updates on my projects (vivaldi chrome theme, iminotube, etc)

 i am making this quick post so i can let ppl know about what is the current state of my projects.

i have been very busy nowadays (school, procastination and no motivation), and i made the wrong choice of trying to start working on these projects at the same time, no schedule and i kept almost giving up + i am still a beginner at js (i havent started working with python for apps and other stuff yet.)

so i am taking a break from my projects until i am able to get motivation and freetime to work on them, my projects require alot of time due to their complexity and i cant just work on them all at the same time.

i had to rewrite the vivaldi chrome tabs funcionality 3 times all just to use the spritesheets and not css stuff to make it look like trapezoids like silverfox does it.

1st iteration, i had to use masks and i couldnt use the sprite for the center of the tab, so i scrapped it.

2nd iteration, used combination of mask and backgrounds, but with positions and calculated sizes and transform tricks to make it look like it has negative margin.

as you can see in the 2nd picture, when you have multiple tabs, the tabs look broken and the tabs look wrong in different resolutions, i have tried fixing it but it just didnt work.

3rd iteration, it was successful (i decided to brainstorm and used psuedo elements on 2 tab elements)

but the sprite (not the mask) got misaligned on specific sizes, but i havent fixed it yet.

this goes to show how difficult it is to make projects like this.

and about iminotube, i had to rewrite guide builder for epic panda support but the project isnt really worth making due to v3.

but i have thought of making projects such as a bluesky frontend that looks like google plus, but i wont work on it yet

anyways thats all i have to say about my projects sooo, cya.
