hi critters! i'm excited to finally unveil my main website in it's fully-functioning glory! yay! :D
the html and css have been updated thanks to @codarobo's wonderful work, and the result is a beautiful and accessible webpage where you'll find all of my commission info & a permanent art gallery, among other things!~

🌲🐾 please follow your local forest trail to...

i love it!! it's so you :3

i'll point out two small things that might need fixing:

  • your email address goes out of bounds on the commissions page in mobile view
  • the empty borders around the page take up too much space in mobile view

i think addressing #2 would fix #1

looks really good! my main nitpick is how little of the page i can see at once, with a kind of squashed laptop screen basically the whole thing is taken up by borders and nothing else. also performance issue sbut that's just fixable. neat design! }:3

Out of curiosity are problems you’re seeing possibly related to things loading slowly or is it more like things not fitting on screen or something else? Currently i think there’s still an issue with image files being too big/needing compression, so that might cause some loading/performance problems, curious if that might be related.

Oh huh, interesting. It’s designed to shift to the mobile layout based on your horizontal browser resolution (which you can see in action in a desktop browser if you just squish your window horizontally), very curious why that isn’t happening on your phone! If you don’t mind me asking what type of phone is it?

I get the same issue @the-Backdash mentioned on a Google Pixel 3a running chrome.
It seems to adjust some elements to mobile view like the header, hamburger menu and images in the gallery when selecting individual pieces, but it doesn't do anything else. I need to zoom out for the website to be usable on mobile
But it is usable at least :p

I also get performance issues on desktop regardless of animations

from a brief look at it it seems like the #forest_bg element is setting the page width wider than expected so the 98% width on the #content element becomes more than the viewport width (though this is weird bc its width shouldn't be influenced by that)

setting the width of #content with vw units instead fixes it but the page remains too wide if you scroll to the side, maybe you could use a container with overflow-x hidden to help with that

hope this helps, i've been fighting with getting my own site to look good on mobile and it's a p a i n
