I've been working a lot on the site but haven't documented in a few days.
What did I do this week?
- Changed my nav icons to hover icons
- Added a link page managed through a script
- Added new pages and "under construction" banners
- Fixed alignment and sizing on my window elements
- Updated my contact form
What did I learn?
- How to apply css color filters to images and add text over them without editing them in a graphics program...like this:
-
-
Original Image:
-
Filtered with text:
Under
construction
-
Original Image:
- Just putting the images in the previous bullet point by quickly using flex-direction and flex-grow and not thinking twice makes me feel really proud.
- I'm using more and more pseudo elements to reduce repetitive coding, like adding the name of the nav link below the image based on an attribute.
- Came across a list type I wasn't familiar with, the description list. Used it to build my links page. I love a data pairing system!
What's Next?
- Visit more neocities sites with coding resources
- Add to my music and about pages
- Play more on w3schools to learn more random tags I've never seen
Working on this site has really helped me at work. I had to code a bunch of emails
