it seems most of us see the potential positive and negative things about this feature .. of course it will be a very long time until we need to decide if we want to add this .. but I guess ultimately the solution will be to add it as an optional thing and not enabled by default (just another checkbox in the ever growing extra tab section)

`Yitsul` I thought it was about to see what cool transformations others come up with? 🤔 I mean if you insists on a specific thing to happen you should give us some directions at least ¯\_(´～｀)_/¯

I'm glad you like it! (and indeed we are aiming for maximum satisfaction afterall) I keep forgetting that the site is not even one year old (or not even half year?) it seemed longer to me somehow

what I don't get about the tank is he wrecked it during parking - he bumped into a regular car - how is that even possible (the brain has strange logic during a dream) (I guess I should have included this part somehow.. some of the details are missing and these dreams were a bit weirder) these were definitely brought on by the illness I tend to have weird dreams when I have a fever but these happened afterwards during recovery usually there is a small idea that my brain keeps repeating something that would normally won't be terrifying I guess these could be called my-brain-doesn't-work-right dreams instead of nightmares.. (I actually have a regular night terror but it's kind of personal so I'm not sure if I should make a strip about it)

I realise also that they don't sound much like nightmares .. it's kind of weird when you are sick .. it's like you have an obsession.. my brain kept repeating the thought that 'Brain Donors' never existed and I kept going from library to library.. I think the single panels don't really do justice of the terror of these dreams

I'm not sure where these dreams come from.. my life issue dreams are usually about trying to buy a house I actually kinda remember where the disney part is coming from: long long ago (~20yrs ago) I was reading a gaming magazine and some devs talked about making a worms clone with disney characters that they never released.. at least I think I did.. my memory is kinda vague I think they ended up making some sort of strategy or car racing game later? .. it was just weird to me that they didn't just replaced the characters (and apparently still think about it)

it's cruel indeed .. all too often I would dream of going to my job coming home and then wake up realising I need to do it all over again :(

one problem with the whole thing is it would kind of defeat the whole purpose of the site.. but I'll probably change my stance on that eventually (I already did on other things) thing is accessing the clipboard is not that easy -- especially through javascript -- especially for images (need to get all sort of hoops, security and such) and of course I still need to implement some sort of selection system to work first before attempting to solve that part err.. so it may be added but only in the far far future

ok seems good enough (I accidently left the % symbol that is needed for sql like command for the exact name search)

here we go again.. sorry for using you for testing `nooz`

- another stab at the mention system fix - home page update (show likes on the small panels, smaller logo) ###### revision 1133

unfortunately that is just a markdown ( meant to be an indicator that the mention was succesful) ``(you can write any text between the ticks and make it look like this)`` (it was done this way so after you mention someone and edit a post you don't send a second mention -- unless you add the name with the @ symbol again)

- text tool size fix ###### revision 1130

good catch! I added a little correction for the size and javascript decided that I wanted to add strings together (should be ok now)

I suddenly had a good idea on how to make it work and added it: turns out javascript canvas has an easy text drawing feature - only catch is that it ignores newlines and I need to add those manually (as soon as I figure out how)

hear hear .. sadly still WIP .. (SQL is hard to tame)

indeed it's a problem of the entire programming industry ..sorry I realise I ended up just rambling in the end it's a bit half baked .. my plan is to add the tags on top of this later (as soon as I figure out a good way to add them)

- new feature: Text tool brush (prototype -- new lines and fonts coming soon) Feature requested by `Skullheart` ###### revision 1129

well.. back to the drawing board

ok it should now check for exact name first this is just a test don't be alarmed `noozz`

so far it already feels limited .. I need to keep reminding myself that these are not tags

anyway for now I added groups: [/group](/group) (let's take this one step at a time) this is as basic as it gets .. let's see how it goes

all groups: [/group](/group) please note: this feature is still experimental in a way you can just enter a word to find more than one strip later please note that the group names are case sensitive and it's not a good idea to use spaces in them and there is no way to mass change group names - try to think of a good one: it's difficult to change them later

- new feature: groups - fix for editing strip titles (unicode and emoji got lost) - fix for mentions (search for exact name first) edit: nevermind - still doesn't behave as it should ###### revision 1126

in theory it's very easy to do because all the site needs to do is rename image files and change a few entries in the database to swap two frames the problem I got is that if you edit one of the panels there is no way to tell if it's still being edited (e.g. you might cancel the edit by closing the browser and there is no reliable way to know in this case that it was cancelled) (so far the only way I see to get around this is to periodically send a message to the site if a frame is still being edited etc.) I guess i'm probably overthinking it a bit and it will be just another gordian knot problem like the timed game was

it's not so much as that it does it harm it's more like that it was such a silly little feature .. but uhh.. things escalated very quickly -- you guys pushed it to the limits in a few days I'm not sure how I can explain this.. in a way the whole site is just a cheap little thing built on old tech and attempts to mimic things that is easy for new tech by using complicated hacks and many features were added as an experiment only to see if they are possible in the first place .. but we kinda got used to them now and well.. the site mimic-ed new stuff too well and now it's hard to explain why certain features are tricky to add here so uhh.. the site is posturing as something better than itself and it does it so well that people actually believe that it is -- but in reality it was already pushed to the limit in the background like adding the animation was pushing the site to its limit -- it was just a little hack to see if it was possible in the first place -- but it ended up as something popular so now there is demand to push it further -- but as there was a tradeoff with the tech (for cost effectiveness mostly) further upgrades need to be hacks (which ironically end up on top of other hacks) in a way I feel the site was already pushed waaaaay beyond it's limits but I also clearly see the demand for more

indeed I think I thought a bit ahead from the original idea.. but then again I learned the hard way that there is no such a thing as adding a "simple little harmless feature" (e.g. I initially thought animations will be something like 2-3 frame little things .. I had no idea)

yes this is also a planned feature right now my problem with it is that it should only be available when there are no new panels made or no new panels are edited to not potentially break anything and right now there is no telling if a frame is edited the main problem is I didn't plan ahead and reordering means changing the filenames too another way I could do this to give every panel a frame index to reorder them .. but that also involves rewriting everything related to panel order.. so in theory this would be something simple to do .. if i planned ahead for it .. but unfortunately I coded myself into the corner and need to sort this mess out first

I don't see any technical problems to implement this but there are several things to consider: in a way this means we are having small clubs or groups and we are essentially slicing up the page to small manageable parts .. so it would make sense to do something like this if we got many more users (i'm thinking 100+ active ones .. but then again as we gain users storage space will be my upmost concern) another problem to consider is how these groups would be managed: e.g. what if you don't want someone to join, what if you want to kick someone out, and what if there are 3 seperate Undertale groups because people got mad at each other or didn't know that there was already a group for this also consider that we cannot make truly exclusive things here (e.g. the filenames are made with easy archiving in mind so you can spy on secret strips - in a way everything is public) .. one way I see that this would work if we wanted to make Chutney into a franchise of sort -- like if the site was just a template that anyone could set up as their own site like a WIKI or wordpress or something similar (but I digress) .. anyway so I'm not against the idea but I feel the site is way too small to add this feature at this point (also believe it or not I had a similar idea when I planned the site -- I kind of wanted 'houses' that would compete with each other for stars and likes - and there would have been a seperate house for people making jokes or writing serious stuff etc. -- anyway so once again I'm on board but we are way too early to worry about it) .. then again we definetly need something like a folder (for a series e.g. a naked jesus folder) or tags of some kind to make navigation of the archives easier at least -- and that could be the first step towards this (of course tags have the problem that I'm not sure how PHP and SQL could be pushed to implement them -- it's a thing that is easier to add for other new kind of databases)

`TeeEffDee` I guess one solution could be to add an extra check for an exact match of the name reducing string to database: we kind of do that -- it's just a bit over-engineered: there was concern about very long names and names with spaces in them -- so the system tries to auto-complete the names -- in this case: it tried to find any name like 'nooz' it's just that 'noozz' was a similar name and was found earlier in the database (as it was made earlier and has a lower id number)
