Hey just wanted to let you know(unsure if it may just be a browser thing for me since I use Opera) that your CSS puts your sidebar halfway through the left side of my screen so none of the actual words are visible ^^ /info

lvl 25 ⁌ they/she/idc ⁍ INFP-T
I’m an artist, character collector, and casual world builder that likes music, video games, and drawing animal people too much ⍩
What do?
Here at Toyhouse I collect and create characters and try to develop them within their own little world in my spare time… I'm probably not the best at all that, but I really do enjoy it.I mostly draw and create characters as a hobby, though I sometimes take commissions and make designs to sell occasionally.
I also create HTML templates, most for free - check out the buttons below! [ . . . ]
Wait, you want to hear more?... uh-.. okay
I think a lot and overthink things, probably causing some awkward or anti-social behavior I’m sure, but I try - just let me know if I’m bothering you.
I love my characters and would be delighted if you asked about them :) I might not have answers to some things if the character isn't developed enough, but it can still be helpfull for rounding them out.
Similarlly, if you checked out my playlists and had something to say or songs to recommend, I'd absolutley love to hear :') just drop 'em in the comments below or wherever
I have tons of public playlists that are built around moods and concepts. I listen to a wide variety of generes from Lo-fi to EDM to synthwave/outurn, vaporwave, indie stuff and all sorts of things I've yet to find the niche, sub-genre names for. The playlists labelled by numbers alone contian anything that has piqued my interest at that time (they are labeled YY/MM) gives a lot of variety. Hell, if you could put a finger on any of those subgenres I'd appreciatte it!
What do you use for art?
For a long time I used my two in one laptop and Clip Studio Paint to do art, though I've recently switched to using a Galaxy Tab S7+ and have been trying to get used to Infinite Painter.
Why do you like this stuff?
I love thinking and daydreaming about characters and fantastic situations - I love cyberpunk, sci-fi, fantasy, slice of life, all kinds of stuff. I favor anthro characters because ever since I was a small child I thought they looked the coolest and would prefer them over the other human characters almost entirely for being so visually interesting to me. Almost any sort of story or daydream I made up would feature an animal, anthro, or human that could become anthro; often inspired by media like Pokemon, Digimon, Warriors, Guardians of Ga'Hoole, or American Dragon (hey I was 9). Eventually I would create a more consistant and actual idea of a character that I would later become known as Century and while I still avidly daydream about this character, their story on toyhouse is just one very specific alternate story that doesn't include a ton of nonsense I've daydreamed over the past decade.
Anyways, I guess you can see why I like fursonas and anthro characters so much
To tie this all back to Toyhouse
I love collecting characters to be a part of all the stories I'm working on. I've got several overarching universes with story groups within each (depending on how expansive the setting is)
I love coming up with characters, drawing inspiration from all sorts of areas of life/feelings/and challenges, and trying to bring what has been stuck in my head into the real world. Though, I have poor time management and issues with finding motivation to do art basics, which are big reasons I often buy designs and art from others as well.
Interests
- anthros & art (obviously)!

- DougDougDougDoug VODs?
Trivia
- read The Martian Chronicles, thought it was pretty deep ;^; mankind's budding interest in science fiction in the 40s-60s is so iconic and Bradbury captures the unabashed ferver and wonder people had for the future, how they all looked to the stars and lost themselves. He creates so many moments of bitter sweet beauty with his short stories. Terrible exsistential panics and somehow and underlying sense of beauty and wonder. I can't even with this book like holy shit it was written in the 40s but it's either acurate or retro in the best way possible. My creative writing teacher actually got to see Ray Bradbury at a local college and I'm lowkey crushed that Bradbury lived until 2012 yet I never got to meet him fjksdbvkdkjs
- CallMeKevin and DougDougDougDoug (+ a bunch of random poketubers) are my comfort channels
- my V-Moda headphones are pretty dope... but idk anyone else that uses them?
- I've got a few seasons of Seinfeld that kinda just live inside my xbox and play on infinite repeat when I don't have internet...
Video games I've played and liked; in no particular order (some were played forever ago lol)
- Skyrim, Bioshock (2 is the BEST), Fallout 3 & 4, Pokemon (lots...), BotW, TotK, Prey, Subnautica 1&2, Soma, Assassin's Creed 1-7 (?? lost interest after Origin), RED DEAD REDEMTION 2, Portals (2), Psychonauts 2, holyshit how did I almost forget- MINECRAFT, No Man's Sky, The Witcher 3, Road 96, The Long Dark, Outer Wilds, Spyro Reignited Trilogy, Tinykin, Grounded, Starfield (lots more, but this is getting long)
- Many indie(?) titles like A Short Hike, Donut County, Piku Miku, Death's Door, Stanley Parable, Superliminal, Cluster Truck, Inside, Exo One, HypnoSpace Outlaw, Ori and the Blind Forest
- VR Quest games like Beat Saber (I play on expert! one of my few competitive accomplishments smh), Super Hot, Job / Vacation Simulator, Resident Evil, Accounting+, A Fisherman's Tale, Virtual Virtual Reality Simulator, Pistol Wip, Cosmodread
- dumb games like Power Washer Simulator, I am Bread, Human Fall Flat
- Some games that were lowkey my childhood - (PS2) Sly Cooper, Ratchet and Clank, Spyro 2 Season of Flame (GBA), Zelda and the Minish Caps (GBA), Pokemon Explorers of Time (DS) (I cried), Pokemon Ranger Shadows of Almia (DS), Pokemon Diamond, Soul Silver, and Black, Kid Icuras Uprising (3DS)
- still working up the motivation to play Cyberpunk 2077 after the disaster launch killed my hype. It's one of my favorite aesthetics so I have to play it at some point
- Consoles at the moment: Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch Lite, Oculus Quest 2 & very rarely (light) PC and mobile(android) I need a real gaming PC :( but that's a whole other deal... regardless, I will never not appreciatte all the art and stories I've experienced over the years and the value they've added to my life
BYI:
- I'm not the most socially skilled individual, but I do really appreciate interaction and interest in my characters, art, interests, etc ^^'
- Below is a list of common social, art, and character permission related things incase you're feeling courteous :>

Thank you for letting me know :o
(It sounds like I'm seeing a different version of it, but) I'm also seeing a weird sidebar issue on my page since maybe a month ago on Chrome on desktop, but I opened my TH page in an incognito browser with me logged out and the problem wasn't present (???) It's annoyingly confusing and it happened without me changing anything afaik. Plus the CSS is largely an import from cheeriko so there's some things at play I'm not able to see,, maybe I'll figure out what is doing it and how to fix/ override it across all browsers with some extensive testing - maybe one of the latest site updates broke how something renders ??
But thanks again for letting me know! I'm always wondering if others are seeing what I'm seeing with my code
I messed with it for a while and I'm still not sure exactly what was/is causing it, but I might've changed something that somewhat alleviated the problem (I'm still seeing a massive blank extension of the background when I swipe to the right on mobile - it's not a huge issue for me atm since my screen starts already zoomed in to the correct size/width, but not sure if other devices/browsers tend to do the same) ~ would like to know what you see as well if you happen to have the time :)
Hiya! I recently purchased premium and have been trying to get my head around all the coding. I’ve been doing okay so far but one thing I haven’t been able to find anything about is customising/ editing the top panel where is says “toyhouse Profile Forums Browse Submit”
I see that you have it edited so I thought you might have a bit of insight on how I can change it haha
I actually use a CSS sheet by Cheeriko as my base and that's what is styling it :)
For future reference, most people who are OP at coding and can do full CSS restyling (lol) will include code that inserts their name at the very bottom of the page like mine.
Even though I didn't restyle it myself, I did find these snippets by another user that does what you're taking about :)

I used one of your Blurbs for my profile. It was my first time ever trying anything code wise and your way of organizing it and giving instructions, really made it super easy. Its up currently on my profile! My only question is, how do you change the font colors and style? i tried following the instructions for the color change but that didnt work out for me; probably needs some knowledge i currently dont have xD Huge thanks!!
The code uses bootstrap's predetermined set of colors by default (primary, secondary, warning, success, etc) so if you changed btn-outline-primary to anything that wasn't another one of bootstrap's theme colors it won't work. Right now the text within a button is the button's color by default.
The most straightforward way to change font color would be to insert color: #ffffff into the style="" of the "a" tag that surrounds the intended text and replacing the #fffff with a hex code of your choice :)
example: a href="LINK_HERE" class="btn btn-outline-primary pt-3 pb-3 pl-3 mb-2 text-right w-100" style="border-radius:20px 20px 20px 0px; color:#ffffff"
And if you don't want the next two buttons to automatically be hue-shifted you can remove the filter:hue-rotate(20deg) from them.
And And if you were actually just talking about wanting to change the other/plain text not in the buttons you can just add color:#ffffff" to the tags surrounding those words.e.g. style="white-space:nowrap; color:#ffffff "
To change the font you can put font-family:FONTNAME within the style="" using the font name of any of these web safe fonts
Or if you meant the other kind of styling like italicize or bolding you can wrap your intended text in these new tags - this is a nice visual list of the styling tags bootstrap uses
I'd be happy to help in more detail (especially since I'm not sure how much of this makes any sense), but I don't know /exactly/ what you're wanting so I can't give a copy-paste answer - let me know if you need more help ~
How did you put that little widget on the side of your profile linking to your Spotify profile? Could you possibly post that snippet somewhere? I'd love to do something like that for one of my characters.
I'd be happy to share :)
Do you mean the bit with the spinning record? And how much of it did you want? (Like the whole column with a spot for a page doll and background image? Or just the disk and text?)
I'm traveling atm but might be in front of a computer tonight or tomorrow
