imgur link updates

Posted 5 months, 18 days ago by Buttons

Most pages have now been updated with non-imgur links for their layouts, which means those of us in the UK can now view them.

Profiles that have older codes on them have been left alone, as we need to switch them over to the new layouts anyway. when we'll have time to do that, I don't know; but the main profiles such as the Personifications, & more recent years OCs (Caterpillar, Ringmaster, Wonka, etc.) have been fixed.

If you're not in the UK and you use Imgur for your layouts, this is a reminder that any of us in the UK can't see your images as they blocked our country a few months ago. Please do consider switching away from Imgur if you'd like it to be accessible to everyone. ❤️

Regarding IMGUR changes in the UK

Posted 9 months, 20 days ago by Buttons

For those that aren't aware, Imgur is no longer accessible for those in the UK, and all images won't show for anyone in the UK- which is very, very frustrating, and breaks a lot of the internet. If you've used imgur for your pages and you'd like them to still be accessible to everyone, we'd ask you please consider using a different hosting site- or better yet, host them on toyhouse natively, I imagine?

And on our side, unfortunately we used Imgur to host all page images. On every page. And there's a lot of them.

We're going to work to get them fixed after we've given it a few days to see if it comes back online, but it might take a while. Please standby.~


Big Folder Update + Artfight Updates

Posted 1 year, 1 month ago by Buttons

We can't put out an update notification for this- but heads up that we've updated all of our toyhouse folders with new code, organisation, and little descriptions of each. (ignore that honeycomb hotel doesn't have them, we do not remember their lore)

There's likely to be some more page updates, particularly on lore, as we run up to Artfight too! https://artfight.net/~Otherbuttons

Artfight 2023 approaches...

Posted 3 years, 25 days ago by Buttons

Artfight soon m'dears, which means we're going to be updating a lot of characters and potentially finalising designs this week.
Feel free to comment below with your account; looking forward to finally attacking some of the characters we've been seeing posted.

I'm participating in Art Fight 2023!

Team Vampire

User: Otherbuttons
  • Friendly Fire
  • Revenge
  • Revenge Chains

I attack:

  • Most things, honestly.
  • Incredibly cutesy sweet-based designs.
  • We'll attempt anthro, but no promises

Characters I have:

  • Human
  • Monster
  • Odd Eldritch Beings
  • God of Flesh in a Mascot Suit (hopefully mid-artfight)

Artfight Time!

Posted 4 years, 21 days ago by Buttons

So, recent uptick in characters and refs being submitted to our toyhouse?

Must be Artfight time...

Also known as 'The ADHD deadline of OC References'.

Revenges > Chains > Attacks
(friendly fire is a-okay, chains are only open to mutuals)


We're featuring Fortuna, Psyche, (& the Carousel) this time around!
Both now have full references for their main looks:

But we're also prioritizing the other Personifications characters, because they're our babies:
Richard's new design (left) is done, plus we plan on updating Pers!Rupert's clothes,
Chronos' pre-70s outfit, & some bare-bones concepts for the Casino itself.

We struggled a bit with being too perfectionist last year,
so this year we'll be doing art where we can't be perfectionist (and honestly looks better/less stiff):

Marker Art!
They may not all be bust-shots, but they likely won't be anything too complex.

If people are willing to pay p&p at the end of the month,
we'll happily ship off the original to folk if they want it.

Not all of our characters are up there, but we're working on getting a good portion up before the 1st!

We'll mostly be sketch attacking, potentially with colour, because adhd is awful and attention is hard lmao
