Discoverit is no more! But hold your tears, it has been reborn as Repost Repository! I know, I know, what a name. It came to me in a dream–or more accurately, as I was sitting around this afternoon. I mean, it is all just reposts from Reddit anyway–basically my private funny gif and meme gallery.

New name, new theme

Repost Repository (or Repo² for short) has been reskinned to suit its new name as well, in greyscale and sans-serif vs the somewhat formal teal and serif theme before. Fonts used were Oswald and Open Sans–yes, that old stand-by–from Google Fonts. (Check out their new redesigned site!) I also threw in some basic small-screen/mobile considerations: move the side-column to the top, shrink the header, expand widths to 100%, etc etc. And it all plays nicely with the palette-swapping feature I added, which I still find fun to spam.

Next up for Discov-I mean, Repost Repository will be some smart-detection features like recognizing giphy/gfycat/youtube urls as well as imgur ones. Content enhancement stuff. The site doesn’t really need much; its purpose is pretty straightforward. Just read the name, right?
