Is there any plans on splitting horns into different tags based on location? Somehow I think a unicorn's horn that comes out of the forehead should be different than goat horns that come out the back of the head, which is different than bull horns (which come out from the side.

I would think that species tags used in conjunction with "horn" generally yield desired results-- except that not every character with a unicorn horn is necessarily a unicorn.

It might be worth expanding. Curved_horns is the only other horn-type tag that I can think of.

Well we do have nose_horn for horns coming off the tip of the snout (like rhinos and sometimes dragons). Which is handy to know about actually. *adds to personal tagging list for future reference*

But yeah, I can see your point. It's an interesting idea. Not so sure if whether a horn comes out of the side or out of the back of someone's head is always that clear to see. But surely specifying when it's a forehead horn or a nose_horn should be plenty doable. And maybe something to indicate if it's one horn or two? two_horns technically exists but functionally does not (only four images tagged is almost the same as not existing).

Idk, just a few ideas off the top of my head which seem doable without going overboard.

I'm surprised these things don't seem to exist yet since we have these types of tags for almost everything else. I guess people either just make-do as best they can, or maybe they aren't needed? Although, considering how often animal traits are mixed and matched, I'd guess that using species to narrow down a search might be a little hit and miss unless you're looking for one of the big ones like unicorns.

monohorn? single_horn? duohorn is a thing for some reason.

We could go the one_horn, two_horns, four_horns route like fingers/arms/toes and have anything above one horn imply multiple_horns?

It would be nice to have proper horn tags, that's for sure.

Curled_horns, though I see a lot of its specific content (horns that loop around like a ram's) in curved_horns. Perhaps curved -> curled should just be aliased, preferably to the latter as it's less vague and has more posts.

Or otherwise we could give curled_horns a curved_horns implication, since stuff that curls always curves yet not all that curves actually curls around. Yeah, on second thought that sounds better.

So it seems.
There's 108000 posts with the horn tag ^{_{(that number would be lower without the implication from unicorn and winged_unicorn)[/sup]}, and only about thousand posts with specific horn type tags. Generally, tags that the users actually search for are far more widely tagged.I suppose we could start adding subtags, but it seems like an another case of tagging something just because it can be tagged. Regardless of whether anyone uses the tags or not.}

Suggested horn types:

Unicorn horn: Horn that comes from the center of the forehead
Bovine horns: Horns that comes out the side of the head, then curl upwards after.
curved horns: horns that come out the back of the head that curve backwards.
Rhino horn: horn at the end of a snout/nose. May be more than one horn.

Also, implicate unicorn → unicorn_horn

all these should be implicated to horn and for unicorn the horn implication should be replaced with unicorn horn implication
