this is the newgrounds webring, a place for peeps to share their personal websites, blogs, or art sites and do collabs

for the uninitiated a webring is a series of websites that link to each other. they were extremely popular back in the 90s and early 2000s and continue to be on the indie-web today. the goal here is to create a webring for newgrounds creators(programmers, artists, anything really.) so we can link to and help each other grow and maybe encourage more people to make their own websites

the goal of this first collab is to make a button for your site (read below) and a page to link to the rest of the ring. then i will compile everyone's sites into a video showing off our websites.

the rules are simple:

so what is a button?
a button is a small(88x31px) image used to link to your site, like a tiny banner. you probably saw them before on people's sites. here is what mine looks like for example:

you can make them in any program you prefer but if you want something simple goblin-heart made a button maker you can use.

here are also some nice resources:
W3schools is great for anything programming related
freecodecamp has a free courses for html, css, and java script. they are pretty short fun.
neocities is a spiritual successor to geocities. it let's you host sites under 1Gig for free(or 50Gigs if you get supporter)
melon's Gallery maker is a tool for making image galleries. it makes making a gallery for your art a 1 click thing(ignore the activation code, it is just there for fun lol). melon also made a lot of neat things you might have seen before on the web so check him out.

feel free to ask if you got any questions. have fun
