[b]Question:[/b] [i]Do I have to draw people, or can I do something else?[/i]
[quote="Answer"] [size=9]Well, the thread is called 'Draw the Person Above You,' but it's not limited to -just- drawings. Edits, graphics, sig signs, banners, dolls, [url=http://artpad.art.com/artpad/painter/]Artpad[/url] doodles, or anything else you can think of are all welcome ideas, so long as they fall into the realm of the [i]visual arts[/i] and are made specifically for the person above you. [/size][/quote]
[b]Question:[/b] [i]How do I put pictures in my siggy?[/i]
[quote="Answer"][size=9]Upload your picture to a place like [url=http://photobucket.com/]Photobucket[/url] or [url=http://www.imageshack.us/]ImageShack[/url]. Take the URL of the Image and go to My Gaia > Profile > Signature. Then put the URL in IMG tags and you're done.
It'll look something like this:[/size]
[code][img]picture url[/img][/code]
[size=9]If you take the picture URL to [url=http://tinyurl.com/]Tinyurl[/url] first, you can make the link of your picture smaller, to save room in your sig for other things.[/size][/quote]
[b]Question:[/b] [i]What are the limits for a siggy picture again?[/i]
[quote="Answer"] [size=9]As stated in the [url=http://www.gaiaonline.com/info/tos.php?info=rules]rules and guidelines[/url], signatures can't be bigger than [b]500x500 pixels[/b] and must have a total byte-size of less than [b]100,000 bytes[/b]. [/size][/quote]
[b]Question:[/b] [i]How can I make one of those siggies with a bunch of pictures in it?[/i]
[quote="Answer"][size=9]Random sigs are actually simple to make. Just go to [url=http://www.tektek.org/index.php]TekTek.org[/url] and click on "More tektek.org Features." From there, click on "Random (sig) Image" and hit "Register." Once you're all set up, all you have to do is follow the instructions and upload your pictures.
But remember to stick to the pixel and byte-size restrictions for signatures![/size][/quote]
[b]Question:[/b] [i]I feel like people are ignoring me. ;-; Should I leave?[/i]
[quote="Answer"] [size=9]This thread can get pretty fast, with conversations and drawings popping up everywhere. Because of this, some posts can get skipped over. [i]Please[/i] believe me when I say it is -not- on purpose! No one is trying to ignore you. Just try to get into conversations, or simply start drawing. I promise people will notice you sooner or later, you just have to give it a chance. Let us know when you feel ignored, but try not to complain about it.
We want you to feel welcomed. [/size][/quote]
[b]Question:[/b] [i]What is a quote nest?[/i]
[quote="Answer"][size=9]A quote nest is when people quote posts several times over during conversations. On this board, we want to keep quote nest down to four. It's not a -huge- deal if you go over four, but please try to avoid it when you can. We [i]will[/i] put you on the [color=gray]gray list[/color] if you constantly abuse the quote nesting. It makes things easier on the eyes, and I've heard that you can even get in trouble with the mods for excessive quote nesting. Here's and example of a nest:[/size]
[quote][quote][quote][quote]Start[/quote]Good[/quote] Fine[/quote]Limit[/quote]
[size=9]Try to avoid quote nesting, if you can help it.[/size][/quote]
[b]Question:[/b] [i]Can I be a mod for this thread?[/i]
[quote="Answer"][size=9]As of right now, we don't really need any more mods. If we do need more help, we'll be asking the regulars of the thread this one was made after before recruiting from the general public. But stick around! You never know when we might ask for help. We may even PM you personally about it. <3[/size] [/quote]
[b]Question:[/b] [i]Can I donate to this thread?[/i]
[quote="Answer"][size=9]Of course you can! We would love donations. <3 We would put the money towards prizes and gifts after certain events or contests. Because we're poor mo'fos doing freebies, we could really use the help. XD
Send donations to the [url=http://www.gaiaonline.com/gaia/bank.php?username=4368352&mode=create&x=32&y=13]DTPAY_mule[/url]. Thank you![/size][/quote]
[b]Question:[/b] [i]Draw me!!!![/i]
[quote="Answer"] [size=9]Sorry bucko! There's [b]NO[/b] begging on this thread. Asking for art is frowned upon, generally. If you're not going to draw people, don't demand (or expect) that we draw you. You don't have to draw all the time to be able to get art, but we would like some level of participation. Otherwise, the thread would simply die and that would be the end of it.[/size][/quote]
[b]Question:[/b] [i]What’s a gray list?[/i]
[quote="Answer"] [size=9]It's like a warning. If you get on the [color=gray]gray list[/color], you have one chance to redeem yourself. Fail to change your ways, and you will be [b]blacklisted[/b]. That means your name and offense will be displayed on the front page for all to see and you will no longer be allowed to post on the thread. Simple, no?[/size][/quote]
[b]Question:[/b] [i]What is a good size for posting an image?[/i]
[quote="Answer"] [size=9]There's no real limit to the size of your picture, but [b]600x600 pixels[/b] is a fairly safe bet. If you think your image is too big, just post the link without the IMG tags. That way, it won't mess up the thread and you won't have to worry about your picture being too big.[/size][/quote]
[b]Question:[/b] [i]I have a question not answered here. Who should I contact?[/i]
[quote="Answer"] [size=9]Right now, [url=http://www.gaiaonline.com/profile/index.php?view=profile.ShowProfile&item=1682737]Cajanic[/url] and [url=http://www.gaiaonline.com/profile/index.php?view=profile.ShowProfile&item=1611258]Queen Christie[/url] are the only two mods of this thread. Feel free to contact either of them with any questions you may have that haven't been answered here.
You may also post questions in the thread, or PM the DTPAY mule account.[/size][/quote]
