i honestly want to see someone try to explain the phrase "big dick energy" to their parents
It's like small dick energy, but big.

This reminds me of the time I explained furries to my MIL in the least offensive way I could muster. We told her explicitly "don't Google it", and less than 5 mins later she couldn't take it anymore and Googled it.

I break it up into smaller pieces. If the smaller pieces work individually, it's easier to find where the problem is. This piece works, this piece works, this one doesn't... And then I can narrow it down.

With HTML, the issue is usually an unclosed tag or an attribute missing a closing quote. Sometimes a typo. It's easy to start there. I don't make a lot of these anymore because I'm very particular about indentation and my IDE text changes color if something is broken, but when I'm helping someone else, this is the first place I look.

With CSS, it can be a typo (I type "colro" and "fnot" a lot, for example), missing semicolon, missing curly brace.

With JavaScript, it's usually a programmatic error because I still have more to learn. Things not happening in the right order, or missing an important step.

Once you have a feel for the types of mistakes you make regularly, it's easier to find them later, or just prevent them in the first place.

I've loved this theme since you first shared it on PBS. Don't have much feedback right now, but hopefully these can help you.

It's easy to test resolutions using Chrome's DevTools! You can even test lower connection speeds:

If you want to get thorough and have $30 to spend, I like BrowserStack to test OS and browser combinations:

ProBoards does not support PHP, no.

PHP is a server-side language, and ProBoards does not give you access to the server where your forum is hosted.

Oh, you're right, my bad :0)

I haven't roleplayed since 2013, kind of fell out of it as life got busier and my interests shifted. Tried again earlier last year, but couldn't get even manage to write up the physical description for a character. ;_; I've just accepted that I'll probably never get back into it. That's ok, though, my niche is helping others with their own sites. So if you do see me around, it will probably be providing coding help, haha!

Thank you for the welcomes!

My name is Elli!

Low-key here to stalk you all because I think that the animanga fandom between ProBoards and Jcink generate some really creative themes. I did put off registering for a while after WW closed, but it looks like activity is in a good place now, so here I am.

Some things:

I'm 25 years old as of this post, and have been haunting ProBoards for somewhere in the vicinity of 12 years. I'm a UI developer by trade, so I'm mostly just good for code these days, but there was a time when I was more of a designer. It turns out that coding eight hours a day, five days a week will change the way your brain thinks. Design skill is still useful, though!

Since this is an animanga resource forum, I suppose I should mention that as a '90s kid, Pokémon is easily my favorite anime. Dragon Ball Z and One Punch Man are also pretty cool! I've seen lots of others, like Death Note, Naruto, SAO, Boku No Hero, but tend to get frustrated by the cliches within the genre medium.

You probably won't see me much because, again, here2lurk, but might pop in occasionally!
