As your friendly neighborhood Admin Team, the gang here at TVTropes HQ is always working to improve the site.
Many of those improvements begin with suggestions posted right here, on the Community Wishlist. Is there a feature you really want on TVTropes? Post it.
Is there something we could be doing better? We want to know. Do you think we look fat in these pants? We were totally afraid of that. See a bug? Report it.
Important things to know:
- We're all about that content-creation life! The top contenders for our attention are ideas that'll create more content, like the video uploading feature, or speed up launching new pages. On the flip side, design or layout tweaks won't be our top priority.
- Help us dig through the goldmine of old wishlist items! If you have an old request gathering dust or spot one you're totally on board with, give it a bump and a like. There's a treasure trove of 6+ years' worth of ideas just waiting to be rediscovered. Items without enough love may not make the cut and will be closed.
- Was your wishlist item locked up without an explanation? It was most likely disapproved or just too big of a task versus the benefit it would ultimately have. Time is precious, and we want to focus on updates with the biggest bang for the buck. Don't be discouraged though! We appreciate every idea and we're always listening.
Those would be better as actual video examples.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure Pureness
On second thought, why not make it so that you can embed a video example in the place where an image usually goes?
This deaf, dumb and blind kid sure plays a mean pinball.
You can't upload GIFs to the site for... oh, I don't know how long now. Must be at least a decade, if not longer. The True Art Is Incomprehensible page used to have an animated GIF, but it's been replaced. This is what it used to look like:
Yes, it used to be supported but was deliberately cut. The line of thought was that animations were bad/distracting/heavy etc.
These days, "autoplay videos" is enabled by default, so it's likely this line of thought has been dropped.
"And as long as a sack of shit is not a good thing to be, chivalry will never die."
You can put videos in the place of images, it's just not allowed.
I'd like to apologize for all this.
I had this feeling that some trope pages don't have images because those tropes rely on something actually moving. This gave me the thought of this to happen because I think it should be a workaround for putting a video in the position of an image.
