Finding a new home (Gumroad replacement)

in case you were unaware, Gumroad has decided to nuke all NSFW art.. it seems for now they are okay with what I have on there so I shall continue using it for as long as I can. but in the meantime I am looking for a replacement and I think I finally have the solution!

what are these images above I hear you ask? I've recently decided to get help with building my own website! i've thought about it in the past but I now finally have the motivation I need to actually start! these images above are the vibe I am going for. I want a website that screams nostalgia and is full of little charming things that call back to the days of the early internet. its still very early still and I am yet to properly plan anything out so stay tuned! this will be the replacement for Gumroad and will take quite some time to develop!

these websites were made on neocities.org go check it out if you haven't already! (I am not using neocities to make this)

how do you feel about this? am I the only one that thinks that websites need to bring back personality like they used to? are you sick of the boring designs of today's websites? talk about it in the comments!

Personal websites have been a trend in/with many NSFW creators. A comic creator I support went with a personal website recently after blogspot did that. sindyannajones 3D model comics. I am all for it. Be you in a space you control.

The big problem with web design today is that people have become reliant on AI or templates to do a lot of the work for them. If you could figure out how to do it, you should absolutely try to figure out a way to get Jade to be some sort of "assistant" on the site like the old Microsoft paperclip...or just eye candy if you want to go that way lol

I agree, but it’s not the layout Im going for here its the aesthetic. i think I can make a much cleaner layout than something like whet I have shown here.
