Although I am still using good ol’ Jekyll for the backend, I have now added a more fleshed-out CSS design which also includes a set of open source custom typefaces.</p> +<p><strong>Gasp!</strong> “How <em>could</em> you?!” I hear you ask. Let me explain.</p> +<h2 id="personal-sites-should-feel-personal">Personal sites should feel personal</h2> +<p>I can see how this change might seem hypocritical (it took some convincing myself) but I decided to follow in to footsteps of Kev Quirk and <a href="https://kevq.uk/adding-some-whimsy-character/">added a little whimsy and character</a> to my website. After all, personal websites should <em>feel personal</em>. My obsession with barebones HTML & CSS serves its purpose on other public projects, but seems limiting for my own little space on the interwebs.</p> +<h2 id="banned-from-my-own-club">Banned from my own club</h2> +<p>I had originally converted this blog’s design to use <em>zero</em> CSS and instead rely solely on default browser styling. The main reasoning for doing so, was to have the ability to include my own personal website in the <a href="https://xhtml.club">XHTML Club</a> project. (I never said it was a <em>good</em> reason)</p> +<p>After giving it some thought, I’ve decided that this limitation seemed too extreme even for me.</p> +<h2 id="moving-forward">Moving forward</h2> +<p>I know I always say “With this new design, I can finally focus on just writing content!” - but this is a lie. I’ll probably be fiddling with my personal website until the day I die. The good news is that I <em>do</em> have a few tutorial blog posts lined up to publish soon - so be on the lookout for those!</p> +<p>Thanks for reading through my pointless ramblings about personal websites. It’s good to just vent about these things sometimes…</p> +<footer role="contentinfo"> + <h2>Menu Navigation</h2> + <ul id="menu"> + <li><a href="/">Home</a></li> + <li><a href="/projects">Projects</a></li> + <li><a href="/uses">Uses</a></li> + <li><a href="/wiki">Wiki</a></li> + <li><a href="/resume">Resume</a></li> + <li><a href="/colophon">Colophon</a></li> + <li><a href="/now">Now</a></li> + <li><a href="/donate">Donate</a></li> + <li><a href="/atom.xml">RSS</a></li> + <li><a href="#top">↑ Top of the page</a></li> + </ul> + <small> + Built with <a href="https://git.sr.ht/~bt/barf">barf</a>. <br> + Maintained with ♥ for the web. <br> + Proud supporter of <a href="https://usefathom.com/ref/DKHJVX">Fathom</a> & <a href="https://nextdns.io/?from=74d3p3h8">NextDNS</a>. <br> + The content for this site is <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/">CC-BY-SA</a>.<br> The <a href="https://git.sr.ht/~bt/bt.ht">code for this site</a> is <a href="https://git.sr.ht/~bt/bt.ht/tree/master/item/LICENSE">MIT</a>. + </small> +</footer>
