3. What current rp trend do you hate?
the be honest meme. Â aka things you lowkey want to talk about but donât because you donât know how to bring it up. send me a number and iâll tell you the honest truth. either a simple yes or no answer or a detailed response.
alright, i wouldnât call this one a hate so much as i just dislike it but ...Â
the downsizing and oversaturation of roleplay icons. i get that people are getting creative with their psds and stuff, but iâve seen roleplayers with icons that are 55x55 pixels. do you have any idea how hard it can be to see details on that, especially for people who may have vision issues? if you do super saturate and deep fry your icons, then at least make alternatives where theyâre of a decent size and someone can have an idea of what the content of the icon is. like, the smallest that iâm comfortable with an icon being is like... 80x80 and even thatâs a bit on the small side for me. 70x70 and below is just. too small for my own personal use but iâve seen some really good one out there! itâs just when the contrast and all is cranked up super high and the details are very hard to make out when i just kind of go âoh boy what is that icon what is the expression of the muse whatâs going onâ with it. though i do like the 200x100 rectangular icons! those are usually really nifty to look at and use, sometimes, if youâre of a mind for it.
either make your icons small or deepfry them. please donât combine the two. it can be headache inducing. and speaking as someone who does have issues figuring things out visually sometimes, they can play hell with my brain. if the graphic is large enough that you can see whatâs going on, then i like that a heck of a lot more. iâm not saying we need to go back to the days of using gifs for everything or gif wars, but. . . sometimes i feel like people take it too far. that and 55x55 icons are so damn tiny. are we back on deviantArt? is that what this is?
that, and i have this nagging feeling that if you donât follow the trend of âthis is the current ~ * ~ a e s t h e t i c ~ * ~â in the rpc, then you get overlooked by people who go solely by aesthetic. iâm not saying itâs blatantly obvious but ... given how trends can work... yeah.
