Welcome to my little corner of the internet!
I'm Frode, and I spend a lot of time online, so I figured it's about time I make my own little corner of the interweb to hang out in!
As you may be able to tell this is slowly growing to be a somewhat sizeable site, although it's not a rapid developement. :) For the moment, my tumblr blog may be more interesting. It's absolutely more well-developed than this site, so far! I have been on tumblr for nearly seven years, now! Though in fairness, all of that wasn't spent on that account specifically.
Though I am at a point where I'm pretty pleased with how much I've learned there's still a lot left to do! If you're curious about my plans, I have a to do-list in the sidebar :) See something interesting? Come back later and it may exist! Also, as an aside, I usually keep my pc on night light mode, so if you want to see this site how I usually see it, check that out! I obviously like both variants, but night mode has a special spot in my heart...
For now, all the love to you, and may our paths cross again!
Important!! There are flashing lights (blinkies) on some of the pages!! I will figure out how to be able to tag them in time, but am still a complete beginner! Keep away from vampires, mainly, for now - the rest should be fine atm :)
Who, me? Who I am?I am an adult, and am making this site for my own enjoyement. As such, this site is intended for other adults. Things such as gore or nsfw text may come up, especially on the vampire pages. Viewer discression adviced. (Recipes are all very clean though!)
Updates
06/May/24 New book review over on rambling! Not even by Greider, this time!
21/Apr/24 Vampires page has gotten some love since last time, and I've written another book review thingy. Oh, and I'm in my first webring! Check it out over on the rambling page :)
08/Apr/24 New creature added! Somewhere... I'm still around!
27/feb/24 New page! My flowchart for what to do when the energy just isn't there haha
26/feb/24 Added a sitemap! Both for ease of access and for my own peace of mind... Now let's see if I manage to keep it up-to-date
23/feb/24 Vampires still a WIP, but it's getting there! Yay! I've learned a lot already!
14/jan/24 Vampires is getting revamped! It's still very much a WIP (and does not function on mobile yet...), but it's much closer to what I want. It's also forcing me to (finally) learn some more CSS. Exciting!
09/jan/24 FINALLY figured out how to make a button to change fonts for the page easily! I hope that makes this site a bit more accessible! Take care!
20/dec/23 Added a new page, about Yule :) Hopefully a decent read! (find in sidebar of toy box for now) Think I also forgot to update when I made my last essay, Epiphyllum Oxypetalum :)
29/sep/23 Made the rambling page less... intense. It should be a generally calm space now :) Go there and have some tea, why don't you? Some other general fixes, too.
27/aug/23 Many small fixes. Syktyvkar campaign mostly finished. Some more buttons, some changes to me-page, and so forth.
18/aug/23 Added some recipes rather than doing anything particularly useful, irl or on here. Updated home page of easily read version! Now to play some Call of Cuthulu and maybe fix my washing maxhine... oop
17/aug/23 Ooooh boy. Trying to completely overhaul the home pages! Wish me luck xoxo While a lot of the main pages are slowly taking shape, the easier font pages and such are lagging behind for today.
10/aug/23 Added a button that hopefully makes the site more dyslexia friendly. Press it!
9/aug/23 Added an updates section. Added toy box page. Teacups now on rambling page. Added campaigns page to vampire section. Began transferring Syktyvkar story. More work to do before it's done.
Resources used
The font used is called Venice Classic. My layout is (obviously) built on Sadgrl online's layout builder. I also have learned most of my CSS and HTML via her. Some blinkies come from the amazing blinkies cafe! The rest of my stuff has quite random origins, but if you press a graphic you'll usually find yourself at the site of the creator. If you don't, it's probably because I don't know the original creator. Usually that means it's from a collection without sources. Sometimes, stuff is my own, though! If you see something that isn't properly credited that you know the source of, please send me a dm on tumblr! thanks, and ily'all
The header of this page is a dithered variant of Meteor shower illustrated by Étienne Léopold Trouvelot. It is sourced from old book illustrations. A great source in general! Any other unsourced "detail" images on the moon-themed pages will be from there.
The top sidebar image is a detail from Love the sentinel, painted by Jean Honoré Fragonard. Mind you, he's made a handfull of iterations of that specific painting lol.
