Another suggestion:

On the series page, clicking on the cover thumbnail should open the original full-size image.

As far as I know, the thumbnail is always generated from a larger uploaded image, not uploaded as is (already as a small thumbnail). If this is correct, then this means that there is always a original full-size image for each thumbnail; it's just that there is no way to get to it.

e.g.

A series page:
http://dynasty-scans.com/series/stretch

The thumbnail on that page:
http://dynasty-scans.com/system/tag_contents_covers/000/004/175/medium/001_001_00.jpg?1393727377

There is no link to the original image.
However, you can manually go to it. You take the above URL and modify it to this:
http://dynasty-scans.com/system/tag_contents_covers/000/004/175/original/001_001_00.jpg?1393727377
Basically, you replace "medium" with "original".

OrangePekoe:

Announcement Thing

  • Direct link functionality to forum posts, and attach direct links to post history.

Would be great.

As mentioned before, there is indeed a "workaround" right now of getting the link with the correct page number and the fragment identifier to jump to the post on the page.
e.g. http://dynasty-scans.com/forum/topics/5734-suggestions-for-improvement-v3?page=14#forum_post_117274

However, while I personally am comfortable to do this (via Inspect Element, so on), it is not that easy for "normal people" to do. Also, even if you know how to do the "trick", it is still a pretty convoluted way to get a "pseudo-permalink".

More importantly, this really doesn't work that well if it is for a post near the top of the page. If one or many old posts in the thread get deleted, the post "falls" to the previous page, and so, given that the page number of the post is now different, that "pseudo-permalink" stops working.

I would like to make the following suggestion.

It is something that I have mentioned before but just randomly in some other thread. And I don't believe anyone has ever mentioned it in this suggestion thread.

 
Obviously merely my opinion... Basically, I feel that the "Source" button on image pages is not very prominent and a bit easy to miss.
e.g.
http://dynasty-scans.com/images/3920

Personally, when I post images, usually fan art, I always try to make sure to source them properly (give credit where it's due) but also to make the links prominent enough to try to encourage people to go check out the artists and their other works. I feel that any given image is basically a chance of "exposure" for the artist.

Furthermore, having the link as a "Source" button is inconsistent with how the link to the author's site on author pages is presented.
e.g.
http://dynasty-scans.com/authors/ssamba

As can be seen on the above example page, on author pages, it is a simple textual link where the label is the URL itself. Though it's not exactly the same thing (author's site vs source of an image), it is the same "kind" of thing, that is, a link to an external site page at the top of the page, and yet, they are presented quite differently.

Just personally speaking, I much prefer if the source link on image pages would be done in the same way as the link to the author's site. I think that is as prominent as it gets, because we (as in, anyone who is used to browsing the Web) would immediately see it, given that we have been "trained" to notice/locate links on webpages, and we are also "compelled" to click on prominent links.

Though this is a suggestion based merely on my preferences, I did notice a few other people also not noticing or knowing about that button. Purely anecdotal.

As a side note, given that certain URLs can be extremely long, then there would obviously need to be some consideration for layout and text overflow handling (most likely hiding the rest when it is too long). From a layout perspective, text links have the "disadvantage" of being variable in width rather than having a constant width like the "Source" button. But as long as it is handled properly, I don't think this would be much of an issue.

 
In my opinion, this is a very small change from a technical standpoint, but I feel that this might be beneficial to artists.

Super duper sketchy WIP

Really wanted to do a fashion illustration type thing for these characters and I’m planning to take it to a more polished level with colors for my own practice. I also intended for stylized realism (hence their eyes are not thaat big and more like real people sized proportions lol).

Roughly based Seol-a’s face on Si Hyeon Park, and No-rae’s on Suzu Hirose.

Also, No-rae in a skirt YAY! Don’t argue with me.

Fan art author art (!!!) by ssamba:

 
 
Original in Korean:

[image]

(feat 먹고싶다 프링글스)
술이 약한 우릐노래...
전 노래 하나에 꽂히면 질릴 때까지 그 노래 하나만 주구장창 반복재생하는 못된 버릇이 있어여-_ㅠ
아끼지마 나오고 그것만 밤이고 낮이고 계속 듣다보니 이젠 환청까지 들릴 지경...
이 무서운 집착을 끝내고자; 아끼지마를 들으면서 한 장 그려봤습니다...
뭔가 그림이라도 한장 그리고나면 약간 진정이 되는 것같더라구염. 소화기효과?

[image]

이렇게 잘라놓고 보니 제 취항도 참 한결같다는 생각이.....;

 
 
Translation by taeyeonlikesgirls (post):

“you didn’t even drink that much..;;” (too close! >o<)

(i’m craving pringles..)
norae can’t hold alcohol that well..
I have a bad habit of endlessly repeating the song that i recently got into -_ㅠ
ever since 아끼지마 had come out i have been listening to it all day and night to the point where i’m having auditory hallucination..
so i have drawn this out while listening to 아끼지마 in order to end this scary obsession i have..
somehow after i draw one, it calms me down like a fire extinguisher?

now that i’m looking back, my tastes are pretty singular, I think….;

Update from ssamba including some (non-FF) art:

I was that anon that asked her to provide a translation lol [...]

It's a small fandom after all. :3

 
You know, for whatever reason, when I first caught a glimpse of that image, the following thought streaked through my mind.

For a second, I was thinking that this might be a new character in FF, likely because the character is drawn in an FF style. (Well, it is ssamba's art style after all.)

And I thought for a second, "Wait! After the hiatus, are they introducing a random new character love rival between Seol-a and No-rae?!!"

Then I remembered, oh right, this isn't Citrus.

 
This isn't a joke, BTW. I really did actually think that for a split second before reading the translation. It is likely because I recently read the latest Citrus chapter, and... well, you can already guess the OMFG plot twist. I have no clue why I'm still reading...

여러분 하이헬로우~
진짜 오랜만이네요ㅋ
저 드디어 저번주에 컴퓨터를 바꿨습니다! 냐냐냥!
아주 고급사양은 부담스러워서 그냥 적당히 작업하기 좋을만한 사양으로 샀다능~
예상보다 구입시기가 좀 늦었어요; 갑자기 몸살감기가 오는 바람에;; 며칠 앓느라고...
여름감기는 개도 안 걸린다는데...그만 제가 걸리고 말았네여....
지금은 기력회복 중입니다!
아무튼 새컴 진짜 좋긴 하네요.
뭣보다 소음이 없어!!! 구컴은 10분만 틀어놔도 코끼리 소리가 났었는데!! 기분이 이상해!!
새컴 사서 이거깔고 저거깔고 하는 것도 상당히 진빠지는 일이었어요..
사실 전 물건 새로 사는 걸 별로 안 좋아한답니당...
편하고 익숙한 게 좋아서 투덜대면서도 웬만하면 고장날 때까지 쓰는 편이죠;
새컴에도 얼른 적응해야할텐데...아직 새 운영체제가 영 서먹서먹하네요-_-;
잘되겠죠 뭐~
아. 그리고 이전 포스팅에서 뽐뿌라는 사이트 알려주신 분 정말 감사해요!
거기 열심히 눈팅하면서 컴 구입하는데 많은 도움을 얻었습니다. 땡큐~

그냥 가면 아쉬우니까

초아! (안 닮아서 미안..;_;)
새컴으로 처음 그린 그림입니다! 가볍게 손풀기로ㅋ
몸살 때문에 헤롱댈 때 저에게 큰 위로가 되어줬네요...
이쁘고 노래도 잘함! 빠내빠내버렸어요~

Translation by taeyeonlikesgirls:

Everyone, hi hello~

it’s been a while

i finally got a new computer last week!

ones with good specs cost too much so i just bought something that i can easily work with~ it took longer for me to purchase than i’d expected;; i had suddenly gotten a flu (+fatigue) so i was sick for few days… (insert korean saying about how not even dogs get sick in the summer but she did)

but now i am recuperating!! but anyways this new computer is p good.

first of all!! not a noise! prev. computer made a loud sound like an elephant 10 minutes after having it turned on!! it made me feel uncomfortable!

so i have been installing many things on my computer and it drained out all of my energy.. tbh i dont like buying new things.. i like to constantly use something i’m used to..so even though i complain about old things, i use it until it gives out and breaks;;

i should really get used to this new one.. but i’m still a little awkward with the new OS -_-;

it’ll all be ok~

ah, and also from the prev post i made, thanks for whoever that let me know of the site called pomppu! i was web surfing and it had given me a lot of help while i was browsing for the new computer! thank you~

if i leave the post here, it’d be a little disappointing, so,,

choa! (sorry it doesn’t look like her ;_;)

this is the first thing i drew with my new computer! just for a light warm-up for my hand lol

she was a great comfort while i was deliriously sick

she’s pretty and sings well!! i fell for her~

From taeyeonlikesgirls's tags for that post:

i dont know if that is choa from aoa? or crayon pop? idk who choa is to begin with so i googled

andiedraws some fan art:

 
 

Seol-Rae Park Day

Park date. LOL.

◦°˚\(*❛‿❛)/˚°◦

AAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!

Haha, this doesn’t look like it’s done by me because the color palette is so light and fluffy. But I’m quite happy with it because the final outcome was close to what I planned. And I was able to light it better. There are things I would still improve upon like the bench I didn’t spend too much time on haha. Plus could’ve added more background shrubs, but I’m letting this go and will just do better next time.

Hmmm what else…I’ve always wanted to style No-rae with nicer clothes, but I kept in mind that the aesthetic should stay true to her personality.

Also, I only realized afterwards that I could have posed Seol-a’s hand on top of No-rae’s head! Would’ve been funnier to show that she put the bread crumbs on No-rae’s head hehe.

I encourage you to zoom-in, but if it’s a hassle, here’s a close-up:

~
For the nth time, everyone should read this manhwa and get yourself a cardiac arrest. Lol. But seriously, it’s really well written and you do not have to be a fan of manga/manhwa to like it.

Original series by ssamba at: http://comico.toast.com/titles/85

And just so you know, it’s ranked #1 amongst other manhwa over there ok!!!
