So basically, I was doing the chima board background, and it wasn't working out properly, so out of frusturation, I made a class which showed how I felt. "chima_gosh_dangit".
Well hello there, I'm officially gonna start a blog sort of thing of development of this site, just going over all the 'behind-the-scenes' stuff, and maybe I'll even throw in a couple of quick and dirty tutorials on things concerning photoshop and some coding. I'll make sure I'll include my resources so if people are interested in this sort of things as well, you'll have some epic free stuff or something.
For now I'll list some of the external tools and resources I use.
Photo Editor: Affinity Photo Great program, it's usually £50 for a license (one-time) but they're currently doing a half price sale as of Mid-April. It's pretty much better than photoshop.
Fonts Repository: Google Fonts Probably the best place to get your fancy (and non-fancy) fonts. I use it all the time in doing things like creating badges, new forum logos, etc.
Coding resources: W3schools A truly excellent site containing almost everything you'd ever need to know about web coding, such as with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and a whole myriad of other languages. I use it a lot if I need to quickly look up what the functions are of various code elements.
Online Photoshop thingy: Photopea Even though it's online, it's probably one of the best photo editors I've used for quick things. It's not as simple as Paint, but not as complicated as photoshop. If you're editing on-the-go, I'd highly recommend!
Online Image Hosting: Vgy.me Arguably the best image hosting service available to any resident of the known universe. The only downside is that you have to have an account to be able to upload, but that's not really a problem. Fun-fact: every image on the LMB Beta theme is hosted on vgy!
Henny: Henny If you can't figure out for the life of you why this completely dumb, stupid css script won't work on your absolutely irritating forum code editor, then there is a simple solution. Bug Henny until he does it for you. It works!
But there we go, I will of course update this as I remember the other websites/programs/people I've used/use. Below I'll also keep up-to date the task I'm currently working on for LMBE so you guys can incessantly tag me when I'm procrastinating. If you're interested in this sort of thing then I can put you on a tag list for when I post some quick-and-dirty tutorials on random stuff.
TASKS:
Completed: -Photoshopping the 2017/18/19 EBA Bages
In-Progress: -Implementing the EBA Badges into user's profile pages
Better than photoshop? That's a high recommendation.
