The creator tags have migrated. All "prompter" and "artist" tags have been migrated to "creator". Please check your watched tags, as they might have disappeared from your watch lists due to the change.

Not really. It would still dump pics with errors or lacking in general quality onto the site. With AI, you take the factor time nearly out of the equation. Normally an artist can maybe publish one full pic (colored, shaded, the whole 9 yards) once a week (depending on time they have to work on it). I can get a pic up to snuff in a few hours. Professionals, people with art skills and a decent setup, probably even faster. So art limited itself in the past, by taking time. Quality = Time, but not with AI.
I say for AI this limit should be Quality. I don’t mean is it good artistic, but it is free of errors, are the details clear and so on. Stuff you can measure, since “art” is subjective. Yes, you can’t force people to stick to these standards, but you can say: “If that is what you want to publish, do it somewhere else.” There is a reason why most other sites have strict rules and upload limits.

MLP is all about characters. People care about them.
That’s just a pony transforming into a timberwolf. This concept was done many times. Would get more upvotes if it had some story, not just a transformation sequence.
Not bad, but not super interesting either. It’s just a fight and not a very dynamic looking one.
This is notable mostly for its technical merit.
That’s a reasonably good OC design. It doesn’t show any character traits though. Not to mention people care about ponies more than they do about dragons.
Good idea, execution could be better. Square books, text artifacts… I still upvoted it though.
Should I go on?

If Philomena had a feature for image sets, it would partially solve this problem (as well as the problem of regular artists posting one image with multiple different variations).

BUG REPORT:
When the upload form pre-fills some tags, for example username from Twitter, it still prefills it as prompter: instead of the new creator:. Also, the tag prompter needed should change to creator needed or creator name needed.

I have been trying to keep up with and honor these requests for fixes since I became an assistant here (and sometimes I look out for tags needing fixing on my own), but I have forgotten to update the people here. Sorry. I’m going to try to reply to requests from now on.
One thing to keep in mind is that I cannot (yet) merge/alias tags, but I can add implications and change their type (e.g. character, species, etc)

All of those tags that exist have tack implications now.
I had to manually look up each of them and add the implication, so next time it would be helpful for me (and other staff) if you linked each tag you want to have implications.

on grass and on ground looks like on side and on back but somewhy first two are not lying down only… and on derpi the same…
On grass simply means that character is located on grass, but it doesn’t say whether the character is prone, standing, sitting, walking, etc.

Destiny (g5) should be marked as character tag.
On Derpi, leaves is separate from leaf and IMO it makes sense. One leaf as an item is different from, let’s say, falling autumn leaves.
beanie (main tag) = beanie hat

Tagging Discussion » Schrodinger's/Ambiguous Characters » Topic Opener


I asked if the character in the background of the last part of this was an older Spyro the Dragon so I could add the tag if appropriate.
Prompter replied that with AI even the prompter can’t be sure of such things, but that they preferred to think it was a different Dragon. I responded by tagging it “Schrodinger’s Character” and “Schrodinger’s Spyro”. Are either or both of these good tags to have? Should the first one be an alias of or to an “ambiguous character” tag which is probably easier to remember and definitely easier to spell, but not nearly as evocative.

Default search

If you do not specify a field to search over, the search engine will search for posts with a body that is similar to the query's word stems. For example, posts containing the words winged humanization, wings, and spread wings would all be found by a search for wing, but sewing would not be.
