post #4660849
It doesn't necessarily need to be someone transforming into a preestablished character.

I'm not aware of such a tag, and I imagine it could be difficult to discern with TWYS (e.g. would post #4599889 count? how do you determine the cause of something given a single image? it can end up very subjective without enough context, which is often the case).

oh, I'm going to blame the owospeak for having misread that. _{even though I'm not sure it was even active at that point.}

I'm surprised that transforming_another is totally empty and has, in fact, never been used. there are cases where the transformation visible is initiated by another party, like post #3281329. I feel like this is a situation that _could_ be tagged but just isn't currently.

although I'm not sure about extending it to tag situations where a character is just given transformation potion of some variety by another character, that seems too, like, detached to me.

Is there a tag for sex being had for non-sexual reasons? Like having sex to remove heat or having sex for an assignment.

Tag for when the mouth "stands out" like this? post #4700935

Do we have a tag for this two pieces bikini bottom? The outer panty-like swimsuit and the inner bikini combined.

should the voice_acted tag be used for automated voices or stock voices?

No, that's why songs in the audio don't count either

I know this isn't exactly wrestling, but personally it reminds me of the canadian destroyer, does wrestling have its own individual tags for the moves? post #4603750

8 months ago back on page 33 I asked about a tag for NPC related stuff and I finally got around to making it myself: npc_behavior. I need a bit of help populating it though.

Is there a tag or even an artist that specializes in "feral anthros", anthromorphs that are essentially pets that stand on two legs, or maybe crouched down on all fours like a human would? Brownie points if there's another character that treats them like a pet. I guess you could say "Pet Play" but like for real.

are we talking about a sort of Garfield and Jon situation?

domestic_pet could be used like that, I guess. but it dosn't seem like it is used like this very often, it dosn't seem like it'd break the definition stated in the wiki, but it also seems like it might be a bit out of the spirit of the tag.

there is an existing human_pet tag, but nothing for other forms, but I don't see why they couldn't be valid. _{although human_pet seems to be used both for humans actually being treated as a normal domestic pet and well as more "standard" petplay scenarios... mostly the latter, actually.}

the only thing I can think of (outside of actual mainstream stuff with sort of semi-anthros) is kind of part "actual pet" and part petplay (although, again, it's heavy weigted to the latter); if you don't mind shotas it's wherewolf's Pet Furry series.

Thanks for the quick reply. Not exactly what I was looking for but at least it's something. I just wished there was something more like this around the site. Ah well, one can dream.

how should i tag these kind of external skin teeth?

Is there a tag for stuff like kissing noises or sex noises all up in your ear? Y'know, stuff that would generally be enjoyed by audiophiles?
Like at minute 2:30 in post #3833047 where malo is like, licking generic pov guy™'s ear or something (it's unclear to me bc the pov isn't looking at her like it's a kiss) anyway, got sidetracked. If i find another example i'll edit it in

Edit: the audio in this post (post #1384058) also fits the bill of what im talking about

How would we go about tagging something like FurryBound? It's a cast of characters in pinups and comics from a DA/FA/Twitter account named "FurryBound", but person behind the accounts is more like a publisher commissioning art (at least I think so), so that doesn't seem like an artist tag (even though there is one for FurryBound). Would that be a copyright tag, similar to something like the copyright tag for Twokinds? I saw another forum post saying how commissioners shouldn't be copyrights, but would it be valid for "FurryBound" as the concept of the in-universe bondage modeling agency, kind of like a brand?

Ultimately, I would prefer some way to see all the FurryBound related art without having to list all the characters, so if there's a convenient way to do that, please let me know.

I think what you're looking for is: asmr.

I don't think asmr should be used for just any sex noises, otherwise the tag is going to very quickly become mostly useless.

Yeah, I think all sex noises can be classified as moans

Is there a tag like "head turned" but more extreme? For situations like an owl character turning their head completely around to look at the person behind them. There's a niche "180 sloppy toppy" tag, but that specifically involves oral.

post #4721492
Have any idea how to tag those clothes?

I've been working on the finding new images for thumbnails on the gameplay_mechanics wiki, and there are a couple concepts that are used as examples but don't have their own tag listed, instead sharing the text_box tag with all boxes that have text in them even when not game related.

The first one would be event logs that have text stating what events are happening in game. Stuff like "The attack missed!" and so on.
post #3051864

The other one is selection menus, with options like saving, attacking, picking up items, ect.

post #1709829 When the clitoris moves in and out?

there's clitoral_winking, but that's something that happens on its own. the example given shows it being caused by penetration so, that wouldn't fit.

vaginal_tugging might be what you're looking for, I think.

How should I tag the use of another character as a weapon? improvised_weapon is the best I could come up with.

Barely visible characters? Like images that you'd assume were zero_pictured at first. Recently uploaded these Warriors pieces by ClimbToTheStars and the cats are very small and hard to spot initially. (Especially at thumbnail size)

post #4733677 post #4733683 post #4733696

I wouldn't say they're ambient, especially not the one of Yellowfang hiding Brokenkit in a log, but they're definitely much more scenery-focused. I know I've definitely seen some other images like this around here.

scenery_porn has a decent handful, but it's not really the same meaning. These are probably closest:

Is there a tag for generic cartoon critter? https://e621.net/posts/1381700 Tagged red panda, definitely not. Artist and commissioner sources doesn't say. On a quick glance, I'd say Conker-style squirrel, but the tail is more feline, so then I'd actually say Sonic-style squirrel. If I absolutely had to, I'd go with 'felid', but the face says squirrel or chipmunk to me. I think we need toon_thing or something on top of ambiguous/unknown species.

It's a weasel named James, owned by wolf459.

So by TWYS, when there's absolutely no way I would have guessed weasel (digging through the gallery I would not have guessed it's the same character, being forced to pick something I would have said 'toony cougar'), I still think we need a tag for overly_stylized_cartoon_thing_your_guess_is_as_good_as_mine (especially for cases where there isn't any way to find out).

Species aren't entirely TWYS due to some styles (and lack of knowledge by some artists) making it difficult to tell just what sort of species it is, so often we'll at least partially take the source's word for it. Theoretically, in cases like what you describe, we tag unknown_species plus whatever general species tags we can use, like mammal, and then cross our fingers and hope someone who would know better stumbles across the post and cares enough to correct it.

A possible problem with a tag for an overly_stylized_cartoon_thing_your_guess_is_as_good_as_mine tag is that it could veer into mimiff territory, which we want to avoid. But this is a discussion that's better off in its own thread.

kevsnowcat said:

there's unknown_species when a character seems to have an identifiable species but you don't know what it is, and
there's ambiguous_species for characters who are supposed to be just vaguely anthro "things" without any species name given by the creator(s) and with no directly identifiable species of origin.

I thought unknown was for both of those cases and ambiguous is if there's not enough body parts in frame to be able to tell, like an arm with spots that could be a clouded leopard, genet, dalmatian with a dye job, hyena, or anthro sea slug.

First time forum poster, I've looked all over but there doesn't seem to be a tag for short & muscular characters, which I think we could benefit from. There are plenty of good examples of this (post #3753349, post #2215377, post #2238934) and while you can get great solo results via muscular short, it gets a lot of false positives when trying to find images with more than one character, particularly with same-sex posts (good luck trying to find the right posts via muscular_male short gay).

If shortstack and teapot exist for short, bottom heavy characters, surely we can have a tag for short and built ones, right?

Use two tags.

Is there a tag for a tentacle coming out of someone? I don't mean through and back out (all_the_way_through, threading), I mean being in someone already and coming out.

I used to use the tentacle_from_x tags, but it looks like they were cleared or deleted recently, because the tentacle_from_pussy tag went from having two pages iirc to only six posts. Which is unfortunate, as trying to do "tentacle birth" doesn't cover a lot of what that tag used to cover, leaving those posts undiscoverable to me now...

Edit: half nvm, it's Tentacles_from_pussy, I'm stupid. But having a good tag for that would still be nice n.n

usually stuff like parasites and whatnot living/growing inside of a character is infestation, which is what this sounds like. so like infestation tentacle should cover most of this.

Still think we need to come up with a proper name for a tag for prostate_on_the_wrong_side, seeing more and more of these (not just the general bad anatomy tag).

Why was the "wholesome" tag removed and is there a replacement?

yarizui said:

Because "wholesome" is a subjective concept. It can't be objectively quantified. One person's "wholesome" can be another's "mah" and even a third's "perverted".

Can we implement a tag that is less subjective but carries the meaning in more definite terms? In it's current state it takes a handful of tags to search for things that I would consider "wholesome" ie a search like "rating:safe hug fully_clothed" might come close but is limiting. Maybe "edifying" or something of that nature would be an appropriate tag? Safe or lightly questionable rated works that don't have a pornographic focus and have a feel-good nature.

That would be a discussion best moved to a thread of its own, as we've had several of similar nature already.
