@fluffynap in regards to your chara to tab dilehma, it's still kind of a pain, but adding characters to images and is probably a liiiittle easier than reuploading

(EX if you have the characters"Bob" and "Bob Naruto AU", make a tab on "Bob" called "naruto au". The go into your character "Bob Naruto AU", gallery, and open up each image. Where it says add character, choose your character tab "naruto au" and add it to the image. Then when they're all added, just delete "Bob Naruto AU" the character. Does that make sense? x.x

The fact that y'all aren't paid makes me remarkably sad. How can we help fix that? I understand not wanting to make this site pay to use, but you do so much amazing work, and I (and many, many other users like me) would be more than happy to pitch in more to see you all get paychecks from this amazing site.
Maybe you could add donations in addition to premium? I wouldn't be able to donate every month, but the months that I could I happily would!

Fvhn you can always use spoilers (both the built in one, and coded spoiler boxes if you want to give it like... special names?) if you want to tidy up character profiles in the mean time.

Yeah, having a lot of tabs makes it a pain to scroll through when linking characters or adding them to pics too.

Second to what destructopop said, I feel like a kickstarter or ko-fi or something would be really cool! And the "prizes" or whatever could just be simple stuff, like "donate x and get this cool symbol next to your name instead of a star" or something. idk, I'd support it. I love this site and all the people who put so much work into it <3

@featherweather aah I know I figured out a little late that the spoiler tab does not look good with my layout at all :/ that was my plan until I tried it, and I have these tiny little bio boxes and they just don't work with the spoiler thing cuz it's so cramped. Thank you so much for the suggestion though!

Fvhn

whoops second tag there was supposed to be _featherweather

_featherweather

Lolol no worries Fvhn

But yeah dependinf on how you want your page to look, spoiler boxes can ruin the flow. What I do currently as I revamp my character pages is put all additional info offsite (it's a mix of trello, Google docs, Google slides and tumblr because I'm inconsistent rip) and then put a link on their profile

Fvhn Unfortunately I can't give you a ballpark that would be anywhere in the realm of 'accurate'. It might be next week, it might be in a few months, it all depends on how the schedules for our coders works out.

(I promise to prod the coders with a stick though!!)


destructopop Thank you for the concern but us being unpaid for TH is not a problem that needs to be fixed! We support ourselves through our jobs and pour what free time we have into this project.

I won't go into the specifics of our reasoning but lets just say that I don't believe any of us will change our minds on this point. We created TH with the intention of making a site that would make the lives of the adoptable community easier and maintaining no paywalls is part of that. Rest assured that current premium membership generates enough to keep the site running. : D

destructopop

Wow, colour me impressed. I certainly respect what y'all are doing, and if you insist that accepting donations won't be necessary, then I'll just continue to enjoy your amazing work!

_featherweather

not sure if possible, but having options for the color of the post editor (i.e. darker version with lighter text or "night time" version) would be great, especially for those of us who use the darker color schemes. 

minsu

_featherweather It would involve tinkering with the editor which isn't impossible, just kind of annoying. I'll stick it on the list of QoL changes & hopefully we can come up with something sooner or later. Sorry for the inconvenience in the mean time!

_featherweather

minsu, gotcha thanks.

A small suggestion, but do you think it'd be possible to credit different artists for character tabs? Example: My character I designed has another form that's a CS. The original/main profile is credited to me as creator. But if I wanna make a new tab for them and their other CS forms, I can re-credit those to the CS creator.

It's kind of the reason I'm still uploading my main character's CS forms as their own characters cause I'd like to credit the artists who own the CS.

this already works, actually, it's just tucked away! if you go to the ownership page on the sidebar of the tab, you should be able to credit other people as creators/designers. it's a weird extra step and it could probably be made a bit more obvious, though.

cilphy

Nonstop oh! i was trying to find it but i assumed it would change the whole character's creator. ok nvm ty!! but yeah it would've been nice if it was more obvious _(:3/ i didnt see much people change creators when they uploaded their ocs in other cs forms
