EDIT: found an alternative for now! <3 [link]

EDIT2: Found another! [link] I'll just keep adding stuff like this here as I find it I guess lol

Trying to get over myself, I thought if I'm too much of a coward to post my own stuff, I can make edits and post those? So keeping with the theming of retro stuff I thought I'd try to make one of those blingee things

But when I googled it, people said the site was dead? Despite the site being the first thing to pop up??

There's even art competitions? There's a Wired post (https://www.wired.com/2015/08/rip-blingee/) saying it's shutting down that was posted in 2015, but someone won a contest on-

...June 4th of this year?? Wait. Today's the 3rd. Unless the site is hosted overseas I guess?

WHAT IS GOING ON LOL?

I tried to make an account so I could make a sparkly gif thing, but it keeps redirecting me to the login page when I go to the signup page, and it keeps saying my account doesn't exist (because it keeps trying to "log me in" instead of making the account)

LMAO??? So weird xD?????

I did (mentioned it at the end of the blog before I started adding references for other stuff), but it kept redirecting me to login instead of making an account Px
I guess not being able to make an account really would make a site pretty dead 0.o
