Update 10
Down with the buttons! Most of the website's buttons have been removed! This is mostly because there is no need for the buttons at all, especially for desktop. I designed the website to be efficient without the buttons, so I'm removing most of them in this major update.
Also, I'm redesigning the site again. Sorry not sorry.

KNOWN ISSUES
The Interactive Bullet Hell pages have not been updated. They will be in a future update.
At the moment, the buttons will stay for the update pages.
Added Update 10.
Update 10.1
This is a small update that essentially fixes the wording in some sections, and fixes the Donate link from being bugged.
ALL PAGES
Changed the "About Me" text in the header to "About".
Removed Twitter social link.
Removed Candle social link (for now).
Fixed an issue where the Donate text on the Header was leading to a broken redirect. It will now lead to a new page for donations.
Typing in "tristangaylord.com/donate" will also redirect to the new page.
ABOUT ME PAGE
Changed title of Page from "About Me" to "About Tristan".
PLANNED CHANGES
We will be replacing the image used on the About Me page with a more recent image of Tristan.
BUG FIXES
Fixed an issue where a Commissions page appeared on Mobile.
I am planning on re-opening Commissions again. ETA unknown at this moment, so let's just say SOON(tm).
Added Update 10.1.
Update 10.2
Continuing with the website overhaul with this smaller patch for now.
ABOUT PAGE
Replaced the old image with something new. The previous image was old and out of date, so I wanted to change it to something better in quality.
Reduced the height of the header on the About Page for mobile.
FAQ PAGE
Removed a few questions on the F.A.Q. due to privacy concerns.
BLOG PAGE
Removed a blog post for the sake of professionalism.
Added Update 10.2.
There is a very good chance that future updates will see the Update button removed on the Home Page, and viewing the Update Page on Mobile will be less effective. However, you can still view the update logs here, as they will remain up-to-date for as long as this website exists.
Update 10.3
WORKS PAGE
Added several video strips to showcase the works that I have completed over the past few years.
Updated the previous Interactive Bullet Hell strip to move away from the lower quality images.
Replaced the old Visual Resume with an updated version.
HOME PAGE
Removed the update button for the sake of professionalism.
Updated the text on the HOME Page.
UPDATE PAGE
Fixed an issue where the button for Update 10.2 was incorrectly leading to Update 10.1.
SHOP PAGE
We're transitioning to Fourthwall when it comes to hosting shop content. This is for two reasons: 1. Fourthwall supports creators better than Wix. 2. I really don't want to give Wix more money.
Removed the shop, and any mention of it from the website.
All content has been moved to Fourthwall, and relevant links to the music have been updated.
FOOTER
Removed the Terms of Service page, since there is no need for it anymore with the removal of the shop.
Added Update 10.3.
And with that, this website has been renovated enough to the point where I feel as if it is professional enough for now. Thanks for supporting me through this development, and we'll see how things progress from here.
