I would be greatly interested in playing as a character if any budding GM's wanted to run a session or two in the New Year'26?

Yes, the 'fancy' header should have little 'x' above and below the letters. That's it. I put it again just below so if it comes up garbage, one should still be able to see that this month's theme is "Too niche for you?"

Yeah, looks funky to me. I see little x's and "This Month's Theme" twice. At least the 3 bullet points give me a hint that it's about niche or little known rpgs, tools, creators, artists. 🙂
p.s. if it's something that induces vertigo I'm glad I can't see it. 😛

Hi Violet,
Matthew (Octavian) cleared this up above.
Can you confirm if it counts the number of donations, or the number of unique donators?
It's the number of support payments. If someone makes 2 support payments it counts as 2 towards the total.
It doesn't look like it includes anything previous to December. As for the graph, it looks like where it "starts" above 0 its purely because x amount of donations had already been made at the point that [user=lolcese][/user] updates it to run for the current year.

Like your sentiment, but I don't think you contributing (not a donation) twice does what you think it does. It's already counting unique contributors, so you were already counted with your original contribution.
This is not the case. The December support drive counts every support payment made in the month of December - whether you've previously supported in the same year or not.
Maybe it was different in the past?

Hi!
It's an ASCII formatter I linked in the header. And yes, depending on browser/language settings, it may just look like 'junk' in there. I'll edit the header a bit...
It seems to work on my laptop, not on my phone. It however makes me dizzy (I have visual vertigo amidst my chronic illness symptoms) and greatly lessens the accessibility for me (my dyslectic friend said the same was true for him), so I honestly hope that people aren't gonna make a habit of using it, as it'll just lead to me not reading those posts anymore. I get that people enjoy things looking fancy, but I do think it lessens accessibility. Sorry to be a downer 😞
It's hopefully just going to be things like a header or other small parts of a post- **IF** it is even used at all.
I know the visual effects were removed from 'standard' HTML (like 'flash') since the early days of HTML folks went nuts with colors, fonts, etc.
Which makes me think: I wonder what an accessibility checker would say about the header? I wonder since many institutions are under an April 2026 deadline to make web pages accessible. (Like the one I work for!)

This went up early! I am still busy with December posts :P I am also not clever enough to understand the header or your fancy formatting is broken, as I just see lots of identical rectangles in between text and where the theme should be? :P

FWIW I am seeing more or less what Dave sees -- in Chrome, Edge and Brave. "This month's theme" twice, once with little x's and once in parens. Followed by Too niche for you?, which I'm guessing is the theme, and then the bullets etc. I don't get anything moving.
