More work. I should honestly be working on stuff like the game, but this is a nice change of pace.
Today I:
- Further cleaned up the footer area, adding most of our social links + the GitHub source repo.
- Added text scrolling (typewriter) to the randomised home message
- Added //THE LINE// into most pages to separate the title and content.
- Updated all up posts up to now so they include a comment section
- Removed Twitter.

(specifically the Twitter link in the socials section. It's not done + idk if i wanna even use it..) - Learned we can keep the © on the footer. The US Patent and Trademark Office says so.
While many people believe that you must register your work with the U.S. Copyright Office before you can claim a copyright, no registration or other action in the Copyright Office is required to secure a copyright. A copyright is secured automatically when the work is created, as long as the work contains a sufficient degree of originality, and a work comes into being when it is fixed in a "copy or a phonorecord for the first time." This is consistent with the Berne Convention, which states that the "enjoyment and exercise" of copyright "shall not be subject to any formality."
tl;dr Copyright can be applied when a work is first created, provided it's original enough.
I know you ain't readin' allat.
