=== Appearance === * Clothing: ** What kind? E.g. "shirt", "pants", "shoes", "dress", "armor" *** "shirt" means any cloth worn over the chest area with short sleeves and no option to open it *** "sweatshirt" is the same with long sleeves *** "top" is the same for no sleeves/bare shoulders *** "jacket" is short or long sleeves, but can be opened/closed via zipper or buttons *** "vest" is the same for no sleeves/bare shoulders *** "pants" means any cloth worn over the individual legs, covering most of them *** "shorts" are pants that cover only half the legs, don't use the "pants" tag for them *** Beware: The differences between "dress", "robe" and "toga" are currently very muddy; dresses are for ladies, robes are for mages? DON'T MENTION IEKA! *** If nothing is worn, we have "nude", "topless" and "bottomless"; only use the latter two if "nude" doesn't apply ** What color? To avoid 11 tags for each kind of clothing, the colored tags are simplified to the following 5 (in the example with black only): *** "black_headwear", "black_chestwear", "black_handwear", "black_legwear", "black_footwear" *** color of sleeves that are part of chestwear count towards chestwear color, not handwear color *** sock color counts towards legwear color *** apron color is currently completely ignored *** Exception: "robe" and "dress" have their own color tags (this should be corrected at some point) *** Exception: "cape" has its own color tags as well, but this should stay so * Complexion: ** fur and scales can have any booru color, e.g. "black_fur", "black_scales" ** same for feathers, although there is also a separate "feather" tag that should be used in these cases ** we DO NOT use black, brown, yellow or red for skin colors; the acceptable skin colors for humans and human-skin-colored folk are, in order from brightest to darkest: *** "pale_skin", "bright_skin", "toned_skin", "dark_skin" *** "yellow_skin" and "red_skin" are only acceptable if the characters in question have a seriously strong coloring in that direction, like The Simpsons. "white_skin" only like if the skin was not colored on white paper but everything else was ** chitin is not skin and chitin colors are currently ignored ** if the character is painted (like redfangs or ulvama), use tags like "red_paint" for example * Expression: ** open eyes and closed mouth with tongue contained is considered the norm, don't tag that ** "closed_eyes", "wink" (at least one eye closed and one eye open), "open_mouth" and "tongue_out" are okay ** neutral expression is untagged, but there is "smile" and "frown" ** other examples: "blush", "sweat_drop", "vein" * Hair: ** "medium_hair" is between ears and shoulders long, longer is "long_hair" and shorter is "short_hair" ** hair can have any booru color as well, except that there is no "yellow_hair", only "blonde_hair" ** haircuts can be tagged, e.g. "ponytail", "mohawk", "dreadlocks", "braids", "twin_tails" * Eyes: ** always use plural ** come in all booru colors; one of the color is enough, e.g. Teriarch is usually tagged with "blue_eyes" and "purple_eyes" ** when eyes are just dots (in a colored image), color of the dots (often black) qualifies as eye color ** direction of looking: "looking_at_viewer", "looking_down", "looking_up", "looking_back" (i.e. over the shoulder or something) ** "no_pupils" when pupils (and maybe iris) are missing; often the case with pictures of Pirate * Boobies: don't get tagged, especially not their size * Sex and gender: e.g. "male", "female", "sexless" (like Antinium) * Other body parts that are not human ** e.g.: "beak", "wing", "tail", "sharp_teeth", "sharp_nails", "long_ears", "tentacle" ** centaurs don't get their horse body tagged though * number of people ** e.g.: "solo", "duo", "trio" ** "group" is used for 3 people or more ** named animals may count as people for these tags *** e.g. Apista and Laken's animals are usually counted *** Tyrion's horse is not * Cropping: ** full body is not tagged and considered the default ** e.g.: "upper_body", "lower_body", "head_only", "disembodied_hand" ** might need some rework and more tags like e.g. "bust" ** absence of clothing may be interpreted, e.g. a "upper_body" without any clothing can be tagged as "nude" instead of "topless" ** the reverse does not hold: a "upper_body", regardless of clothing, must never be tagged with "bottomless" ** although please don't tag "head_only" with "nude" when they don't wear a hat * Posture, e.g.: "standing", "sitting", "kneeling", "crouching" * Perspective ** e.g.: "front_view", "back_view", "side_view", "bird_view" ** might need some overworking for more perspectives
