i'm having a bit of a dilemma at the moment. i recently organized my art gallery by year, which I still want to do but I also want to organize it further by like finished pieces and sketches. however, idk how to implement this without it making it look crowded T-T. does anyone have any suggestions?

hmm... unless u wanna have a year by year of sketches ... or a CSS filter...? kinda like how i have on my food log where it filters out dishes not made by me vs me (finished pieces vs sketches vs all)

The CSS filter idea is best for static sites. You will also need to implement some javascript and metadata to filter out art pieces by whatever data you use.

For example, inside the container that holds "bold-and-brash.webp" you either use "data-x" attributes on the container, or input[type="hidden] inside the container with the metadata of the art piece. You then use javascript to query select all containers, check their metadata contents and filter accordingly with the CSS property display: none to hide from the browser all the images that got filtered out

Either that or rent a server and learn PHP

@zhongive honestly your food log page is what I was thinking of. although I might just have to decide to sort by year or sketch vs fully colored since i'm already using CSS bookmarks
