Topic: Won't let me change tag

Posted under General

Hi, I am relatively new to this site so I don't really know what I'm doing. This picture features a character named "Squish" but during the approval process I think someone changed it to a regular tag which has nothing to do with the picture and it no longer has a character tag.

If someone could help I would appreciate that, thanks!

easy enough to fix and the reason you were unable to change the tag type is squish is tagged on over 100 posts.

there you go, changed it to character:squish_(character)

edit: though, who is blade_wolfie? if that's the artist and you commissioned the pic (or the other way around) then put the artist as the artist tag. no need for a pointless copyright tag.

At a guess (since there's no source) it's probably the char owner?

We don't tag char owners.

We don't? I thought that's what the copyright category right is for (among other things).

Yes I was doing an art trade with one of my friends so I assumed that the copyright would be his as its his sona

- and thanks for the help!

It's discouraged but we will let character owners/commisioners have a copyright tag if they insist on having it tagged. It's just not something that we keep track of, partly because many char owners/commisioners are also artists, which tends to confound tagging.

Edit: If there's multiple characters with the same name, we will often make a tag for that character along the lines of john_(leomole), but that's more to keep the tags straight than to claim ownership (they are handled kind of informally).
