Um, what is happening? It’s already second day and on any computers or Internet providers

If you can’t see pic

Has anyone looked at the potential for CSS grid masonry for an alternate frontend CSS in a few years?

If you have Safari’s developer build or Firefox with the flag I linked above enabled, go check out this photo gallery demo. Especially check out the “wide images are wider” option.

Perhaps it could display the meta info (vote buttons & comment count) on mouseover on desktops but include it as part of the image’s box for touch-only environments.

Administrators, it’s Sammovieproductions. I’ve come to owe you a massive apology. I really didn’t mean for anything bad to happen on this website. I just needed to fix a few things, but I just ended up making things worse. Please forgive and unblock me. I’ll remember the rules in future. Promise.

Last one of these. I have a crush on Twilight (again).

Would be great to see it on the site, yes. There are a couple of tag changes I’d like to review.

Are you interested in having this change pulled?

@Starless
Nice work ^^

Here’s another image, this time of R63 Starless.

Ever thought “Oh dear, I’ve totally misunderstood how to use the xyz tag, and now there are 200 pages of tag changes on my account to look through to fix this mess?”

I’ve made a small change to add a search box to the tag change page of the profile to help with that.

Code available here: https://git.lacunae.de/philomena.git, branch tag-change-search (don’t try this link in a browser, you can only add it as a git remote.)

Well, ok, but while I have no idea what it has to do with the dev changes today, I still think if you want to find images with Lauren Faust on them, you can search the tag ‘Lauren Faust’.

If you want to use that to prove some other point, that’s fine, I guess. Whatever works for you. I just don’t know why you’re framing me as being opposed to whatever it is you’re proposing, or why that’s a perception you want to create.

Like, why would anyone give a shit if I thought the palette of the different tag categories was good or bad? How is presenting that as something I care about even useful for you in trying to advocate for your proposed change?

I don’t have anything to say about it. It’s not my site. I’m just a volunteer here.

Literally here and here.

I thought I saw it brought up more times than that, maybe I’m just remembering too intensely.

Literally what?

@Acid Flask
Good ^^

@Twiny Dust
Awesome

@Starless
It’s better than being bad. Hope things are okay ^^

On this website? tight flank

Also, how necessary is it to stick to a palette of 256 web-safe colors? It’s 2024, not 1996. More importantly, this is a place for images. Those images will use whichever colours they damn well please. I understand that colors should be perceptually distinct, but which part of the rainbow is most squeezed?

Tags like “alternate version” and “derpibooru exclusive” could have their own category (let’s call it origin-adjacent), but still keep the same color as the origin tags. If a different color is necessary, they could get a slightly different shade.

FWIW, -source_url:?* was the way to find absence of sources in the past (and more generally, to find absence of content for other string-type fields)

@The Smiling Pony
Ciaran’s lamentations about running out of distinct web-safe colors notwithstanding, this really means further division of tag categories is warranted.

Also, keep in mind that some characters have multiple mutual-implication-enforced tags, or that people use multiple tags for the same oc (until someone notices and posts about it in the tagging forum), and that “oc” and “oc only” count within oc_tag_count. (oc is automatically added whenever someone tags an oc:-prefixed tag, but may be missing for various reasons.)

@JP
That and so many other tags. Don’t get me started. Nevermind also whether you’d tag “oc only” on a picture where the oc has a figurine of a canon character in the background on a shelf, for example, and that you wouldn’t tag “oc only” if there’s an oc and something else that wouldn’t be character-categorized (eg. Optimus Prime).

Is it a bug or a simple need for search reindexing that there are a lot of tags with namespaces that aren’t searchable as having a namespace?
