A small corner of the web I've been building — Cozy Shelter
Ink-wash visuals shifting through four seasons
I built a small personal space on the web that changes with the seasons.
It's called Cozy Shelter — a Korean blog built on a heavily customized JB SKIN 167 by JB Factory (a paid Tistory skin). The name comes from my nickname Hanrim (寒林), meaning "cold forest" in Chinese characters. I wanted the space to feel warm despite the wintry roots.
The header and profile illustration shift across four seasons. The sidebar clock was replaced with the traditional East Asian 24 solar terms — right now it reads 立夏, Ip-ha, the beginning of summer. Seasonal particles drift across the page depending on time of day and season. There's also a music player that shifts its playlist by season and time of day.
The whole thing is written in Korean, but you can switch the language — there's a small KR · EN · JP · CN switcher in the nav bar powered by GTranslate.

TMI: I had an old account with a randomly assigned username — ended up posting as "Proud_Wasabi7365." Had to delete and start over.
