HI i'm cereus! 👋 i'm am an adult member of the object show community & i like to draw for fun!
my passion project is a comic series called "solemn entities" which i've been developing for a couple years now. my webpage is currently on a hiatus as i've been directing my attention towards other things in my life recently, but i do love my OCs dearly and i'm always excited to yap about them if given the opportunity >:)

good morning to horror fans, fat bitches, people with psychosis, they/thems, people who can’t drive, trans women, witches, and single dads. the rest of you... you’re on your own
If you are interested in having your own comic site you may have come across people suggesting rarebit. Rarebit is a comic template you can use to do so.
I do know some HTML and CSS, but even then back when I downloaded rarebit for the first time I was still a bit confused on where to start, so I hope this small guide helps anyone that is interested on starting their own comic site using it.
In this part I’m going to change the logo and navigation buttons on the site.
1.- Download Rarebit from: https://rarebit.neocities.org/ ← You can also read information about it in here and check out other sites that use it.
2.- You will get a zip file with the basic things needed to set up your comic site
3.- You will place these HTML files and folders in your Neocities site dashboard
4.- Changing your logo
If you open the Index right now it will look like this:
I started changing the img files that make up the site to mine for this, starting with the logo, you can find it on the img folder
Select manage, these are the contents of the folder:
characters: stores the images for your characters page
comicnav: the navigation arrows for your site
comics: This is where you place your comic pages, your comic pages have to start with pg and then followed by a number, I will touch on that later.
thumbs: you can place thumbnails for your comic archive, this is optional and you can turn it off, personally I don’t use them but if you want them they are there.
Hildaterry.png: this is a placeholder image for the about page, you can delete it or replace it later on when you build your about page.
logo.png: What I did was open this file and replace it with my own logo, then overwrite, next time you open the index page it will have been replaced.
rarebitlogo_small.png: this is the image used in the credits to give credit to rarebit.
-Once you’ve replaced the logo file for your logo it you will notice the change in the index.
Note. The name of your logo file must have the same exact name of logo.png.
after the change:
Good start isn’t it? You can do this with your nav buttons as well, just replace the files on your comicnav folder.
I went to a glass museum recently and they had a program where they let kids design glass artwork and it brightened my day so much that I had to share some of my favorites:
Kids have such neat ideas and I love that a group of artists were willing to bring them to life.
