[WIP] Uploading images via python script? Yeah, why not

Hi, so, do you remember my gallery layout WIP? Ehh, no, you didn't. I doubt that I will work on that again.

Instead, I decided to make an additional script for a gallery engine by metemo, a VERY awesome one, actually. It gives you a search by tags, already makes writing out configs for images faster than just via HTML tags.

What exactly I did: I made a script that appends user input to the .txt file with an already correct formatting for the gallery's engine. Then, this .txt file gets edited and changed to become a proper .js file, making your art show in a descending order (from the newest). For executing this script you will need a python 3 installed and a terminal (or just enable one in VScode).

Before releasing the code, I want to add a fully functional NSFW filter; it will add a certain class to the image that will make it hidden by default unless toggled by the viewer. Possibly will add a support for IsYoutube, but that's a low priority at the moment

Hello! Looking for other neocities blogs to read :-)

Is anyone else blogging with Neocities? I'd love to read your thoughts! If you blog about writing or marine life I'll probably be an automatic huge fan, but I'm happy to read topics outside my special interests too :-)

I'm collecting a bunch of websites to link to on my site, and I want to find more cool ones. If you have a button please tell me so I can include a button for your site as well as a link!

‘.txt is not an allowed file type for free sites’ error

I haven’t edited my site for a few months but came back to it yesterday and created a new (empty) TXT file which saved no problem. However, after adding some text to it today (which consists solely of alphabetic characters, commas, apostrophes, and hyphens, so nothing crazy) and attempting to save, I got this error. I have plenty of other TXT files in the same directory that have never had this issue before. Upon googling, I found a couple of other cases of a similar error, but they were for different file types such as CSS and the issue didn’t seem related to mine. I also tried saving the file locally and uploading it but got the same message. Any ideas what could be causing this and how I could resolve it? Thanks!

I'm gathering and posting horror stories for Halloween!

Hello! I'm a big fan of horror stories.

For some time, I'd been meaning to make a section on my site to gather different stories I collect, and I finally uploaded it at the start of October. I plan to update it with different stories throughout the month, but I also left a form there in case anybody wants to share their stories. (each one would be credited and linked to your site/profile of any platform, as you prefer).

I think it'd be really cool if people got to share and read other's stories as well :-).

I'll leave the link to the form in case somebody wants to do so:

https://forms.gle/7RJGGhy9FyDUJ8tv7

And they will be posted on this site:

Thank you for reading!

Best way of building a site without Node?

The main reason why i wanted to build a personal site on Neocities was to get creative after work and be able to code for fun. So the last thing I wanted to do was set up node and start requiring dependencies like 11ty.

Now, I do agree that as soon as you add a bunch of cool things and scripts into a site it gets tedious to repeat all navigation bars and head elements and paste them into each and every html file whenever you update one of them, so I understand that there's a need for something more than just plain old html.

I've been figuring out my own solution for this for the time being, but I'm curious if there are any known tools or ways of handling this that are out of my radar. Just to be clear, I mean things that give you a "dev-environment" as close as pure html as possible, while still having a little bit of templating or reusable components for quality of life.

I built an interactive space canvas for personal sites! Come join Cosmic Club

​

Hi everyone!

I built Cosmic Club, an interactive space canvas and directory where personal websites can float around in space.

If you would like your site to join the space canvas, here is what you need and how to do it:

  1. Custom Space Artwork: Create a graphic (a planet, spaceship, or any space element) in 200x200 px with a transparent background (PNG or GIF).

  2. Site Button: Have your standard 88x31 button ready.

  3. Google Form: Submit your site info and upload both images through the form.

Would love to hear your thoughts and see your custom space artwork!
