no, i don't care

people do judge if there's mixed icons, just look at lasthungrywolf

Anon I'm in the same boat as you with a player in my game who doesn't have an HMD or Opt Out it's so frustrating

they have an inbox

hth

wrt the pb not exactly matching, i don't think anyone cares but be prepared for people to completely ignore your writing about your character's appearance and just reference the icon

Depends on how mixed. Like lasthungrywolf gets flak because those characters are completely different from each other.

If you mean something like fanart that don't look that similar but still clearly the character, that's fine.

also, lasthungrywolf gets flak for being lasthungrywolf

anon(s) above, your script is: "hi, I'm enjoying our threads but I find it difficult to write tags when your character is always correcting mine. my character would find that frustrating and wouldn't keep talking to them. would it be okay to tone it down so they can have a proper conversation?"

i cant touch grass because only care about sora and palpatine fucking the chicken after they nuked hitler

of all of the things ive seen people rib lasthungrywolf for, icons ranks pretty close to the bottom of the list, anon

you can also refer to the last wg post

aw geez "you've visited the page 4 times" sure sounds embarrassing out of context lmao. i looked him up because of the last post.

the only time i will judge icons is if you use anything but 100 x 100.

op said "in the meta text" which ime that kind of script just leaves you open to "well my character isn't ACTUALLY SAYING IT" kinds of retorts.

maybe something like, "hi, I'm enjoying our threads but I'm apprehensive how this cr might go based on your character's meta text. what direction are you hoping this cr might go in?" and leave the ball in their court. if they act confused, copy-paste examples from their meta text. their attitude will tell you all you need to know whether it's worth pursuing or not.

leave more or less specific concrit if you want nonny, but be prepared to just ditch the cr because sometimes it's not an legit ic issue, it's an ooc where were some people can't stand the idea they aren't right or aren't "winning" at rp. those kinds of people aren't worth your time and energy.

yeah anon i said "close to bottom"

not "never mentioned"

just "not mentioned as much as other things"

nah

even mixed LA and drawn icons i don't care, even though i personally prefer consistency

with some of my weirder designed OCs finding a good pb is hard sometimes, and i'm more excited about getting into the fun parts of actually writing them so i'll use placeholder icons i end up replacing later (sometimes much later), time and commission money permitting

this shit happens to my canon characters all the time, especially when i take a sci-fi character and put them in a modern-day setting

look sometimes i get really tired of and feel really obnoxiously repetitive opening up every single top level with BY THE WAY THEY'RE IN MODERN-DAY CLOTHING

maybe jamie should have just? nuked?? rebutle??? fatly??????

I miss rp!s. It's too bad no matter how much it got revived, it'll just crash and burn.

i posted that picture because it is literally the first result on a Google search. that's why your statement was funny.

it's the first result because of your own browsing habits, anon. the cap literally tells on you. it knows that's the link you are specifically looking for.

very very funny that people still have no idea that this is how google works

same, anon.

if i didn't already know it would die once the novelty wore off for people, if not immediately, i'd consider giving it a shot.

About as many as that person who musedumps horror characters

That's a the icing on the trash cake. If they weren't shitty otherwise no one would even notice them. Not unless they had bad icons the same level as like that one Naruto OC
