📢psa: moving to neocities

I'm moving everything to my new website.

It''s still under construction but it's presentable with everything in one place: portfolio, commissions info, projects, blog. Nothing Stardew related is up yet because there's so much Dx but you can read The Jupiters and Darling Villainess there right now. Any updates regarding my visual novels will be posted there. I'll keep posting here on tumblr about my SDV portrait mod for now since you guys are my biggest support, but I haven't decided if I'm going to move away from tumblr completely yet. If you're on neocities please follow me there. I haven't learned how to do RSS yet, but that should be up shortly if you don't want to make a neocities account.

Why?

If you weren't already aware, a tumblr staff member leaked that tumblr sold us out, not surprising, but it's not just that they've joined the ai bandwagon, they included our private posts, msgs, etc, made it opt-out instead of opt-in, and the anti crawl request list (robots.txt) that updates when you opt-out only includes a few bots and as far as I've been able to figure out, is uneditable. The only reason they addressed it was because we made a stink. They had no plans to tell us and it was already too late. If you happen to use carrd, which is what I was doing for my "website" and portfolio, you can't edit the robots.txt without buying a subscription and it allows all crawlers by default. And I wasn't even paying anyway so I still don't have my own domain name regardless. Now on neocities, I can do whatever I want. It's free real estate. except filehosting. don't do that. It only took me two weeks to stop trying to overcomplicate things in the short run to make things easier in the long run. They have templates so you don't even have to learn that much coding. Bring back old internet!

What's happening with my tumblr?

I'm slowly going to backup and delete my sideblogs. I honestly don't know if I should keep @flapjacs-old and this one up. For now I will, at least until the transition is complete. Seeing as how I'm an artist and an artist with little to no reach, I'm stuck at the moment needing to keep social media.

I'm restyling my carrd to prep for opening commissions and this link image was fun to make so I wanted to share!

If you haven't seen the mod before, it's on the official forum and moddrop! All the portraits are my favorite but this is hands down the portrait of all time.

You guys have all been super cool <333 but for context, on other platforms I got a lot of shitty comments that obviously came from a place of warped beauty standards, self-hatred, sexism, and/or racism, but jokes on them, those posts got more reach because of it. It's free real estate. >:)

jacs' Portraits will NOT work with the 1.6 update!!

me omw to play the update: :D me remembering I have to check my mods: :/ me remembering I have to check MY mod: D: oh my god I'm skimming through the changelog to see if I can get rid of any mods but trying to avoid spoilers. goddamn. that's a lot of stuff. too much to read. I guess I'll find out. oh my god the mod I requested was updated i'm so happy. It was the only one I really needed for accessibility

okay onto my mod. As I said before, it might break, and it do be broken.

This is due to dependencies. I highly doubt I'll get the new portraits drawn and added in before Wren updates HD Portraits.

Here's the info from HD Portraits nexus mod page:

swyrl 27 February 2024, 6:07PM HD Portraits is currently being updated to stardew 1.6, and there will be no more development for 1.5. The new version will include several new features, and improved documentation- New, easier-to-use pack format Simpler, more flexible animation format The ability to reorder, enable, and disable packs Old-format packs will continue to be supported for backwards compatibility, but it is recommended to use the new format after 1.6. Additonally, example packs will be included in the optional files. HD Portraits for 1.6 will be made available soon.

You will NOT need Aerocore for the next version of HD Portraits!

For using the PyTK version: officially dead! I think it's being recommended to delete anything with PyTK and iirc it had been for a while. I had it available jic but now I don't have to. Noice.

oh god I forgot to unequip stuff before updating. oh thank god, fyi if you have the wear more rings mod:

bcmpinc 20 March 2024, 4:18AM The ring that you have now, is a combination of all rings you had equipped previously. If you want your rings back, you can put it in the ring forge in the volcano and deconstruct it. Or hold on to it until this mod is updated.

for those of you using my sdv portrait mod...

^ which would you prefer first? cough assuming i ever get around to it cough

if you haven't seen the mod before here ya go! sdv forum moddrop

Forgot to say, this is how far I got last stream! I'm thinking another session tomorrow.

Here's what I got so far! I accidentally had chat locked to subscriber's only, idk how I did that. And I only found out because I saw a dm from a friend an hour after she sent it. But thank you if you came to watch!

I may or may not stream again in an hour or two, but I need a break rn. Otherwise, I'll probably stream again tonight same-ish time, 1800PDT.

Twitch stream tomorrow, Wed 15;

shooting for 1800 PDT (GMT-7)!

Brainstorming seasonal outfits for my SDV Portrait mod,

but first things first, we finally fix penny's blue outfit bc it's not a dress #spoilers

Running late, stream will be at 1900! Hope you can make it! Hope I can make it sheesh. No I will I swear, I'm just making food.

my mod dependencies change

i change them on my pc

i forget about the rest of you

OH ALSO, Content Warning: some of my art is mature content and will be tagged as #18+ even if it's considered pg13 by creepy hollywood standards. If you are not comfortable with mature content you can hide it from your dash under settings>account>filtering. Please dni on these posts if you are not 18+.

Thank you! Welcome! and later nerdsss~
