Why is this image out of sync?

We have that element of fear so I didn’t wanna report the bug.

Favorite Ps1 or N64 games?

@Cosmas-the-Explorer
Not sure if it was on the PS1. I had a DreamCast instead, and there the choice was simple.

Also Soul Calibur

and Skies of Arcadia.

Forever mad at the gutted Xbox Live port of Soul Calibur.

Guesses on when WB goes bankrupt after The Flash’s meltdown?

How fetishes are work from science point of view? Like transformation fetish. I’ve searched a bit and found only some posts on a forum about psychology where people tells that they’re discovered it in childhood(and that’s related to me, though it’s not a thing I was obsessed with), some of them even with help of the ancient Greek mythology. It seems that it triggers something deeply integrated in our minds. Did ancient Greeks write their stories for same purpose people draw transformation art there? If so, this thing is integrated in out minds for thousands of years.

Do any of you collect antiques? How about stamp collecting?

did anyone got reminded of James Cameron’s avatar when seeing the g5 bridlewoodstock special?

@Modera
If that’s the case there’s some messed up shit deeply integrated in our minds.

I have some antique swords and firearms, and my house was built in the 1800’s so I guess that qualifies, too.

But I don’t so much collect them as just have them. Eventually, everyone else dies, and as families have gotten smaller and smaller there’s only so many people in my generation to receive the “everything” that no one else knows what to do with any more.

How about you? I’ve never been into stamps, but I did collect baseball cards once upon a time … I guess that might be similar?

@Ciaran
Not yet. But I do one day hope to collect some. I mostly collected knick knacks as a kid such a Golden Elephant toy from a Chinese store or an ocarina sold by a Native American. Not quite antiques but I do love them still. I do have some old books from the 1950s and National Geo magazines from the 1980s that my family found at Goodwill.

I do hope to one day get some old coins, old jewelry, some armor and swords. I like them with decoration. Maybe an old book with some elaborate decoration from the 1800s.

@Badheart
yeah, but this topic doesn’t seem to be researched a lot

Is there a way to make complex hide/spoiler rules? (like e621.net).

EG: For tag “Vector”, only show in my feed if (score > 100).

@n0pe_n0pe
Considering e621’s search engine is based on ours, yes.

In your filter, you should have input boxes titled Complex Spoiler and Complex Hide. In those you can use search-like syntax, with the things that match the query being spoilered/hidden. Each new line counts as a separate “query”, in case you have several complex things you want gone.

So for your example, edit your Complex Hidden box to include (vector AND score.lte:100)

@n0pe_n0pe
Yes, you can create custom filter and then put such rule into ‘Complex Hide Filter’ or ‘Complex Spoiler Filter’
vector AND score.lt:100

Edit: Oh, The Smiling Pony was faster

Serious question…

What do you call this new kind of classification of art which I might potentially do sometime in the future: it’s a combination of traditional art with a mixture of digital art. Peculiarly, let’s say, you took picture of your traditional drawing, then you add some drawing on that picture with additional features that would complete the work.

Ya’ know what i’m saying? So basically, should that be called like… Hybrid art?
Traditional art with some elements of digital.

@Shavkat Rakhmonov
What I’ve done before is add a tag like digitally colored, sometimes in conjunction with traditional art. There isn’t really on consensus on how digitally colored should be applied, though.

@Shavkat Rakhmonov
mixed media isn’t limited to traditional + digital, but if you tag all three it gets the message across well enough.
