Introducing... Nitrocosm.com Version 7!
Well, it's been almost 10 years since the last time I did a rebuild of this site. Back in 2017, I rebuilt the back end of the site but mostly recycled the same layout from the previous version, so it was hard to tell anything had changed at the time. That was technically both version 5 and 6 of the system.
The new version of the site has launched today and I'm glad to announce some new features:
- All of the artwork on the site has been upgraded to show a higher resolution. No more tiny thumbnails, either. Things will be far less blurry if you zoom in with your browser.
- Vector graphics! The Nitrocosm Logo is an SVG, so it will scale nicely. All of the icons on the site are also SVG. Fun stuff.
- The MIDI music I have on here is now fully playable in the browser! No more downloading them and playing them through a software synth (or hardware synth, if you have one). The site will play them just like it plays the actual audio music on here.
- The video section now plays videos from my YouTube channel, instead of crappy low resolution versions hosted here. I plan on adding a lot more videos from my YouTube channel in the near future.
External links can all be found at links.nitrocosm.com. I figured it was best to have one centralized place where all of my other stuff can be found so it doesn't clutter up the header here.
Additionally, the podcasts have been removed from the site. This is for reasons I prefer not to discuss, but I figured it was worth noting here.
The system has been completely reworked to be better organized and easier to maintain. A lot has been done on the back end of things to make it easier for me to update.
These changes have been a long time coming.
