Guestbook
As you step into the cozy confines of the town’s quaint post office, the creaking of the wooden door echoes softly in the air. Your gaze is immediately drawn to a colossal guestbook sitting atop a polished mahogany desk. Hovering gracefully above it is a pixie, her soft glow casting a warm ambiance throughout the room. She flutters with excitement as you approach.
“Greetings, esteemed traveler! Your arrival is a welcomed breeze in our peaceful town. Would you be inclined to leave an indelible mark within the pages of our cherished guestbook? Your name and a heartfelt message shall forever grace the tales of those who venture through Satyadasa.”
Her enthusiastic charm becons you closer, inviting you to contribute to the rich tapestry of stories woven by fellow wanderers who’ve passed through this magical enclave. β¨
I just randomly found your website while scrolling through status.cafe. Very neat site, I like how it keeps the old web feel but delivers properly on mobile. Very cool π
Thanks a bunch Airdoggy! I’ve been experimenting with various themes the past few months to see which runs smoothest and most responsive without needing a bunch of tweaking. So far this one seems like the winner! π Still have a few pages to update but it’s coming along. π
Thanks a bunch for stopping by and I hope you had a lovely Christmas and Happy Holidays!
The holiday aesthetics of your page are so nice! Whole heartedly agree with your opinions on social media these days too. The small web has been such a nice space to decompress and take breaks from it. I still make use of accounts on certain platforms just for freelancing sake between jobs, but I’ve changed extremely with how much I engage or share out in public. The web revival movement has been incredible to take part in with finding folks like yourself and others in the community, and feel a lot more causal and relaxed again about sharing the smaller things on my mind~
Also the poll feature included on the sidebar is so fun! Is that an external web widget of some kind or was it coded from scratch? :0c Would love to include polls of some sort around my own homepage down the road haha!
Thank you so much for your kind words, Pira! I completely feel the same. For a long time I stopped really sharing much on mainstream platforms because I always felt self conscious knowing their policies. Facebook used to be a fun place but it’s become very uptight in recent years. I still have a few mainstream accounts myself but they’re lightly used these days. My site is my primary activity hub. π₯° I am glad the small web has given you the same sense of peace and you feel more open in your own space! That’s how it should be. β€οΈ
As for the poll, it is actually part of my forminator plugin! I used WordPress to create my website so a few features like the poll, forms, and activity feed are all plugins that add additional functionality to the site. Check out Censorine’s website on my Clubhouse page! She has a poll feature on her website and I think she uses an external web widget for hers. Hope that helps!
Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you had a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! π
Hello again! I’ve commented before, but wanted to say I love the winter theme and the new changes! This is one of a few sites that I keep coming back to to see its evolution. Looks great!
Hey Gloogo! Thanks for stopping by, it’s great to see you again! That warms my heart that you enjoy revisiting π it’s definitely come a long way since I’ve started. I see yours has as well! I was looking to see if you had a website button but couldn’t find one. π I’d love to be mutuals with you if you’re interested in being my web friend! I have a Clubhouse page here on my site where I share all my mutuals and favorite sites. I have a button of my own there as well for anyone who’d like to add me back. π No worries though if you don’t want to! I’ve still gone ahead and added your site to my favorites. π
Thanks again for stopping by! It’s always a pleasure to hear from you and I look forward to seeing your site continue to evolve as well. Happy Holidays! π₯°
Hi again Aevisia! I wanted to comment again to say that your poll questions are always so thought-provoking and can usually be argued for in any direction. I love it! I also wanted to ask if you’ve ever heard of “The Secret Teachings of all Ages” by Manly P. Hall. It’s an interesting book, and you may like it! Glad to see you are doing well!
Hey Amy! Thank you so much! It’s neat seeing what most folks tend to lean towards. π
I haven’t heard of that book but I just looked it up and it looks like it’d be right up my alley! Thanks so much for recommending it to me, I will check it out! π
It’s always a pleasure to hear from you Amy. ^_^ I hope you’re doing well as well. Happy Holidays! β₯
