New year, new WordPress theme: introducing Web Cave 1.1.0. Readability The problem with having an ironic web theme that’s intentionally bad is that.. it’s bad. The original custom WordPress theme for this site sucks and I’m tired of looking at it. Web Cave 1.1.0 is a readability revision that maintains the “3edgy haxor” feel of […]
Read MoreBefore the holiday I noticed that the game listing in the Game Picker 9000 didn’t clear on submission. If the user performed a submission with the box unchecked, then checked the box and submitted again, the result would have both played and unplayed games in the listing. In order for the filter to work properly, […]
Read MoreI added some new CSS spinners and other loading effects to the CSS Animation Archive. I felt the loaders section in general could use a bit more fleshing out. Spinning loaders are an obligatory CSS effect so I had to throw a couple in there. CSS Spinners I added two spinners. The first is the […]
Read MoreSay hello to “Shiver”, a Halloween CSS effect that is definitely not ripped from a popular cult cinema streaming service. I added it to the the CSS Animation Archive project in the spirit of the season. Simple Halloween CSS Boyfriend and I have been pounding Giallo films on Shudder for the past two weeks, and […]
Read MoreI’ve furthered the UX enhancement to the Game Picker 9000. First I centered the loader and positioned it below the title output container. Previously it was jammed on top with no padding. If you searched more than once, the loader popped in awkwardly. The new alignment is more pleasing. I also added the player’s username […]

Additionally, the Game Picker now prints the total playtime of each game in the main listing. Playtime Filter Implementation The Game Picker 9000 uses the GetOwnedGames method within the Steam […]
Read MoreI’ve added a linear gradient to the rainbow animation in the CSS Animation Archive. The previous rendition was too plain. By happenstance, I came across this video by Kevin Powell, and it inspired the revision. The gradient pattern looks swankier than the plain text color fade, but it comes with a problem. Linear Gradient Won’t […]
Read MoreThe CSS Animation Archive has been updated with more css animations, a mobile fix, and a new section for animated loaders. The most notable new addition is Neon. There are a million tutorials out there for this kind of effect. In static form it’s just a bunch of layered text-shadow properties, but I spiced it […]
Read MoreA de-branded version of this site’s WordPress custom theme is now available on GitHub. You too can be a late 90s edgelord with the Web Cave theme! WordPress Custom Theme Features The Web Cave theme features standard post, page, and comment functionality with custom navigation. In addition, I added a projects post type that emphasizes […]
Read MoreThe CSS Animation Archive consists of CSS-only animations that I’ve used in my work. Some of them are modified from tutorials, and some are completely unique. Currently available sections include fancy looping effects and some simple rollovers. I’ve applied them to buttons for demonstration purposes, but they can be transferred to any kind of element. […]
