What do you think?
What do you think should be allowed to be posted here in FC? (other then the obvious Oddworld stuff)
Now mainly I feel it should be only for Oddworld related material, but I am willing to let non-oddworld pics to slide (mainly cause I am guilty of that myself) unless of course the majority that reply say not to. I figured I'd ask everyones opinion first before 'jumping in' and start terrorising peeps with my new mod powers (did I say terrorise? no no I meant 'assisting' yeah thats it...*sheepish grin*). *whistles and Spider and Malice run in, both wearing bouncer suits and sunglasses* My Drakkic friends here will be helping me with my mod duties (oh yes..I intend to have fun with this...*grins*). Spider: Drrraaaggg...can we take these suits off? They itch... Malice: yeah...and these sunglasses are giving me a headache... *bangs her head on the wall* why me? |
*Ponders* Well, I think that non-Oddworld pics should be allowed *Is also guilty* because personally, I like looking at non-Oddworld art by our members. Things like "Wars/battles" I believe are not appropriate for a fan forum. There's my 2 cents.
Nice uniform Spide.... *runs* |
I know I dont post pics here but I dont see why not. I think you should let people post non-ow pics here it would be cool.

Hm, yes, I'd agree with those sentiments. I think with the non-Odd pictures you have to first decide what counts as Odd and what doesn't - after all, people could just draw things and say "Oh, it's a new species". I think Non-Oddly is okay so long as it doesn't take over - after all, most of us artists have posted things not pertaining to Oddworld, but not so they take over - after all, they ARE Oddforums... *shrugs*
And the "battles" thing is just getting boring... Aura: Ooh, sungalsses... *giggles* Ooh, suit you, sir, Ooh! :) |
I thought I'd add an opinion of what I think (even though I don't visit here much and I'll trust Dragadon's judgement).
The forum was basically designed for Oddworld content. But IMO the guidelines can allow some exceptions. I see these as being: Images: for example a topic like Dragadon's Pics or Teal's Pics may contain both Oddworld and non-Oddworld drawings. IMO this is OK. Another expection would be a non-Oddworld creature which plays part of someone's Oddworld fic (i.e. Dragadon's dragon characters that live on Oddworld in her fan fics). What I wouldn't like to see is:
Fanfics: One of the things I noticed a while back was stuff that was non-Oddworld. This mainly seemed to be the "battle" type topics which I get the impression people are getting bored with. Fics should at least be of an Oddworld or sci-fi/fantasy nature. I just thought I'd add what an Administrator thinks on this kind of thing. Abe Babe... |
Sorry to disagree with you all, but I think Off topic pics should be put in the Off topic section. Sorry to disagree with you all but that's what I think. :)

*james walks into room*
james:heres a relly good idea:WHY DON'T WE JUST USE IT WHAT ITS YOUSED FOR FAN FIC!y tink that would be to hard to understand i mean...*goes of yelling about how dumb some people are* i'm relly sory bout this...1 sec...*runs off to get james* |
Hmm...that's one thing I've been thinking about lately, drag. My dilemma is that now that I have a community (that works), I could scan in some of my nicer pics and share them with all you (*notices everyone running away*). But as I can't draw Oddworld creatures well, (ok, I can draw munch well from ONE ANGLE...) I decided I wouldn't junk up bandwidth with entirely non-OW pic topics. But I think what most people do (mostly OW & possible OW creatures, with non-OW creatures being an exception) is a good way to do it. My opinion is if people put their pics in OT they could get lost, as people go to FC to see fan pics/fics.
And fight topics are SOOO 3 months ago... |
Aye FF. As busy as OT is, pic topics would get buried too quickly. And a lot of us artists don't post pics everyday. For instance...I am in a bit of a dry spell right now...ugh. Same goes for fics...Double ugh. *hates writer/artist blocks*

(Any pointers on easy ways to draw hands would be welcome, too...) |
Yo fuzz, where did you create your community?
 |
Same place as a lot of us artists did... Micro$oft PictureIt. You can get one from here:
http://communities.msn.co.uk/ (That one's the British mirror, I think there's others for other countries...) |
As many of you would already know, you can get boards fromEzBoarD
