Happy Box: Helpful tools and toys to help with simple tasks.

The real 'Happy Box'

About

This little site contains tools and toys to help with simple tasks. I have named it Happy Box. Anyway, play around, do whatever.

The real Happy Box is a box (approx. size: 58cm x 48cm x 53cm) I used for holding my wild field mice while I would clean their cage. I left somebody to watch them to prevent them from chewing through the box while I was away. I no longer have mice; they all died from various causes. It is kind of reckless to care for wild mice. I wouldn't recommend it.

I got the idea to build this site from when I drew the grinning faces on all four sides. I knew it would be used as the logo, but I didn't know what it was going to be about. It came to me to build a site with my little PHP "toys" that I build to make my life a little easier. I figured, "If it can help me, why not others?" So here it is.

I add to it whenever I need to build something that will save me time or effort. I also have things that are just for fun, like the text colorizer.

Update May 4th, 2021

Server woes. Moved to Google App Engine. Rebuilt how pages are generated. No longer a lightweight CMS. Chill.

Contemplating a mobile-first redesign. This design, while rather simple and definitely no fluff, has aged over the decade and a half it's been around.
