Tutorial: Tagging Scans Daily posts the right way

[foxhack.insanejournal.com]

I was bored, so I worked up a quick and dirty tutorial on how to add tags to your post, and some summaries on what each category tag represents. Most of us already know how to do this, but we could all use a refresher...

Anyway, the page isn't publicly available at the moment (it's a Scans Daily exclusive!) but you can read it here. If you have -any- further suggestions, please reply to this and let me know.

And for legality, how about some Liefeld?

In Windows at least, you can highlight multiple tags in the Add Existing Tag box by holding down the control key and clicking on your selections. Dunno about Mac OS's though.

Pyro has this expression of "WTF am I doing looking like this?!?"

[foxhack.insanejournal.com]

I'm sure you can do that with the Apple key on Macs; but try doing this while navigating the over 2000+ tags we have...

They really only need to be held down while you're actually clicking.

Pyro: "MMm-rro-aaa-r--rrr!! Invisbl Mootrcycl!!" =p

Followed the link, read the tutorial, and am wondering: Is there a tag for "NSFW: Photograph of Rob Liefeld's scary scary face?" Because THERE SHOULD BE. D-:

I'm thinking a "nsfl:liefeld" tag would work fine.

Oh thank GOD !

Ta for this! Bookmark-ed.

Though the tutorial was not as dirty as I was promised.

I can't have porn hosted at my site, so.

[shadeedge.insanejournal.com]

A pox upon host providers.

[foxhack.insanejournal.com]

Consider this:

A) He's hosted me for close to seven years;
B) He has never ever asked me for a penny;
C) I've been the biggest bandwidth leech at Parodius.com for three years.

The dude has rules, and I have a very sweet setup. Besides, you can get porn everywhere else.

[shadeedge.insanejournal.com]

Fair play to the guy, then. A panacea upon host providers!

THANK YOU!!!

I always post, then go back and edit the tags. It can be pretty annoying. And I find that I'll use the list, then when I click on say, char: Big Bertha frex, it inserts that over what I've just put in the tag list. ARGH!

Also, you may or may not know this but Liefeld just so happens to be on Twitter. That's right! You can get your daily dose of him, foxhack! ;-P

[kingrockwell]

Yeah, if you're gonna select tags from the list and write-in tags, you have to select any before you do write-ins. Alternatively, you can always cut/paste write-ins before/after you select.

Awesome tag writeup, Foxhack. A link to this needs to be included in the Scans_Daily front page.

Oooh, thanks for that foxhack! Have bookmarked it for future reference. I've been too intimidated to post here!
