Anybody know of any graphic (blinkie, stamp, etcetera) sites that I haven't already listed on /miscellanea/techystuff? I would like to add more to our hoard, have exhausted the ones there (glitter-graphics and Adrian's which seem to be the two big ones), and refuse to use DeviantArt or Tumblr.

spacehey users have shared a ton of links on some of their blogs, but you'll have to search through the mountains of them... https://y2k.yorniq.xyz/blinkies has some nice ones, as well as https://blinkie.world/home and https://myblinkie.dazzlejunction.net/

Thank you! I was already aware of Y2K's, but blinkie.world is basically what I was looking for. Anything similar for stamps? I do think those are more of a DA phenomenon originally, though.

Hey there, thanks for the follow! The spacey layout and theming of your site looks super cool and I see we have some overlapping music tastes in the nu metal-adjacent region -- main suggestion is that it'd be nice to have an option to disable the UFO following your cursor; it's a bit distracting while reading.

Grabbed the team leader dialogue (there's not much of it) from Go Fest 2026 via datamines, and remembered I had screen recordings of Rocket leader battles I'd been sitting on for literal years. They'll be added to the Pokemon Go archives after Go Fest Copenhagen is done so I can get all the new texts and social media stuff at once. All of which are pretty disappointing.

@Niantic / Scopeley / TPC -- you can still redeem yourself if you make official merch of my little guys...I would totally buy anime-crush keychains and plushies of all the leaders tbh but especially Spark and Arlo.

Trying out an IFRAME-based system for sub-page level writing links. It feels like a nice compromise between separate HTML files for each writing snippet and the old loreboxes, since it saves space vs. a list of links and you can still read them on the page if you want but you can also open them in a new tab to view at full screen. If you like it, I'll start switching OC pages over to it.

it's not especially mobile friendly, but neither is the source material, and the NT embeds are readable if I turn my phone horizontally. future IFRAME-loreboxen will have the lore bits be responsive like the petpet spotlight plaintexts, but I thought it would be Fun And Neat to just port the NT HTML wholesale.

...what unicode characters could I use to get a :P emoticon effect but it looks like a forked tongue? :K, I irrevocably consider to be oversized vampire fangs because of Neopets.

google docs' glyph drawer is no help, either that or there is no character that looks how I want. :}⤙ is not bad I guess but I don't like the gap

draggianuniverse's avatar draggianuniverse 1 week ago

okay tell me how this looks on your screens; I used letter spacing to get rid of the gap. idk how I can make this work on responsive layouts. might futz around with it if I have other reason to use this emoticon > https://draggianuniverse.yorniq.xyz/neopets/contests/empire.html

go fest chicago is actively happening. tokyo already took place. there were supposed to be team takeovers on the social medias (checked nitter)...there has been no dialogue from the team leaders, and all the images of them seem to be copy and pastes of their default 3D models. they are the theme for this event. where are my little guys and why is it not in the 10th anniversary art

There will be a Go Fest 2026 Dudesverse story, but I have no ideas. I don't play Pokemon Go anymore; I only check Pokeminers and Nitter for theoretical archives updates, but I'm still pissed -- I was promised my little guys and I'm getting NOTHING.

draggianuniverse's avatar draggianuniverse 1 week ago

there has not been any meaningful "lore" or team leader images on the socials since 2022; Dual Destiny was fucking amazing but as of 2025 they have basically...stopped doing special research at all? still fuckin love the dudesverse and my pokemon world AU, and have been friends with these guys for 10 years, but there's a reason I've had less Pokemon Go flavoring as of late

draggianuniverse's avatar draggianuniverse 1 week ago

I really want to do a Go Fest story -- it's a tradition, and the big anniversary, and why the Dudesverse exists at all...but I don't have any in-character ideas (Zane's whole inception is kinda a mess and I may just rewrite it, and also he's only RRverse meta-Arlo-wish fulfillment) because 2025 finishes Arlo's personal arc, and the game is giving me nothing.

(Meteor Falls, the RRverse Award Show, and the crossover with Zahori & Verse are still in progress, but have gotten sidelined due to Art Fight and the shock to my morale. /thoughts_archive/personal but tldr I got illegally evicted from the rental I JUST got to at the end of April. dw i have a new place but still reeling)

draggianuniverse's avatar draggianuniverse 1 week ago

okay I've got a good idea now. it's gonna have some real self indulgent pokemon anniversary shit and also some parallels to the emotional climax in Go Fest 2025...you'll see. it'll get done UH sometime in August probably because art fight but I'll try to get it out during fest season unlike last year
