So back when I first made a decent website I used a very distinct theme, a black background with a magenta accent colour. I was pretty happy with this and it was quite similar to my profile picture and logo at the time, while using a very ascii and text based design as the whole thing was just HTML and CSS on github pages. Since then I progressed to Bootstrap and then to Astro with Tailwind and uh, just tailwind i think. Anyway, during my move to Tailwind I decided to re-theme around Catppuccin. This is a theme that I love and personally use everywhere that I can. So onto the website it went. I designed this website at my grandparents holiday house in Tasmania, I remember showing it to my girlfriend and she said something along the lines of “it just doesnt really feel like you anymore.” I was pretty stoked with my website at the time but the more i have thought about it the more i have realised that it just doesnt fit. My homepage is a mess of colours and conflicting themes and I like my pfp to much to change that so I’m changing the website instead.
Two things:
I am changing from Catppuccin Mocha and Latte to my custom dynight theme(name open to change lol). here is what i am thinking:
These are just the colours from Catppuccin Latte as I really like them, but they will be modified as I use them alot of the colours are sticking around purely for backwards compatibility as I am too lazy to go through and look for all the uses of the old Catppuccin related code.
I was going to re-create my old website design, but have an intermediary design while I procrastinate the recreation, but as I have now created that intermediate design I think I will stick to this design for a while. Its a mashup of my last design and my first, that I think looks quite nice.
More blogposts, more yap, more projects, more typos.
I want to write a new blog post now but my laptop is on 10%, so I guess I wont :<
