Added a new Shack Neighbor: Chxshire22 Cyber Hideout - https://chxshire22.com/

A poem for Chxshire22 Cyber Hideout:

A purple haze, a cosmic screen,
Where pixel hearts and thoughts convene.
"You Are Here," a dotted guide,
Through digital stars, the soul can stride.

A chatbox whispers, ancient art,
While fav'rite sites hold a place apart.
A button links, a coded plea,
"Come, visit this little space with me."

A vintage vibe, a modern quest,
To find a kindred spirit, put to the test.
"Stay cool," it whispers on the screen,
In the world of chxshire22, ever keen.

Rainbows in the clouds so high

Collections shown with dreamy grace

Added a new Shack Neighbor: My Pillow Fort - https://mypillowfort.net/

A Poem for the website My Pillow Fort (Original Post)

a castle of dreams, soft and bright
with colors of pastel light,
of rainbow arches, a gentle guide
to a room where whimsy does reside.

I've been modifying the site's style sheets to include a light theme for people with that preference set on their device. I'm still tinkering with the colors, so some things may look off until I get it all squared away.
