congratulations to spiff who won our last challenge!
things have been a bit hectic, but we'll come up with
another one soon. yyyaaayyy. um anyway, i thought i
would be annoying and ask loads of questions because
this club is full lovely smexy coders & roleplayers and
it'd be just amazing if we could get the ball rolling.

[deer,]

do you prefer 'wide text' or 'veer fonts'?
veer sounds like deer
so veer cx

who are your favorite face claims and why?
one direction bc they are baes

who are your top coders that inspire you and why?
i really don't have an people that 'inspire' me tbh

do you prefer to use lyrics or inspirational quotes?
lyrics, but quotes have a deeper meaning.
i find it easier to use lyrics doe.

[glassea]

seems like the thread is coming out of hibernation, and i've pretty much just got back after another unplanned hiatus [sorry guys...] so yep. good to be back.

do you prefer 'wide text' or 'veer fonts'?
wide text; i'm ridiculously paranoid, actually. i feel like if i use too much veer in a form i'll be written up for excessive image use. and that's pretty much the same reason i haven't jumped on the "take a picture of your form and post that instead" bandwagon. rules, bro. but yeah, wide font is great; if you change the sizes a bit they look like totally different fonts anyways hurhur

who are your favourite face claims and why?
i really like unpopular-ish faceclaims. um. lianne la havas is my secret bae. i need to use odeya rush more. nate gill, though i wish he had more, uh, casual images available.

who are your top coders that inspire you and why?
see here

do you prefer to use lyrics or inspirational quotes?
lyrics, by far! i mean, quotes are great and all - and aren't lyrics able to be quotes, anyways? - but i prefer lyrics for the rhythm and, if it's my form, the meaning i have personally linked to the song.

[spiff]

do you prefer 'wide text' or 'veer fonts'?
veer probably, since i overuse it so much. but i rely on both.

who are your favourite face claims and why?
i use a different face claim almost every time, but you could
say that i'm particularly fond of alex watson and gaspard ulliel.
i don't have a real reason... i'm shallow and they're attractive.

who are your top coders that inspire you and why?
aurie, thorne, morris, shay and probably a bunch more i'm
forgetting. i also adore calli/mercie's work and i really do
believe she deserved to win the challenge. she has one of
the most unique styles i've ever seen. but yeah. sometimes
i cry because everything everyone codes is gorgeous.

do you prefer to use lyrics or inspirational quotes?
lyrics. you can pick and choose what you want from a song,
plus they're more flexible and easier to work with.

[abandoned.]

gaspard ulliel = yessss

i prefer veer fonts
WAY TOO MANY CODERS TO LIST
i like both xD

OKAY HI IM BACK
kinda
i keep forgetting to come on CS ;o;

[aurie]

do you prefer 'wide text' or 'veer fonts'?
i use both equally. a form looks lazy with too much veer, but it looks plain with too much wide text.

who are your favourite face claims and why?
uuuh whoever fits the character idea i have in my head??
i won't give away my go-to guys and gals tho.
that's secreeeeet.

who are your top coders that inspire you and why?
diem is forever bae. my coding would be atrocious without her around.
but at the moment i love wally and thor's coding the most. c:
i really lean towards types of coding that just pop out at me when browsing through a roleplay,
mainly because i don't feel like my coding has a 'style' at all lol.
wally has such a distinct style asdfghjkl i'm in love with it

do you prefer to use lyrics or inspirational quotes?
lyrics. i like how they flow.
quotes just give me a bad case of no muse.

i have a question! c: since i noticed that i seem to get mentioned a lot as an inspiration, i kinda want to know what about a coder that inspires you guys

[b]what [specific] things about someone's coding stands out or gives you ideas?[/b]


i think with me, i love it when things look effortlessly complex.
since my weakness is working with colors, i'm also really drawn to beautiful palettes.
symbols and wide text do a good job of adding that effect so i try to use them as often as i can without a form looking cluttered.

[b]what is the best piece of coding advice you ever received[/b]


mine was that having random, awkward blank space is a waste.
since then i try my best to fill the entire post, or code in a way where blank spots look purposeful.

I can't see auries entry for the competition :c it says I'm not allowed to view the forum? .-.
