Community Rules

This comm is open to anyone to post codes, layouts, resources, tutorials, and requests for help and content. Of course, we do have some rules, so please read through them before jumping in; thank you!

Treat others the way you'd like to be treated. This is not a drama comm, and we expect you guys to be awesome and stay civil. If a situation gets out of hand, please contact a mod, and leave comments intact so we can accurately handle the situation.

Please tag your posts and check out the tagging guide if you have any questions!

■ Very long posts or posts formatted with your own div styling for organization should be behind a cut to save people's f-lists.

Work safe above the cut, please!

■ If posting codes, guides, etc. absolutely do not post content that you did not make. That's stealing, and it's super uncool, bro! If you are posting expanded/edited codes made by yourself using another user's coding as well, please be sure you have their permission (You do not need direct permission if they allow edits to be re-posted in their blanket rules.)
■ Do not post tutorials/links to tutorials that show people how to steal codes from other users. Again: Stealing. Not cool.
When asking for help with something, please check the help tags (help: coding, help: graphics, help: icons, help: layouts, help: other) first to see if your question has already been posted and answered to avoid duplicates.

We do not allow game ads to be posted on this comm since there are so many communities specifically for that already; if you're pimping a game as an addition to a regular post, that's fine. (OK: You post an RP code and mention in the post, oh hey, also I'm running this game! NOT OK: Posts dedicated to game promo.)

We do allow other types of community promos if they are related to RP (icon comms, other types of resource comms, etc.) Just shoot us a comment in our dropbox beforehand and we'll let you know if it's cool to post!

Re-using old icons

[info]jadewinter
[info]rpresources
I'm not sure this is the right place, but I'll ask anyway. I have some icons on older journals that I'd like to re-use. They are all credited appropriately and would be again of course. The reason I'm posting is because the icon journals I got them from are now deleted and I really don't know if it is considered inappropriate to use icons from deleted journals for newer characters/journals/games. So I guess I'm asking is it appropriate in general? Or if someone has deleted their journal is it better to try and choose a new face or icons? These are extremely rarely iconned faces - the deleted journals were the only places I ever saw them, if that makes a difference to anyone's opinion on this.

kind of a strange request, but would anyone be able to offer insight on the differences between big fandom style games (i.e. what’s found at wanna-rp) vs. original, pb style roleplay (i.e. anything at ~pbads)?

i can’t count the instances of wanting to join a game with a cool, clever concept, only to shy away from applying because i don’t have a full understanding of the mechanics. as someone who’s mostly done massive harry potter games her entirety of rp, i think i’d be lost trying to transition to ic/ooc posts, customs, etc. and since those games are typically all f-locked, i’ve never had much of an opportunity to learn by example.

anyone out there willing to give me a run down?

I am still on the hunt for a mobile (iOS) email program that will let me reply to IJ comments from my email. Pretty much every program that has worked in the past stopped working. I was most recently using Outlook, but now that one doesn’t work, either.

Does anyone know of one that works for commenting directly from email on mobile? Many thanks in advance!

Browser Suggestions


[info]forsythia
[info]rpresources
So, I don't know anywhere else to ask this and I figure here's a decent place since by necessity we all use browsers to do rp stuff on this server.

Something in the newer versions of Firefox does not get along with my GPU and HP doesn't make any newer drivers for this laptop. That means I'm stuck in a precarious situation since I hate Chrome with every fibre of my being and can't stick with the outdated Firefox that's started toasting my processor.

What I need is something that:
* works well with ij
* has developer tools including live css editing and mobile view abilities
* is compatible with LJ Login
* has some form of session saver & manager
* is compatible with either Downthemall or a comparable bulk downloader
* doesn't squish the tabs into tiny little slivers when there are lots of them
* does not force automatic updates
* preferably has a portable version

Anyone have suggestions? I'd prefer something that ticks all the boxes of what I need, but I'll look into anything that has a majority of them.

Does anyone know if you rename journal [info]abc to [info]xyz and keep the connection can you later disconnect the two journals so [info]abc can be purged/used again?

Has anyone else using Outlook to reply to IJ comments from email on a mobile device noticed it having stopped working in the last day or so? Now when I click the post comment button nothing happens :(

Where can you find homogeneous, good quality tinyicons that would actually work for IJ?

So I have looked at several faux celeb comms, and their requirements and the like over the years, and those that aren't faux celeb but allow it, and I still don't really get how it works. I know one of the answers is 'however you want it to work' of course, but I don't know how I want it to work, if I want it to work differently to the comms or do the same or... well, anything.

Things I am particularly wondering about - why do most games have all musician credits but frown on using all the same credits for an actor?

How do you decide which credits to use and not use for actors? Obviously if someone is seeking a particular role that's one thing, but say you're setting up a character independently or trying to work out the other credits?

But really, any help would be great.

Okay, so ever since iPhone updated to 13.2, it has messed replying from email up. I was using VM Boxer and it worked fine up till the update ( It had to have one since iPhone updated). I don't mind the dark mode, it's easier on the eyes, but I can no longer reply from my email. Does anyone know a work around for this? Or even a new email app if it comes down to it. I'm willing to work with anything as long as I can reply from my email again.

Thank you in advance.

I don't have time to do games anymore! That said, I have a collection of "completed-to be completed" games that are sitting around with themes and placeholder text which means they'd just need to be populated with content to go.

If I were to offer these for sale with a rename token (as needed) + the offer to do minor edits on the graphic work is that something anyone would be interested in purchasing? Sort of like a pop-up game. Just curious. They're not doing anything right now but collecting dust.

Who here besides [info]iseethelight host icon makers? I'd like to make a custom for us to discuss how and where we're hosting? Mostly cause awhile ago there was a problem with my host and they made me upgrade to a reseller and it now costs me an arm and a leg.

Hoping someone can help me here: I've been trucking along using BlueMail to reply to comments from within a client on my Android for ages. However, over the last couple of days, it's gone a bit weird on me - it no longer lets me use predictive text, the backspace button has to be hammered a bunch to delete anything and, most annoyingly of all, the Send button no longer works.

Has this happened to anyone else? Does anyone have any alternatives for Android? I tried VM Box earlier, but it won't seem to let me log in, even.

I'm trying to find a community, cause I can not remember its name now. It was a wanted community for specific PBS ppl wanted to see in their game or play against? Although any community for players looking for specific lines or faces would be appreciated! (Besides the new romance one I'm already watching, obv XD)

two strange-ish questions.

1. when using my iphone and trying to make a link the quotation marks aren't functional. it's strange, they're fancier or something, so they break any links i make even if the rest of the code is fine. to get through it i have been going to another entry and doing a copy+paste of functional quotation marks, which is really annoying given i'm on my phone to begin with. anyone know an easier way or actual solution?

2. this is super silly, but. i'm allowed to goof around on my computer at work, totally fine, but there's another employee who sits a good distance behind me. i don't love the bright yellow face of tweak possibly catching her eye every time i'm on ij. the image is just a little much. is there a way to block the image or use a subtler layout for the site or something?

thanks for whatever may/may not come of these questions!

Icon Table Generator


[info]forsythia
[info]rpresources
So, for years I've been using The Icon Table Generator for my comm, but today I discovered that it and the entire rest of the site is down. I tried contacting the creator on LJ, but the journal was last updated in 2015 so I don't imagine anything will come of that other than the shady owners of LJ now having access to my Twitter.

Does anyone have a useful div or table generator for icon communities? Or even a working mirror of this one? Specifically, I need a generator which accepts multiple additions at a time so I don't have to individually add hundreds of icons per batch.

I'm trying to upload a gift set for my bff on her birthday, so please respond ASAP if you have an answer.

Since VM Boxer is no longer being supported, does anyone have a good email app for iPhone that supports replying from email? Since I do tend to reply to things when I'm on my break at work. They did some kind of update and ever since the update it no longer supports replying to IJ from the application. So if anyone can find an email application that supports replying from your email, that'd be awesome. (It seems they're slowly breaking the ones that you already could reply with)
