Oof, last post was a few months ago XD

I’ve coded a new personal thread that’s basically a diary of one of my characters. [I made the first post a slide show.](https://forum.wackywriters.com/t/topic/11114) Hope it looks nice, especially on mobile. Took me a while to code it.

Just testing text that’s invisible to light-mode users only as well as text that’s invisible to dark-mode users only.

All right, this should be invisible if you use light mode. Can you read what’s below this paragraph? It should be invisible to you (unless you highlight it, I guess).

This should be invisible in dark mode. For you, the key is within your reach. Hmmm. Have you gone hunting for pianos?

If anyone’s wondering, the color to make dark-mode-invisible text is #3f3f3f

For real? 🤯

Maybe in this thread, but I’ve seen others playing with code in their personal threads 👀 I know @korralistic and @tellyouwhat have been making pretty cool code in their personal threads recently (_jay’s anatomy_ and _ana’s wild world_ respectively)

True, that’s why I posted here recently 😔

Would you like to see a WIP of a thread I’m working on? 👀

Awww, thanks 🤧 it means a lot coming from a coding veteran like you 🥺

Here’s a WIP, I may or may not make a music thread this summer 👀

  _for the love of music..._ _pro amore musicae_ Welcome, patron, to _pro amore musicae_, a place for musicians and listeners to gather and bond over their love of music. Whether you have years of experience with music or are new to the scene, you are always welcome. Feel free to take the center stage and showcase your latest performances, whether they be recordings of concerts or practice sessions in your humble abode. More of the listener type? Feel free to sit back and watch. If you're into musical discussions, don't hesitate to start one! Anything musical—audio recordings, performance clips, musical video essays, or even music festival gossip—can absolutely be shared here!
