ooo maybe placing more focus on what the character is observing? you can also hint at the direction they were facing using their actions! like:

The lasagna was fresh out of the oven, steam still rising off its melted, cheesy surface. Jon’s oven mitt hands placed it on the table, and from this angle, every inch of its deliciousness could be observed. As Jon turned to fetch a knife, the orange menace attacked from above.

... yes, i am hungry

A friend recommended it so now I use webmaker!! Unlike codepen it's private and can work offline too? So it's good for those concept-making/testing/blundering through designs that you probably don't want to show people.. /// 

When you're ready you can port it over to codepen with just a button though! Downside is that there's a bug where the viewport sometimes constricts more and more, but for that you can just fix it by doing an F12 and deleting some inline style kind of thing. Beggars can't be choosers; I can't afford codepen pro D;

i owe u my life. thank u. im so mad it took me this long to find this. the UI is easy on the eyes and it does that fancy shmancy predictive text thing that vastly saves on brain power, all while keeping out of public eye. i can finally become the coding goblin i was meant to be. there will be no end to the garbage manifested.

but responsive skins are super easy if you just take like 10 min to set up media queries/viewport. they're super easy to do, too.
idk, i code a ton for my job and never felt it was a chore. 
sometimes

i don't think they're too bad either (typically - i have coded the responsive site from hell), but it can take a long time to make sure everything works - because sometimes ur also basically just designing a new site for certain viewpoints, and that can be a huge pain


what breeze said! media queries are p simple but turning certain designs (esp if u got additions like multiple column layouts, sticky navs, overlaps etc.) can be tricky. squeezing a fancy desktop forum into a functional and aesthetically-pleasing mobile layout needs mental gymnastics and i admire those who can perform without busting a limb (and i hope to be able to do the same once ive gotten more experience skjdg)

before coding forum skin: responsive design and cross-browser compatibility are important!!!
after coding forum skin: responsive design and cross-browser compatibility are blights upon society, and should be outlawed
