So, a thread for each adoptable? An archive thread?

Yes, a lot of people may have a main thread, an archive thread, a breeding thread, a fan club/discussion thread, etc. It's probably best you don't split your adoptables up in too many threads, otherwise it can get confusing and hard to find. And you don't want to spam the forums up with too many unnecessary threads. So as far as a thread for each adoptable goes- if it's not on the adoptable Oekaki, which already does that, I wouldn't suggest that. It would be considered as forum spam. The main thread should be where all your adopting goes on, and most everything else. Extra topics like an archive thread are normally made to keep the main thread less image/link heavy and cluttered. Breeding threads are so people don't spam up the main thread with requests.

Basically, extra threads are made to keep the main thread clean and organized. So if that is your goal, go for it c:

G.B.
"hi, i'm G.B., one of Ember's real life cats.
just so you know, Ember is just a site artist, she
can't help you with forum or game problems.
please submit a help ticket if you're
having issues!"

Rosie
"hey, i'm Ember's other cat, Rosie.
if you're wondering, her PM's are always
open if you have other questions or
just want to chat. she does not
take commissions anymore.
"

she/her | adult | full-time artist

i am mega busy these days, my time on CS is super limited. apologies if trades/pms/etc go unanswered - i just have other things that take precedence

You start off with a thread, some characters and an adoption form that people can use. It's not too difficult to get the basics put together, but to make it successful, there are a lot of key elements named in the front of this guide. <3

How do you set up your adoption agency? Could you, like, send me the basic setup for it... or something? Because on some of the treads ive seen, people have these special things set up, and I don't know how to. :?:

You can try Photobucket. It is a free image hosting site, or Imgur, it also is one.
