Nyctophilia; a coding thread (new/old coders are encouraged to join!)

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. Hope it looks nice, especially on mobile. Took me a while to code it.

This is so cool :pleading_face:

Thanks! :blush:

Wait till his unsent love letters come out :eyes: they’re quite… interesting

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

a;sdlkjf stop calling me out :sob: /j

Just helping some people with looking for keys :wink: :shushing_face:

jokes on you, I have an extension that makes everything darker on my screen so I still see both lmao

Considering that, I’m wondering how you haven’t found it then, haha

I was busy in school lol :sob:

I made a greeting card…


Merry Christmas!

and there’s a link in there too :wink:

Tried a thread layout based on a coding challenge given by @korralistic

You’re the only person to have touched any code this year o.o

For real? :exploding_head:

Maybe in this thread, but I’ve seen others playing with code in their personal threads :eyes: 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)

Ahh personal threads xD, that’s where everyone went.

Still sad to see this section of the forum abandoned >.<

True, that’s why I posted here recently :pensive:

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

Definitely! Always interested in seeing cool stuff and the stuff you make is always super artistic.

Awww, thanks :sneezing_face: it means a lot coming from a coding veteran like you :pleading_face:

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

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!

Looks super neat. Can’t wait for the thread even though I’m the least musical person in the world.

Thank you! :heart: and even if you’re not musical, you’d be just as welcome there :hugs:

Thank you! :wisp_heart: it’s mostly me using the position:, left:, and top: properties :joy:
