On YouTube I saw Matt Parker and Adam Savage do videos about how to construct geometric shapes in three dimensions. I tried the same with flat shapes in both 2D and (pixel art) isometric perspective. Since pixel art is a crude representation of reality, I had to fudge a lot to make it fit.

I did some work on my Dutch language running blog, and broke the site. Once I had repaired the damage, I permanently lost additional functionality (links to next and previous posts). You see, the service has changed, and my hack hadn’t kept up with the times. I guess the lesson is, use the default.
