I’ve seen a few conversations lately about commenting on fic and how to do it if you get shy or anxious or don’t know what to say, or what to do if you’ve already kudosed a fic and wish you could kudos it a second time.
1) "Just read this for a second time!” 2) “I loved this!” 2) “<3″ 4) “This was great!” 5) “One of my favorites!” 6) “Extra kudos!” 7) Reply to another comment with “all of this!″ or “+1″ 8) “Will definitely recommend this!” 9) “This was my favorite part: [paste quote]” 10) “Thanks for writing this!”
No one will be angry if you leave a short comment. Your comment doesn’t have to be different or unique. It will still bring a smile to people’s faces!
Another great thing you can do is add a fic to your bookmarks with a “favorites” selection (the little heart). You don’t have to say anything and the author will know you cared enough to let other people know you liked it, because bookmarks often function as reclists to others.
You can also post a link to the fic on tumblr or another social media site! Even if you’re too shy to tell the author how much you liked it, telling other people to read it will bring more readers, and maybe one of them will say just what you couldn’t say.
people are STILL OUT HERE IN 2018 W BLACK TEXT ON DARK PURPLE AND DARK BLUE BACKGROUNDS. WHY.
lads, literally the very first rule of web design is READABILITY.
you have to have contrast between your background and your text.
like…….you pretty much can’t have a dark background if you have black text because it’s super difficult to read; if i have to highlight and puzzle out what your text says because it’s two shades different than your background? i and 95% of people looking at your page are going to hit that back button REAL fast
Filmmakers take note- This five second scene not only fully describes a characters backstory, but the entire reason he acts the way he acts through the film, taking him from a villain to a sympathetic character and justifying a total reversal of his actions in the present. In five seconds, this movie does for the development of a character more than most movies do in two hours. This is why you should be studying Disney and Pixar along with Martin Scorsese and Stanley Kubrick, and ignoring professors and elitist students who deride them as “kids stuff.”
wasn’t there a theory that Anton’s childhood cottage is the cottage Remy learned his craft from eavesdropping inside before travelling to Paris, and the recipe he’s tasting really is his mother’s ratatouille?
Just a quick thing I put together. This blew my fucking MIND when my anatomy teacher pointed it out. My drawings instantly got better. You might know it (good for you, I wish I knew it before too T_T) or you might not and it might help you get better.
