hello! i’m Shen, an ancient and mysterious web developer from Planet Earth who wants everything back the way it was...
welcome to my World!
about this site:
Shen’s World is my personal web site. hand-coded by: me. using: HTML, CSS, and a sprinkling of JavaScript. (in a previous life i was really a computer programmer based in England, but that’s another story...)
- this site should work relatively well in any (modern) web browser at any (common) screen resolution (although, to be fair, i haven't spent that much time testing it.)
- pretty much everything here is “work in progress” and i make a lot of
untestedlive edits, so please expect things to beugly, buggy, broken,unfinished and to change (or not to change) at any given moment. - i dont use a pre-built template, and the layout across pages is
bound to be wildly inconsistentintended to vary. - the coding style on this site

is totally and utterly haphazard because i tend to just slap a load of inline code wherever it works and cant be bothered to organise it properlyfavours flexibility and freedom of expression over consistency and reusability. - if you look at any of my code or content for inspiration, keep in mind that i never said any of it was good, or of any interest to anyone except myself.
- i use Neocities to host my web site ad-free. create your own! (see my bookmarks for web design tutorials and resources.)
no ai was used to make this web site. after all, building it myself is the whole point of doing it.
updates!

pets?
apparently the done thing these days is to adopt some cute gif (or .png!) pets from elsewhere on the “indie web”. so, with that in mind, welcome to
