You could try other visual media! Maybe even mixed media. Dadaism is a neat style that doesn't typically involve much drawing.

Uh, lately my tactic has been: sketch in my sketchbook, take a photo (I don't have a scanner), then digitize it with the line tool in Paint Tool Sai (which I highly recommend). Other than that, I can only offer the dreaded "practice," lol.

i'm all about collage! i think it's a really great way to express yourself :') and you don't neccesarily need physical media to do it either: you can do it digitally, with an app if you'd prefer! (Picsart is a really neat app that allows people to upload transparent pngs to use as stickers, it's rly fun!)

Thank you all for the replies!! I wish I could respond to you individually... and I doubt you guys will see this but I just put in a feature request for comment replies. Unlikely but at least I tried lol. I LOVE YOU ALL <3

I can't draw either. I use Inkscape. You manipulate nodes with a mouse and keyboard until the buggy-ass program crashes and you get angry. But it works most of the time.

Yes they look way better!! Now they're basically "stuck" onto the far edges of my screen and your content is perfectly centered!! Glad I could help! <33

Hi Teddy! I wanted to let you know your right sidebar is stuck in the middle of the screen when I view it on my PC (resolution: 1920x1080). I figured out how you can fix it, if you modify the right iframe's inline style by removing "left: 1114px;" and replacing it with "right: 0;". That way it will expand to fit larger screens!! Soz for the unsolicited advice OTL

So apparently if you sign up with an account at Archive.org, it gives you an option to "save outlinks" when you add a page, which will automatically archive all pages of the site. I had no idea!! Brb while I spend the next 6 hours archiving ;~;

yes! this is a great feature. when you save a page, it'll archive all the pages that are linked on that page. especially useful if you have a site map that links to every page on your site - then you can archive the whole thing in one go!!
