About the site

I've been interested in coding ever since I was 12 and I started learning HTML back then.Most of my cousins and other teens I was around were way older than me so I experienced the MySpace customization days and the old web through them, so I always wanted to make a website for myself and decorate it however I want to.

I'm bad at naming things so I honestly had no idea what the name of the site should be T_T. I ultimately decided on kuroiro after my favorite sanrio character,kuromi, + my name.Kuro(黒) also means "Black" in Japanese and Iro(色) means color, so the name of the site would also translate to "the color black".

I ultimately made this site so I can escape social media.I hate hate hate generative AI and slop content.I used to waste my time on TikTok but making this site + cultivating my interests and searching on my own for cool stuff has helped me take things slow.

Credits

Mythltoc: I just really love the site's aesthetic and kept coming back for inspiration.

W3Schools: Used their Tryit Editor A LOT.

All backgrounds except this one are made by me. I found this background on Pixel Moondust's Geocities Background Collection and made a texture checker with pycheung's Seamless Texture Checker tool.

The site button was made on Sadgrl's 88x31 Button Maker and the image used was made by me.
