I've taken a lot of inspiration from other Neocities website creators on how to make a clean but visually appealing website!
In particular, I'd like to cite The Works of Egan as a guide on how to make clean article-format website pages, and Oopsie Doodle as inspiration for cohesive themeing (and also the really cute navigation bar.)
Many images on this site are taken from Google Image results and adjusted to best fit my website's theme. I like to take my own photos or create my own assets when I can, and maybe one day I'll replace the images below with my own, but until I do that, they'll be credited here with what I believe to be the original source!
The original background seems to come from "colourcardsonline.com" but the original site doesn't work anymore. At some point it was a wordpress blog ? But current sources are of course mostly pinterest links. Here's the one I used.
