AUGUST 2022

Bros,

POLLS ARE UP || RECORDINGS ARE UP

PATREON NEWS ★

No changes.

SITE NEWS ★

• Updated Gallery with new Nomination page. Should be way less cumbersome for you all lmao (see the shitpost video for details)
• ->Eventually I'll embed that video into a help button on the page, bear with me
• Updated the Gallery's login system to v3, which further increases the granularity of it and also overhauled the way it reads Patreon's API to be WAY cleaner. There *is* currently a bug where occasionally Patreon's API will return this weird wrong password message that I haven't been able to figure out yet, but if it happens you can just refresh the page to get around it
• Updated the Gallery's master.js to version 2 which cleans up a lot of the user information stuff and organized all of the window level functionality. Also updated the modals and implemented an actual error display modal so if something goes wrong, the page doesn't just sit in an error state
• ->There are still some rough edges to shave down with this (like the modal popup on the Polls page) but I'll get all of them sorted out eventually
• Implemented a bunch of isolated controls (like the file upload handler on the nomination page, and the new select2 dropdowns) which will make further development a lot easier
• Switching my assistant scripts over to AHK so they'll be easily movable between controls . If you're interested, the repo is here 
• Flash is WAY more usable on my new hardware, thank god
• In September I'm going to (attempt to) go through the Gallery and prune out all of the old functionality that's build up over the years (IE get rid of old unused procedures, pages, etc) and give the whole thing a deep clean. Any current functionality that's still hooked into this will blow up if my regex dives don't find it, so if the Gallery randomly dies for a couple days somewhere in there it's probably because I'm in the middle of doing that
• Also I have a new definition for the Gallery cooking (the one that will support folders), not sure if that will make it into September but it might

ADDITIONAL NEWS ★

• The scribble poll had a tie last month so, I got both of em in there for ya (the SQ and the Garde)
• The Ruto piece still needs a bit of elbow grease till she's finished out, so expect that to be coming down the pipe somewhere in here

PERSONAL STUFF ★

August wasn't as bad as I was expecting. Hanging in there.

Thanks everyone; hope you all find something nice in this month's batch.

<3!
