    Just checking in to see if everything's good? It kinda looks like staff has abandoned the website.

    • Link

      We’re still handling reports and making regular updates in the background!

  • Link

    Pokes the site with a stick
    Are any of the top-level 'staff' still even active here? Last news post was in 2021 and it looks like there isn't much in the way of personal activity for the last several years. Is making this my new 'art home' even worthwhile when it could go down from lack of maintenance?

    • Link

      I’m still working on making some news happen! The site is maintained.

      • Link

        Ah, that's a relief. Thank you for the reply. Good luck with the welcome wagon!

    Hello ALLMIGHTY admit, hope you are doing well

  • Link

    this isnt a bug, but i wanted to offer a suggestion!! maybe it already is an option, but as far as i can find, you cant add one submission to multiple folders in your gallery. i think itd be nice to be able to have a submission in multiple folders!

    Noticed a curious pattern.

    Whenever I update/look at my profile page, the pageviews counter increases by 1. (If I haven't recently already been on the page that is.)
    I somehow doubt that my random occasional refreshing to check for new notifications precisely aligns with other users visiting my page.

    Might it be the case that the counter doesn't ignore the owner of the page/content? Since the same happens for submissions too.

    I don't regard it as majorly important, but a minor annoyance. (Given that even Youtube among others haven't bothered fixing this on their own platform.)

    Could also be fun to have a stats page where one can view the statistics graphed over time. Hour to hour could be adequate resolution. (It would just need to store an integer for how many views the submission had at the end of the hour. And similarly for comments and likes. Exactly how to compress the dataset so that it won't eat up 205.5 GB/year with the current number of submissions (and if using 32 bit values) is however debatable. This comment is already a text wall, so won't include my own implementation.)

    I can't upload any images. :( I get a Cloudflare error.

    I was unable to find a particular page on here related to submitting feedback, like under Community or Support at the bottom for suggestions and ideas. I wanted to request an option in the user settings to disable the popup confirmation regarding removing checked notifications. If I checked them, its safe to assume I am ready to remove them. The confirmation should only be for nuke everything, in my opinion. But I thought it would work better as an option people can enable and disable on their own, for user choice.

    So I'm not the only one, this is happening too, but when I try to upload a picture for my character, I get bad gateway error.

  • Link

    I haven't been around on this site for a very long long time. I have over 4,000 submission notifications, but I can't find a way to sort by oldest first, or even to get to the oldest without clicking "next" 300 times.. is there a way? Your "next" generates a URL with a random number at the top which means I can't just type "Pg=90" in it to get to the end of it quickly..

    I came back here to see if I could use the submission system to submit some RPs and such I had, now that pastebin blocks that content.

  • Link

    Hello almighty admin, is there a limit as to how many submissions you can upload day? I ask because there's someone spamming art, making it hard to view other people's art on the front page.

    Hello, weasyl admin. What does a user’s name in a different font, colored red and crossed out mean? Thanks in advance!

    • Link

      It means they’re banned.

    hi! i have an idea, is it okay to make a suggestion? :3
    do you think it'll be better if the embedded vimeo was the same size as the embedded youtube? i noticed vimeo vids tend to be alot smaller than youtube videos, and i feel it might be better for vimeo users if they where both the same size
    i really love this site btw! you're doing a great job ^w^

    Just wanted to drop off a complement and some odd questions...
    First, this site is so polished and nice looking. I really love it.

    My odd questions:
    How scalable is the database table? Is it a SQL server type? I'm not a programmer and I'm actually asking on behalf of someone else, but the person that wants to know will understand a pretty deep answer, even if I don't understand the question. :P

    What, in your opinion, would be the probably of an independent programmer, using the open source code, to modify it into a standard social media network, like Facebook? A simple answer will be very helpful, but if you want to give more detail that'd be great.

    Thank you in advance for your consideration and again, this site is amazing. Your team has done a great job.

      Hi! I’m glad you like the site!

      How scalable is the database table? Is it a SQL server type? I'm not a programmer and I'm actually asking on behalf of someone else, but the person that wants to know will understand a pretty deep answer, even if I don't understand the question. :P

      The database is an SQL database, yes – PostgreSQL, specifically.

      What, in your opinion, would be the probably of an independent programmer, using the open source code, to modify it into a standard social media network, like Facebook? A simple answer will be very helpful, but if you want to give more detail that'd be great.

      There are probably lots of better open-source starting points for a Facebook-style site. The majority of Weasyl’s code is pretty community-art-site-specific, and a lot of its approaches to things could be improved.

    Hey, I wish there a feature to filter someone’s art without having to ignore/block them

    • Link

      Same =D

      It’s kind of hard to add right now, but it’s definitely a priority of mine for features to write!

    If you could look into site glitches which keep occurring such as posting submissions multiple times after declaring there is an error message would be nice. I had tried posting on your forums but it tells me it doesn't accept any new members to join and report such things.

  • Link

    I have a question, do you think Weasyl will allow for HTML animations and games sometime in the near future with Flash being discontinued in favor of Animate?

    • Link

      I don’t know about the near future, but that’s definitely important to have at some point… it’s just kind of hard to make secure without breaking anything (games more than animations).

    Hi. I joined this site a few days ago since another site I used to attend went crazy and is changing completely I decided to look for other sites where to share my art and so I found this place and so far I quite like it. I'm relatively new around here so I'm currently learning about it and its functions. ;)
