Torchwood, Friday Night Lights and Supernatural screencaps/gallery poll

Jan 25, 2008 20:09

Oh Torchwood, you are so silly and cheesy, and thank goodness you don't take yourself too seriously.

I made some screencaps, because Torchwood is pretty. And Supernatural caps because I was missing an episode, and Friday Night Lights, because it's also pretty.

Ooh, I much prefer style one - seems like I am in the minority, though! Being able to go from cap to cap is a clincher for me, as I frequently do go through looking between slight variations (ironically, the set-up you were beta-testing earlier, which wouldn't save in Firefox, wouldn't save because it was clicking onto the next cap, ne?). The jumping to later index pages doesn't really matter as much to me, since one can skip through index pages on style one.

If you were to go with style two, definitely the larger thumbnails. That way I'd be able to see enough that there'd be less need to skip from one cap to another.

Can I just say how much I appreciate you doing the caps <3 I use them a lot (sometimes just to look at the pretty, ahahah) Thank you!

Yeah, style 2 is getting most of the votes - I'm just hoping people aren't being influenced too much by the colour scheme, because that's totally irrelevant. Anyway, I'm still looking into alternatives that will give the cap to cap facility - I just can't get it to work (on Firefox) with the script I've been using. But I'm asking around, and maybe someone will be able to suggest something better. I have to admit though, I haven't done a thing about it today - just too depressing thinking about making all those galleries again! Grrr.

And OMG, I've just realised it's Sunday evening and I haven't nagged you about writing yet!! So, horribly late, but NAG NAG NAG!! What have you written this week?

It's so frustrating when bigs are browser-specific! Good luck in finding a script that works better. And if I can give you any help with the gruntwork in redoing the galleries (I'm no coder, but maybe there is raw labour involved?) I use them a fair bit, so I feel like it's only fair if I can put something back!

Ooh, my weekly prod *looks shifty* This week has not been a good week for writing, what with one thing and another in RL. But your prod tonight gave me a kick up the arse to do a drabble, at least *loves on you* I shall post it tomorrow. Also, I have an idea for a new fic! \0/ Just when I was getting all emo about my failure to come up with any new ideas lately!

In other news, I just watched up to the S5 breakup in GG *cries* So there may be compensatory schmoopy futurefic sometime in the near future, ahahah.

How's your writing going?

Aww, you're so sweet to offer help! The work needs to be done on the entire galleries though, so short of sending you tens of GB of folders of screencaps, it has to be done by me! I have had one suggestion I'm looking into, but I suspect it's not going to be a quick way of making galleries - I want to make usable ones, yes, but I also need it to be easy and quick or I just won't do it! *g*

Aha, thank goodness I remembered to kick you! I shall look out for your drabble. And whee, a new idea, I love that feeling.

I just watched up to the S5 breakup in GG *cries*

*holds you* I knew it was coming, because I'd been spoiled to a degree, but it didn't make it hurt any less. And oh, I could have hurt Luke for the way he treated Dean! Schmoopy futurefic will help make the pain better, though. *sad puppy dog eyes*

I feared as much with the galleries. Still, if I ever can help you out with anything, let me know. (This also goes for betaing, btw.)

I kind of guessed the break-up was coming, since I knew Jared would leave before the end of the show, but it was still woe! But I'll see what I can do with the schmoop <3

You'll definitely get taken up on the beta offer sometime! I'm always trying to rotate my begging so I don't drive any one beta mad!

It was definitely woe, and although I did still enjoy the show after that, I never had the same love for it. It requires lots of AUs or futurefics to set things right.
