Limdimcomics.neocities.org

He just wants to share his art, comics, and characters.

And go make your own Neocities site!!!

Most of Neocities has such an amazing “old internet”-feel to it. I love it a lot. (:

If you have any nice comments about the site, please leave some here. I’ll read any nice stuff out to him this evening.

Much appreciated! Thank you! (:

    It looks so sweet and nostalgic. It reminds me of html sites I wrote with just a notepad around his age, but they didn’t have cool comics to show like his does though. Cheers to you for encouraging him (:

    I’ve been wanting to get into Neocities!! You can do something similar with GitHub if you’re a tad more technically minded, and make Microsoft host your (presumably radical and queer) art on their dime.

    This is super cool! I wish I did stuff like this when I was a kid. Tell Lim I like his drawing style and humor. And for the parent: keep this stuff and show it at his wedding.

      Lim says: “Thank you so much! You could always do stuff like this right now!”

      Ohh, I’m definitely storing these on some usb sticks and saving them for the future. (:

      There’s a private view/hit counter on editing page.

      Surprisingly, his page already has over 1000 views! Neocities has a little “discovery” hub, so I’m sure random folks may have seen it while sorting through. Makes me happy to know that it’s not just being buried!

      Thank you! I just learned how to code a month ago. Still some things I need to correct, but I’m super glad to hear that it was worth it!

    Those are cute and great! The left-right-L one actually had me chuckle to myself, that’s high praise on the internet.

    Might as well tech your kid how to rent a cheap vps, said up cloudpanel, or any other foss panel (copy and paste one command into the terminal) Then they can have multiple cheap websites (around 5-7$ a month total) with wordpress to play around with. (With a panel its easy to add domains like a.yoursite, b.yoursite, so you can test a bunch)

    As a kid I spent a lot of time on wix, geocities, webs, etc. Wish I had started self hosting sooner. It unlocks so many more possibilies. Like host your own minecraft server.

      He’s still trying figure out if he super-likes coding still enough to invest in it.

      I think there’s a tons of people who have been doing it for years who also still trying to figure out if they like it or not lol

      Just happy he has more avenues to be creative! Hope other kids and teens can figure out stuff like this.

        Im excited for kids that are tech inclined these days, sad that smartphones (having a whole mini computer) set us back rather than making everyone more tech inclined. But anyone that gets into it has so much cool shit to do and learn.

        Wordpress is just block site building, i dropped out of coding im not a fan lol, its fr just copying and pasting one command its less complicated than I made it sound and can do a lot more than geocities creativity wise, all these apps these days are one click, mentioned minecraft because a lot of these easy to use panels like yunohost also have one click apps for that.

        Think of webhosting rnow as downloading different os like android vs iphone, having appstores that let you one click install different types of webapps. Super simplified if he wants to try more free open source site builders, kinda of stuff I wish ppl showed me as a kid. (idk if it was around tho, most of these panels are newish)
