Animation Source Forums

These are just ideas, things that I think would be good, to improve on the fan fiction section. Heres my ideas:

1) Members can see how many times somebody has clicked/read on your fan fics

3) Pictures in the fan fiction are NOT saveable (as they may be someones art and want them safe from theft, but not on the cover so people can click on it) I have mentioned this before and have become quite strongly about it.

4) Able to write a discription (like the artist presentation but slightly different), just a quicky and short one that shows up in the lists of names on the main fan fiction menu, so people can read and see if your name and short summary catches their eye.

5) Able to tell who has faved you (the same for fan art as well, if possible) This is something that would be nice to know, but I don't mind to much about this.

Well, tell me what you think of these ideas, and if they could be possible

1) Possible, but two possibilities:

- The counter only counts how many times the fanfic has been displayed, and then people can cheat by refreshing the page. Rather easy to make but far from being reliable.
- The counter counts and keep the IP of the member who visited the fanfic to avoid cheating. Very difficult to make and waste of space in the database...

2) ?? There's no 2?

3) You want to prevent visitors to save pictures? Very easy to add. Tell me if that's really what you want.

4) Not enough space I'm afraid...And it would be redundant with the artist presentation.

5) I think it would be better to keep that anonymous. But it would be possible to do it. I don't know, I probably would need more opinions about this before deciding to add something like this. (After all some people may want to stay anonymous on that)

So I guess this could cause problems, eh? Well, I guess it doesn't matter that much, I just thought it would be good to know so you could tell which were your best and how popular your fics are.



Oh yea Sorry, I must have forgot about 2.


Yes, this is the main thing I find. I'm sure that I am not the only one who doesn't want their art to go with the fic stolen. I do feel strongly for it, yet I would love to put my art into my fics. Take Catwhohas14tails for example, her art was stolen and if say she put her art into her fics, their could be a risk of them being stolen again. I don't want that to happen, I know I would feel better if it was unsaveable, and I'm sure others agree. If it's easy, I say do it!



Thats fine, Steet, now that I think of it your right.



Yea, anonymous is good too Gives an air of mystery to your gallery! Thanks anyway Steet

I like nr. 3- It's a good idea, that no one can steel your art, from your fan fics. I haven't written a fan fic myself, but am thinking about doing it, and I know I would add art to it, if i wrote one. So it would be nice, if you could make sure the art wasn't saveable...
