Why is the site called V1V1SECT1ON?

I learned the word from the song Honey I'm Home by GHOST when I first listened to the song in December of 2020. Since then, it's always been one of my favorite songs, I've never gotten sick of it. I think its also a really cool word and really raw concept. Like dissecting someone and exposing all their innards while they're still alive is just so poetic to me, metaphorical or not. I replaced all the i's with 1's because I like the number 1 (it's my second favorite number) and I thought VIVI2ECTION would look stupid (2 is my first favorite number). It's in all caps because I wanna.

Why did you make V1V1SECT1ON?

Like about 90% of people on this site, I was sick of the turn that most social media was taking. I don't remember where I heard about Neocities, but I remember was originally inspired by Sunny's site DOKODEMO in 2023.

How did you learn HTML?

A LOT of guesswork and trial and error. W3schools and Stack Overflow saved my life time and time again. Though, I would say I'm still learning HTML. I have an understanding of a lot of the basics, but that's about it. ^^_^^"

Why is everything orange and green?

Because it's awesome. I was a big fan of orange and green (separately) when I was like 13, and even now my favorite color is green. In this instance, I chose to use orange specifically alongside green and black because orange and green are Davepetasprite^2's colors and Davepetasprite^2 is soooo cool to me. I bet it definitely isn't obvious from looking at the character all over my site.

Wait, who IS the character all over your site?!

In essence, that's me! To avoid confusion I may refer to the design as my sona Viv, but Viv is much more than a sona to me. The design is a very close depiction my ideal version of myself- or how I look when I picture myself in my head, being a four-eyed void creature with cat-like features and black feathered wings. I gave them a scarf and shades here because I thought it tied the design together better, and because I just like Davepetasprite^2 and they're just like me fr or whatever the kids say.

So are you a furry then?

No, I'm just some guy who happens to not be a human. I tend to make non-human characters (especially feline-adjacent) because I find myself relating to them more than I do to any of my human characters. I have nothing against furries, I think they're cool! I am just not one myself.

Was all the art made by you?

With the exception of anything I give credit and link to someone else for making, yes!

Then why does it look different from a lot of the art on your art page?

I really like similar art styles to the one I emulate on most of my site assets, so I studied and practiced drawing in that style a lot and now I just have this art style in addition to my normal art style. I prefer drawing in my normal art style because it's easier for me to draw more expressively in that style, but this one is like a bonus!
