My site uses PHP to produce HTML output—no flat HTML files. There is an image gallery, and the images have tags.
It's here if you actually want to see it: https://bigraccoon.ca/gallery
When you filter on a tag, it adds a parameter to the URL, e.g. "domain[dot]com?tag=2026". That loads the gallery, but only displays images tagged with "2026".
You can filter further on more tags, e.g. "?tag=2026%2CPencil" ("%2C" is a URL-encoded comma), which would show images from 2026 drawn in pencil.

This method of selecting tags allows for invalid combos, like "?tag=2026%2C2025". That selects images that were drawn both in 2026 *and* 2025... which obviously can't exist! The resulting page will tell you that 0 images were found. A human would generally make sense of the available options, and *not* select two different years simultaneously. I could even code the page so that if one year is already selected, you can't select another one. 🧵3/?
