`TeeEffDee`
that is one of my theories anyway
or it could be simply that in some browser patch it got broken: not many sites animate things by changing an img's src tag.. or simply a win10 update broke something? there are many possibilites 🤔

music to my ears 👍
it's original form is not lost and you can check it on archive:

but I'm not sure if I should bother to restore it (as it seems it was more of a proof of concept and hacking example)
2023-11-04 10:47:17
please check if flipbooks are ok on your end

(these still use the old method)

I replaced the tech, now we use a canvas to draw the animation
please check it now
scaling of old anims with smaller size got a bit broken in the process - I'm working on it now
edit: should be fine now
edit2: stars and avatar also got broken (argh)
edit3: should be fixed now
edit4: and added a quick fix for the first frame
our only casuality so far is `Carrot^abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzabcdefghijklmnopqr new line` 's scale animation hack:

also I realised it might be the timing
(so far I could reproduce it on very fast anims - simply the img changes faster than the browser could redraw and i have a 144hz monitor so that might be a key difference: for now I added a minimal change and the animation frame is only updated when the browser redraws the page)
just double checking how rare this happens: does it happen on this anim?

sounds like that it might be a caching related problem 🤔
I'll try and rewrite the animation with a different method and we will see (probably changing the url for an img element was not that a hot idea after all 🤔 )

`Scones and Cones` that's strange chrome should be ok 🤔
( are you on the latest one Version 119.0.6045.106 or a very old one? perhaps on a tablet? )
so far I only found a small bug with the page titles but I doubt that was the cause 🤔
anyway if you do a right click in chrome
and select 'Inspect'
do you see anything under Issues? (it should be in lower right corner of the screen)
2023-11-03 07:39:54
`Scones and Cones`
that is probably a javascript error somewhere 🤔
which browser do you use?
2023-11-03 00:30:48
I found a new way to hack the scrolling
how is it now?
(to reduce blinking it's seems I would need to do some async page load instead because web tech is still in the dark ages
according to my experiments with iframe it still blinks just in a smaller area)
2023-11-02 19:47:21
Scones: you are always so nice with everyone
come to think of it
you and Painovoima are birds of a feather 🙂
2023-11-01 19:53:47
the css is stored in the page code itself because there were problems with caching (browsers refused to update them if i changed them and insisted on using an older version)
another reason is the php - I built all pages using a header-body-footer logic and they all have seperate tags for it (so at least 3 sections for each page)
and also some pages are just in need of a cleanup (e.g. the ones that the strips and the forum posts use)
(and of course it's also web page code written by a c++ coder's logic)
2023-11-01 19:21:49
I simply need to rethink how the navigation works
and somehow resize the frames (to not get double scrolling)
i'm just not in the right headspace for it and bungling about
(with the php framework the site uses I broke down pages to 3 or more parts and need to untangle my mess first so a page has standalone css and can be put in a frame )
2023-11-01 18:09:53
it seems there is no easy solution - there will be probably some javascript shenanigans needed to get it to work
(and if only the page scrolling is the problem then we might as well just add a hack for that instead - would be probably faster at least 🤔)
edit: added a quick hack for it (the scroll thing)
but now I'm not sure if it's any better 🤔
2023-11-01 14:10:37
I experimented around (and made things considerably worse)
please check if this is a step in the right direction (this goes for everyone) 🤔
I couldn't get this iframe business to work yet (html is all fun and games until you add php to the mix)
and flex just doesn't seem to want to behave the same way as in your page so the user info is now in the header of the profile (last active and level)
edit: and I just noticed I forgot to readd the star counter (oops)
edit2: readded star counter - made things even worse
2023-11-01 10:04:15
I think I should be more pragmatic about this.. 🤔
so for now I'll just rearrange things to look like in your version
and the friends will be on the seperate tab at first because that will be an easier change
and then we will see (so we can put it in a pop-up then if you guys prefer it that way)
2023-11-01 08:55:56
half kidding at least
anyway I'd prefer to just leave it as it is for now
2023-10-31 19:42:46
shush 🤫 (as I said it's by design - this makes the complain button harder to find 🤫 )
2023-10-31 18:57:26
oh that is by design
I put the not so important parts on the footer
and it's not fixed to the screen at all
2023-10-31 16:24:34
oh wait I think I misunderstood (maybe?)
so the friends tab in this case should bring up the other user profile?
I think it's that unfriend button that is confusing me 🤔
2023-10-31 08:10:22
good stuff 👍
i'm only not sure about putting friends in a pop-up 🤔
what if I place them in their own tab and make that the default tab when you open a profile? 🤔
(also sorry about having so much pages 😔 - the reason for that was that early on everything was planned around making the site to be archiveable as easily as possible)
2023-10-30 16:37:14
all this covid business seems so long ago but I still have trouble drawing and coding with the same efficency as before
(which is why you are safe from seeing more of these characters or more frequent site updates)
but I really wanted to make another halloween one
luckily these stories write themselves 🤔

- NSFW panels are now in a seperate tab for users
###### revision 1403
2023-10-26 11:55:58
hmm.. well we could put the nsfw panels into a different tab anyway (so you don't have to do it one by one) 🤔
2023-10-26 10:24:44
anyway .. so anyone else experienced problems with the backups? (it might be related to drawing on tablet or phone)
2023-10-26 10:24:09
done
`🔳` we unanimously decided that you can upload anytime now
how do you feel about this?
2023-10-26 10:20:24
for me it's just strange that anyone takes this seriously 🤔
(I mean this is not exactly an art portfolio site.. like for me the whole point would be that they are all scraps and just have fun and .. but I don't want to force this view on anyone either)
maybe it could be a number based system
like you could give each of your panels a score
-1 would be scraps
0 normal
1 turned out well (featured?)
of course this is just for the database
you would see icons for it
e.g: 😀 😐 💩
and then we can either sort them based on this score
or just put them in different sections 🤔
but I'm just brainstorming again
