just let us write up the guidelines for the forum first
Is this open to suggestions?
As previously stated:
- Number of posts per page defined
- 20
- Number of pics per post defined
- 5
- Maximum image size defined
- 640 x 480
- Maximum file size - 25 k?
- Accepted file types - .png, .gif, .jpg, .jpeg
And perhaps some info for newbies on how to post pics without the infamous [x] appearing.
**Heck while we're at it, you might consider making the Weird/Sexy Screencaps stickies since they're so popular.
That way people need only make some descriptive/specific titles as topics for image/screencap requests etc.
**I disagree with that, for two reasons:
1. While both are popular, they may die down some.
2. There are waaaayyyaaayayayayayayayay (the overuse of letters emphasizes the point) too many diverse areas to be covered if they were to get their own forum. I think that Wierd screencaps and Sexy screencaps should be locked (but not deleted), and new threads be created, like this:
Ecchi Weird screencaps
*for stuff like Futari Ecchi and perhaps Green Green or Hanayuko Maid Tai (and yes, I probably spelled that wrong)
example*
Fake Subtitles Weird screencaps
*Things like propyro's pic from Hellsing with the caption "This will fuck up my afterparty with Alucard", or the "You're resistance only makes my penis harder" (I couldn't find an example, so think real hard and you should know what I mean)*
Out of Context Weird screencaps
*Taking akward lines and using them for a misinterpretation of the actual events
example*
General Weird screencaps
*Anything that is just that, weird. Stuff like weird faces or actions, perhaps like stuff from Excel Saga (not episode 26) or Vash's faces from Trigun
example*
Sexy screencaps
*Caps from non-hentai romantic scenes with some sexual conotation*
Sexy fan art
*Not really screencaps but sexy nonetheless*
Romantic screencaps
*Romantic scenes with no sexual conotation. The kind that make you go "Awww, young love, etc.*
Romantic fan art
*Non-hentai romantic scenes of heterosexual pairings from the same or different anime.*
Yaoi
*Non-hentai yaoi fan art (I've never seen this in an actual anime besides Excel Saga, which doesn't count, but if it's in there throw it in too)*
Yuri
*Non-hentai yuri fan art (I've never seen this in an actual anime besides Excel Saga, which doesn't count, but if it's in there throw it in too)*
And that's all I can think of right now. Also, we could have genre specific threads, maybe a manga scans thread (one page per volume per person ONLY, no posting whole volumes), and perhaps commentary threads on the more popular topics in order to keep the pictures seperate from the blabber.
Oh, and the bold means I agree with it, or I added the numbers I think we should use. As far as forcing file types, you can always use something similar to Reaconverter Pro to convert your images to prevent or minimise color loss. Perhaps we could include a guide for that as well, of course as a sticky. The file size is something I just threw out there, and may be too small or too large, I have no idea. I've been off 56k for too long now, and I've become accustomed to having fast speeds.
One more thing, no quoting pictures, period. We already saw them. If you have questions or comments go to the commentary threads (assuming they exist). I also included a few example pictures, but I just got sick of looking and said "fuck it".
Whew, man I hope he's accepting suggestions, that took a little bit of thought.
