- Back to my hometown. And the summer is
getting close to the end and I'm fine with that. I yesterday delivered
order, to restore my confidence after I've been not working for 2 in a
half month. And I did it. Plus, I've gathered some of the old stuff to
my portable SSD. And I may will plan to get better sized SSD with
somewhere 10 TB. Build myself a library and use it incase in the
emergency. And the list of my games I want to add in my library is
almost done. I read in news, that apparently that internet is going to
be heavily surveillanced due to demanding people show their face and
other things to see you're "human". Kinda makes me feel like that
government from various countries, trying to copy things how Russia
does. Not surprising which is going to be annoyance with this crap. My
task right now is to work and see if I can save up, so I could afford a
cottage to live completely alone. I'm tired of living in the apartments
which is already not making me relaxed. Hopefully I'll make it through. 21.08.2025 - Phew. I yesterday created a new badge for my clan. And I'm thinking to "maybe" create a seperated page. Honestly, those old sites are my inspiration that my site is going well. I have to give credit for Internet Archive for preserving these sites and their hard work to keep up the old stuff. Imagine, how would be terrifying if the people were brainwashed to ignore nostalgia if we couldn't preserve them. That would be horrifying view to see not remembering past and potentially people would be brainwashed with those modern stuff and blinded from it. It's just not always good idea to keep people forgetting old stuff. And oh boy, this is just getting more and more frustarting, to see companies in desperation trying to take control over everything. I just read the news and makes me thinking that government of other countries would be on leash. When they'll start to take action to stop companies being entitled? I should better stock up, incase of the "internet armageddon". I'm not going to lose all of those nostalgic stuff into the abyss. I pray that internet archive will stand their ground from those entitled companies trying to take control over everything. 25.08.2025 - Alright, I've finally did it and I noticed that my own created badge weights "220 KB". That would be a bit heavy for 90s if some bloke or gal, decided to use their ancient machine like Windows 98 or Windows 95. And it MAYBE, takes a bit more time to load or watching my webpage. I'll figure out with optimization on it later. But the fact I feel proud for creating it and with some hassle in photoshop. It ended up as a success! I was trying to make my badge somewhat identical on how most of them used as "advertisement" for clans in old games and for some various sites, like for computers about to download programs for better analysis or something. The annoying part for it, is that I tried to make frames not repeating after I created them, while I moving layers. But I couldn't figure out and tried to find a way to make them stop. At least keyframes on it helped me well. Are there like some programs to make as gif that I could edit them? I feel like there is, so yeah, will explore to get one so I could edit them on seperated program. I'm gonna try to update my webpage tomorrow and find out to optimize my badge, so that it should take about 15 or 35 KB. 28.08.2025 - Ah great. It looks after the new update I did for my webpage, it looks a bit screwed up. Some brackets are missing on the webpage, despite I double checked in Frontpage. I swore, it worked well when I was testing them offline. And yet it didn't worked on Neocities. How? Anyway, I'm thinking what to do, now that I released new update on my webpage. Perhaps construct another page, but for clan? If so, then I'll have to look up from the old clans and use them as reference, so that I could make it original as possible. I saw one of the old clan sites like for Counter-Strike, that it looks like it's been used Half-Life model viewer and making somewhat that picture trasnparent. But what about for Quake 3? Wondering where I can find model viewer to make it my own one and take one specific pose and boom. Edited from photoshop and it's actually a transparent picture! I hope I'll find one, so I could start making my own clan page. 31.08.2025 - Welp. Today's final day of the summer. For some kids it's the end of the holidays and for me it's about ttime, cuz I'm tired of the hot weather. So let's conclude results. First, I've achieved such progress for updating my page and I was able to refine it, while maintaining it's amateur quality. As well for creating my own very first badge! That's like a succesful milestone for recreaating the nostalgic era! Secondly, I've added pictures to my navigation buttons, which it made easier to visualize. I think it adds up personality IMHO. But, not only that it's also thanks to those compilations of old CDs used as materials for webpage in 90s. Big thanks to Internet Archive for preserving these ancient programs and softwares. Without them, I would've took a long time to scavenge materials myself. Lastly, I feel cozier for writing my own thoughts and my laptop (Sony VGN-FW1LR) as my main tool for constructing personal webpage as you're reading right now. Without it, I wouldn't even appear in Neocities. I'm just glad to see Neocities being as my main ground for showing my hobby. |
