Can’t believe it’s been 11 years since I bought this domain and began filling it with various web works!
Sites have come and gone, and there have been many facelifts, but WithinMyWorld.org has stood the test of time. It was my 20th birthday present to myself, in the midst of college exams, and it has seen me enter other stages of my life since then. :’) Ah, memories. <3 Here's to many more years! *clinks glasses*
I finally fixed up the appearance of my network page (where I list all the sites on withinmyworld.org), with the help of Dubiousdisc of Rigelatin.net! I posted a “design challenge” of sorts over at Amassment to help me get unstuck from my design rut, and she graciously provided some inspiration. If you’re looking for an awesome webdesign community, Amassment is the place to be!
(While I was busy fixing up the design, I also realized I had never uploaded info for my most recent shrine, Lux Perpetua, so I added that in, too! Bonus!)
I went through my Projects page and realized that I kind of over-scheduled myself this fall. So, I went through and rearranged, making the page not quite so ambitious–but I’m still going to be releasing a site roughly each month! It’s just that now, my list of sites to do extends far into 2016.
Here are some of the new projects I added:
Be on the lookout for these! (Dates may change a bit as life happens, but these sites will happen at some point!! LOL)
YES! After four long years of staring at my noobish WordPress layout over on my blog, Crooked Glasses, I finally bit the bullet and switched the theme to the prepackaged Twenty Fifteen look, editing only a few colors and widgets to get it the way I wanted.
The FAQ and Links pages have been cleaned up and reworded to feel more professional. I’m also using an Archive widget instead of a custom page now, and I got rid of my feeble attempt at an Article Series page because I really don’t have any idea how to make it work anyway. ^o^
…And now I officially win the “Super Lazy Designer” Award! YAY!!! ROFL
My “Contact,” “Affiliate,” and “Link-Exchange” pages have finally been edited and combined into one tidy single-page site: my Exits page! Give it a look-see! 😀
Also, I still am working behind the scenes on stuff in my projects list…it’s just been a weirdddd few months. ^_^;
I’ve moved the domain info page to its own little folder–check it out!
(I’m doing this in preparation for version 15, which may or may not appear this year ^_^; )
I’ve been working with this newsblog’s theme here and there to improve its display, and I believe I’ve finally ironed out all its kinks. Always room for tinkering and polishing when it comes to custom WordPress themes, I’ve learned!
Disguises, my layout archive for WithinMyWorld.org, has received a full makeover! It’s now pretty, mobile-friendly, and pictorial thanks to Bootstrap. Bonus: I didn’t destroy anything or go batpoo crazy on anybody while debugging the Bootstrap layout! Also, there’s already a page up about Version 14, so I don’t have to quickly make that page before switching to Version 15 later. (YAY for not procrastinating ^_^)
Check it out and see how WithinMyWorld’s “disguises” have become much more skillful over the years! This is a really cool site that reminds me just how far I’ve come since I started poking around with design way back in 2003. 🙂
I did a major sweep on my links page, adding, updating, and deleting links until everything is current and useful again. Plus, I put up a “Featured Sections” part on the main page so it doesn’t look so empty. 😀
Check it out, especially the Domains/Networks–I added sites from all the lovely people at Amassment.org. Give them a visit–they work just as hard as I do on their sites, if not harder!
It’s only the 5th day of 2015 and already I’ve added over 2,500 words to my novel! Check out my Novel Progress page to see more visual stats on how I’m doing!
