but i am a self-proclaimed control freak nincompoop so to me it has always appeared faster to just 'make it from scratch' to get exactly what i wanted (i owe w3schools.com my everything by now probably). i figured -- worked for me a nigh decade ago why wouldn't it now? its still just a string of links is it not (and while it was A THING to have back in the day, am glad iframes are no longer around). i have upgraded my game with some very rudimentary php since ye olden days, but even that i only use for one of the graphic novels. turns out you can really make updating a website and layouts and stuff easier by making a composite out of multiple files and then updating the parts separately. SO NEAT. i will acknowledge that while i thought of responsiveness in the coding process, it is probably not perfect. this is my blatant mirror marketing, since i personally prefer to read things on bigger screens and it is the headscape the art was made etc etc. as such, i'll just take this opportunity and formally apologize to everyone on mobile if the experience is atrocious at your end. with that said -- thank you for the kind words and the question! they brought much joy and nostalgia to my afternoon <3
