COMMON TERMS IN EDITBLR & THEIR MEANINGS. — guide by Aria.
* this post includes long texts.
KIN / ME TAGS
usually used by fictionkins who dont like doubles. "No Kin/Me tags" means you cant tag the character in the post as your kin, nor as "you", "irl you", or similar, usually due to the OP being uncomfortable with it. just respect it.
F/O TAGS
f/o (standing for fictional other; a character one selfships with, often romantic but can also be platonic, familial, or more) tags are essentially the same as the previous; OP probably is a self-shipper (also known as Yume, but could also be a Riako) of such character, and does not want other Yumes to tag the character as "their partner/wife/husband/love", or otherwise similar terms reflecting the user having a relationship with the character.
F2U or FTU
F2U, or FTU (standing for free to use) means... exactly what you think; usage of the creation posted is allowed to the public.
NF2U or NFTU
...the opposite. usage of the work is not allowed. the OP can sometimes also add "unless [user/name] afterwards, meaning only the one mentioned can use it.
CREDIT
pretty basic in every community. leave the OP's user somewhere visible; some have preferences of how they like to be given credit, such as; Linking, (linking their post or profile to a text, usually pinned post or your bio,) @'ing them, or just Adding their user somewhere visible (again, such as a bio or pinned post.)
REPOST & REBLOG
these two have a big difference. reblog is when you click the button on the app that looks like this -> 🔁, and repost is when you save the work and post it somewhere else. never repost someone's work unless they allow it, but reblogs are always nice.
PLAIN TEXT / TRANSLATION
tons of people here use typing quirks and/or fonts that some cant read, find difficult to read, or break screenreaders, which obviously bothers them a lot. plain texts/translations are versions of the same texts that are easier to read, having no typing quirks, fonts, symbols, or whatever was making it difficult/impossible to read and such.
PSD
stands for photoshop document. can be used on photopea or photoshop. when using these, it saves the project file and when opened has each layer, instead of the flat image. the term PSD is often used for colorings that alter the colors of your picture to custom ones with settings made by the creator, but it can be used for anything.
^^ NOTE: read this please ^__^ my wording came out wrong but this kind person explained. it better
USING AS BASE
commonly used for psds. this means you cannot grab the psd, and... use it as a base, adding your own layers to it and making it your own.
if any of these are incorrect shoot me an ask and i'l change it asap. thanks.
