getting there

On Anthera, you can create profiles for every single one of your characters! You can assign posts to them, customize their profile pages, and soon select a featured image to show at the top of the page! anthera.art

You can now connect your Bluesky account to your Anthera account through OAuth! Visit anthera.art/settings?pag... whilst logged in and click the Bluesky button!

theres also one more big feature planned to come out in the next few months called "anthera.me"! this allows you to create your own personal gallery and customize it, and it gives you a subdomain on the "anthera.me" domain, e.g. "tanza.anthera.me" (image is conceptual)

another cool feature would be the "Authors" system, which allows you to add multiple people to one piece of art if multiple people were involved in the creation! at the moment it will only show on the uploaders' profile, but i'm working on making it show on all the galleries of the authors!

one notable feature of this site is the "Characters" feature, which allows you to create a page just for your character - your character then can be assigned to posts, either your own or others' (with your permission) and they have a gallery of their own!

i've been working on a website to share furry art for the past year or so now, and it's finally in the state that i feel like throwing it out there a bit more! anthera.art/home please have a look and maybe repost this if you like the look of it to get more visibility on it! would be appreciated :)

introducing: the anthera 404 page

2 weeks later

character info table what other details would people want?

still very early but here's an early look at the post page ui, going well i think!

anthera update

development going great

When building searching on Anthera, there are two ways we can approach things. We can keep it basic, having each word in the search query referencing a tag, and using special characters to search for more specific things. The alternative is to use special characters for tags as well, and use the-

Another day of web development making no sense We have one page which takes about 20 seconds to load, all the others are instant. No matter what we do, we can't replicate the long load on any systems but a few, nor can we make it happen on any other page but *the one page*.

Heh just found out half the site is non functional on Chrome, good to know

Finally finished up the proper branding, been using some temporary ones for a while now so it's nice to have something a bit more polished
