That’s a thing I would like to do but it’s a lot of effort. I’ve still barely done half of the dictionary entries as is.

@Keith Mowz  
I don’t even know what the F# keys are for, let alone how to do any of that,
 
What about a master source link in the details of an artist’s tag? that leads to their Tumblr/DA/other account? since sources in images can have issues, Namely having the source be the URL, this way no matter what you can find the artist’s main hub of activity,

@Thanotos Omega  
If you’re feeling motivated, you could always create something akin to what the MSPA community did with the fan adventures mirroring site, but considering effort to response, it doesn’t seem worth it. Most people just keep using photobucket and such.
 
As many crappy things as there are about Tumblr, it still works better for an ask blog than, say, making a forum thread here and trying to run it like some sort of weird fan adventure ask blog hybrid thing.

@The Smiling Pony  
I see, Very well then i understand, thank you for taking the time to respond,

@Thanotos Omega  
We entertained the idea at one point, but it’s too big of a thing for what the site currently is. It would basically be an entirely different thing, and we don’t have the manpower to either build or moderate it.
 
We do still want to improve user pages to be less “dry”, though.

@dt  
5351 posts and 16 topics seems a bit much for a dummy account,
 
But in any case i maintain that this while being a departure from normal site policy could attract more artists, which i am fairly certain is a good thing,
 
Additionally, what about having an artists tag show up on their profile page if they choose to?

@Thanotos Omega  
Hi Vargus.

What about adding a Blogging section? So the site can actively host Ask-blogs? it could require a test panel so the mods could ensure only artists are using it, It would require the ability to block users or Anons though,

A compromise for the typo when tagging idea; show the number of pics associated with the tag on the Tags box, even before the upload. So when you’re tagging and see artist:bakasan91(0) or artist:soyeeb(0) then you know something’s wrong. Maybe even make it red instead of green or something.

@TexasUberAlles  
I dunno about “must”, seems a bit unfeasible, but it’s an idea worth encouraging.

@dt  
Shut it. You talk as if you know shit about how the site works. In fact, I’ll just quote @TheLoneLampman here:  

@TexasUberAlles
 
lol Like we’d ever enforce that.

Could there be a rule change to require that anything with the edit or [artist]:edit tags must include a link to the original image? It’s not really feasible to tagdive all 78,000+ images in the twilight sparkle tag to look for one in particular, for example, and reverse image searching doesn’t always work.

@barbeque  
Danke. I figured it’d be a way for people to see what’s effectively been done so they won’t have to ask the same thing over again.

@Solitude @SunnySide  
I addded something for now. The things listed as Done isn’t everything by a long shot - I’m pretty sure I forgot a bunch lot of things, and that are just the user-visible changes.

@Mad Black  
I think everyone except the people who DO this is in favor of the suggestion.  
However, That doesn’t help against people who use proxies or tor.

How about blocking the possibility of writing as Background Pony after frequently and often misusing the option, (even after an ban)?

@Solitude  
I also wouldn’t mind something like a “Done” section or something that shows what’s “In Progress”, But I feel it’ll just be added work instead of working on the things that need to be finished.

I remember when they added that colored box that would change depending on the amount of up/downvotes and there were some that went on downvoting sprees just to change it’s color.
 
Slightly more on topic, and just a thought, mind you, but mayhap add a “done” section to the first post so we can see what’s been finished?

Stop talking to Vargus. Stop shitting up this thread. Christ.

@Vargus  
Not a fan of the Beatles?  
But in this case I mean: »Don’t keep harping on about it!«

@Vargus  
Please, can’t you take a broad hint if it is given to you constantly? This has been explained to you over and over and over again. Just let it be.
 
And stop trying to disguise yourself with Background Pony aliases, this isn’t working. Like it had been shown to you like three times in this thread alone.

@OrionFOTL  
Customizable. Like a filter, but categorize things instead of spoilering/hiding them.
 
For example, I would have a “shipping” category, for ships that I like, and one for “scenery”, with tags of the artist whom I know do mostly scenery.

@Grieffon  
What would these categories be?

What about an option to categorize watched tags, and display each category separately on the watch page, but limit to 3 or 5 categories each users?
