Tags Clean Up and a Reminder on Images
As per members' request jadis and I had a tidy up of the tags list and also added a few new tags. The new tags are:
- orange prize - a British prize for fiction.
- richard and judy book club - the popular British equivalent to the Oprah Book Club.
- shakespeare
- tolkien
- satire
- cyberpunk
- magical realism
- myth and legend
- family saga - fiction that chronicles the lives and doings of a family or a number of related or interconnected families over a period of time.
- conspiracy fiction - a genre made popular by Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code and many, many books in the same vein.
- misery memoirs - also called mis lit this recent genre is said to have been founded by Dave Pelzer with his 1995 A Child Called "It" and continued by others including Augusten Burroughs.
- foreign language - for books in a language other than English.
- 19th century literature - for writers such as Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, Louisa May Alcott, the Brontes, Elizabeth Gaskell, Mark Twain, Thomas Hardy and others.
We also had 'foreign language - translated' suggested but we already have a 'translation' tag that cover this.
We encourage members to use tags on their entries. The list can be found here and the easiest way to add them is to do so after your post appears on the community by using the 'tag' icon. New tag requests should be posted here.
Also, just to remind again about cover art and the new rule that images over 150X 200 pixels need to be placed under LJ Cut. If you are hot-linking to images on the web rather than sizing and uploading to LJ/photobucket or similar, be aware that sometimes the sizes can translate over as quite large. Thumbnails are a better bet.
Edit: from jadis:
One note on the image size limits...if you know how to code an image link, adding dimensions is the easiest thing in the world. No need to download, resize and re-upload an image you want to use. You can hotlink and resize at the same time by using the following code:
