Raisca's Ramblings

Remember when I said I could totally play games all week if I wanted to? 
Didn't play, not even once all week. Are you surprised? I'm not. 
It seems I'm really bad at having fun...

But I did start working on a new look for my website. I don't want to completely change it, I love the look in general, but I want to add more things and make it more fun. I'm just not sure yet how to do that and where to host it, cause Carrd - where I have it now - is really nice, but limited. 

I can either adapt my ideas to work within Carrd's limitations - which can be a fun challenge, like a puzzle to resolve, but the end result will never be exactly what I want - or I can invest more time into making it all from scratch myself, somehow. 
I've made a few websites back in the early 2000's. I used Dreamweaver and Flash. So even it that knowledge is rusty, I have it. The problem is Dreamweaver died and Flash was killed dead. So I've been looking into what options are available these days. 

I don't like how all the websites look the same now. All very modern. And adaptive to mobile screens. *shudders* I hate using the web on my phone. I can't see anything in that small screen, it absolutely sucks! I want an old school website, to be seen on a computer screen, with the elements exactly where I want them, not jumping around. I want a visual experience, not a commercial venue. I don't want to sell you anything, I just want to show you pretty things!
(Well, ok, maybe I can let you know that you can buy this or that, if you want, and provide a link, but that's it)

Oh! Another thing I started is getting on Substack! So from now on, I'll be posting both here and there. Same content though, it's hard enough to have something to say every week, ahah. In fact, here I separate the text posts from the art posts. There, if the idea is to turn it into a newsletter kind of thing, I'll post everything together, only once a week. 

Usually I write these posts in the morning, and then post the pictures in the afternoon. I have to see how that will work now. It will take some trial and error until is flows properly, I suppose.
