You know, since the days I was on staff, I've always wanted to have an anime collab with a good number of people on the forums. I kinda wished that to happen with the staff but it would've been impossible what with only a very tiny section of the staff back then being into anime. And doing it with people from the A&M section back then was kinda ~not fun~ since the section was almost dead with like 2-3 people posting in there.

But now that we actually have the strength and active members, I'd like to do it here. It'll go like this.

1) You pick one character from your favorite anime.
2) You post a stock/render (High quality only, please) of the character here. I'll see if I like the picture enough and am able to work with it. If not, I'll look for another pics of the same character and come up with a tag.
3) Once I'm done with all the tags, someone who is good at CSS can make the CSS signature layout (I'll do it if no one does... :b)
4) We can all look sexy and muk and show off as a group

I don't exactly have the time to whip something new up right now but you can take a look at some of my previous works here and here if you wish to see whether or not I am able to come up with stuff that'd satisfy your artistic needs. :b I think it'll be fun and serve as a good motivator for me as well. Will help me get back in the swing of all that is graphic design, y'know? :p

Note that this is just the initial thread for gathering all the characters and stuff, really. I don't think I can do it in the next week or the one after that but I'm making the thread in order to get the idea out there, you know? And also to gather some ideas and have a little bit of discussion on the same, if you will.

This is a really great idea! I'd love to do this.

I'm just going to reserve my post here b/c I'm selfishgood at CSS =3=

Looks like you guys like my theme <3

Template

Edit: There was a margin error that would cut off the glow for some signatures, so I fixed the ones in the post and updated the script.

Sounds like a one way trip of fun. Just one quick question, does it necessarily be an anime character? Is a Visual Novel/Manga/Light Novel character acceptable? Just asking :3

For now I will tag along with Kenshin Himura from Rurouni Kenshin, you can use this render.

I suck at CSS, CSI, or whatever it's called :(

Ah, it definitely won't be restricted to anime characters. Go cray-cray. You can choose sexy sirens like the teacher from Unbalance X Unbalance, for instance, even though it doesn't have an anime yet and is actually a manhwa. :p Whatever you'd like to have as long as the art style is anime-ish, y'know? :D

And nice to see you help out with the CSS, gurl.

Question time - What kind of resolution would you guys like for the tag to have? I personally go with 500x170 or anything that's below 500x200 but we can settle on something different if that is where you guys have your preferences inclined towards.

Great, I will stick with Kenshin anyway! :) Oh, and I prefer 500x130, but don't worry about that, I can handle big things.

The render looks pretty damn good. :D And yeah, like I said, the dimensions are clearly up for discussion. As long as others want something like 500x130, I'm up for that as well. :p

500x130 sounds a little too narrow? I usually go with 500x300 or something like that.

The bigger the better I think, because we want to leave an impression :3

dero and I also thought that a link to our characters' theme songs would be really cool. (like the one in my signature)

but don't worry about that, I can handle big things.

Is it okay to just find a picture from google images of a character I like - because i wouldn't be able to make/render my own since I have negative artistic abilities. .-.

Also, Kenchiin, I clicked on that link and saw "sub text" and it took me about 1 whole second for what you said to click - I proceeded to laugh quite loudly. Thank you <3

Definitely! I don't think we're expected to draw our own characters =w=

Hope you all don't mind while I take best girl for myself.

EDIT: You can find renders easily through Google images by selecting search tools -> colour -> transparent
Thanks for the tip! :3

I think I found my guy!

I think I'll go with Simon :)

This is a cute idea by the way, I love it! If you need a different render because of the white line(and the awkward spot under Boota), let me know and I'll get something else -w-

I tried something simplistic for our theme lol.

How's this? (I used quite a few hacks so I need to know if this looks alright on your browsers)


Here's a slightly different version:

Alright everyone, I wrote up a small program to make it a lot easier to generate your signatures.

You can customize your theme colors, names, song, etc.

Just plug in your parameters and hit the play button!

Make sure you upload a 500x275 image with 20 degrees cut off from each side. If you need help with that, just send me a VM and I'll take care of it.
