tag group:background
[Back: tag group:index]
Every image has a background. "Background" should never be used as a tag. There is no such thing as not having a background. Even the lack of background warrants a tag.
Flat-color/ Simple Backgrounds
Images with a "flat" color background. The background may be one color, many variations of the same color, or a few colors... the 'important part' is that they do not suggest any sort of location outside of, perhaps 'the floor'.
- simple_background

Detailed Backgrounds
- detailed_background - Images with a good amount of detail in the surrounding area, enough that the character is firmly established as existing in a place with a world around them. Most pictures with an illustrated background will fall in this category.
- amazing_background - For images where the background is almost as interesting to look at as the character. Vivid, detailed, images where the artist clearly spent as much time, if not far more working on the background than the characters in the image. Basically, the cream of the crop. Use with discretion.
Specific Background Types
The tags listed above should also be used when appropriate.
- photo_background - Images with a photo as the background. Usually a real one.
- screencap_background - Instead of a photo, the background is a still from an animated source.
- 3d_background - Images that have a 2D subject (drawn, painted, etc.) and a cgi background.
- blowup_background - Images where a zoomed portion of the main image is used to act in part as the background.
- gradient_background
- pattern_background
- textured_background - Images with a nongeometric textured pattern as the background.
- abstract_background
- text_background

Also of note:
- invalid_background - If this tag is on an image, the image was tagged with a tag that was previously determined to be unsuitable, and should have the tag removed and replaced with a more suitable background one.
