in the blog view, member privacy outweighs individual post privacy. if a private member makes a public post, it will not show up in the public feed. however, if that member switches to public, their public posts will all become publicly viewable (but private posts will remain private).
the blinkies and stamps stuff is literally just because i want an easy way to upload them when i find them. and im the dev so i get to decide mwa ha ha
make sure blinkies are actually blinkie-sized, and stamps are likewise stamp-sized. too much variation in size will make the layout weird. there's not validation because its designed just to make uploading the images not require ftp + manual code as i had been doing before.
do not deploy this way, the packaged flask server is not secure. production instructions will be provided when the project is ready
- you will need to run `.venv\Scripts\activate` from the folder every time you start working on it
- re-building the entire database with `flask --app myriad init-db` (losing all the data inside) will be necessary as development continues. DO NOT STORE ANYTHING IMPORTANT DURING DEVELOPMENT
- start the site with `flask --app myriad run --debug` as usual
