Just to post my opinion. I don't like it. And I have no idea how it's going to be on my phone. I liked it better the way it was. But that's just me I guess. :/

I'm actually kind of happy with the one picture thing... ^^" I'm absolutely awful at coding, so I could never make those fancy forms anyway and couldn't join literate rps because all of the forms were just so intricate. I can't make a 'pretty' post to save my life, but I can certainly write well enough. I personally agree that rps are about writing, not about how awesome you can make your character forms/posts look. :P

{ I have a quick question, since I've seen tons of people taking about it. So, the new rule is that, when making a form for an RP, we can only use one photo in the whole form? Is that what it is, or am I just confusing myself further? }

Yep, one image per character form and that's it, unless the character is a shapeshifter, in which case you can have one extra ref image to show each form. :3 For the RP's setup page (where it describes the plot, setting, etc. of the RP), there can only be one reference image for each setting being described - for example, one image showing the house, one to show the school, etc.

I don't quite care for it either but I do like the new pictures I drew something amazing at home with one of the refrences.

Just a quick question regarding the one picture per form rule; Would you be able to link photos? Like in an 'Extra' or 'Other' section you linked a few. I was just wondering, in case that broke the rule.

No, links to extra images aren't allowed in the RP form, as they still cause many of the same issues as in-post images and are even harder to moderate for appropriateness.

    I can't search so I'll just ask this now: what if your character has a pet? Can you link to a picture or do you have to describe how that pet looks? They're not exactly a proper character, but I wasn't sure.

The pet needs to be described in words only unless it's actually a character in its own right, in which case it should have its own separate form. :3 The same goes for if the RP is from the animal's point of view and it has an owner - if the owner is also an actual character within the RP, they should have separate forms with an image for each, but if the person is only there as an addition to the animal, he/she doesn't get an image.

No links to other images are allowed at all, as those can't be easily checked for appropriateness. ;3
