IN CASE 8CHAN IS DOWN: http://txti.es/monarchy FOR NEWS ABOUT WHERE TO REGROUP

Welcome to /monarchy/. I'm editing this top post in order to condense things. This is now the only sticky and a general meta thread. There has been no change in BO, I'm just trying to clean things up a bit more. I may delete out posts in this thread just because I would like keeping the >>1 post for tradition's sake.

Rules: https://8ch.net/monarchy/charter.html

About/Links: https://8ch.net/monarchy/about.html

More specifically, if there is a new BO or volunteer of /monarchy/, it's announced here. If there is a change to the rules, it is promulgated here. This is also a thread I'll use to be a little less aloof and talk about minor and meta stuff: general feedback, complaining about troll threads, accepting submissions for flags, banners, moderation, and rules, etc.. A court, if you will.

flags can only be 11-20 x 11-16 pixels. When I try to resize anything to that size (including >>8350 's), I end up losing a lot. I've considered just making a solid purple be the monarchist flag.

A suggestion, your Grace. Invert the colors, use something dark for the background images, then use some shade of purple for the text color, it would be far less garish. Consider the Tomorrow theme from the list of pre-made ones as your inspiration.

Maybe you can try emulate the design elements of palace interiors. Like by adding some fluer de lis everywhere, and by decorating the posts with classical floral patterns, and maybe also doing something with the borders.

I approve of the latest style sheet for /monarchy/. It's dim on my eyes to have a dark background rather than coming here and having a light background glow in my face. This dim color scheme is much softer. It helps a lot.

>>8410

Good call. I like this design already.

>>8411

I think we shouldn't mess around with font color. Keep it simple white on black text. It's very nice as it is already.

Also, we need to find a way to get more monarchists on this board. This week has been a great uplift in people. Great traffic and upkeep in board activity. If only now we had more volunteers making monarchist banners.

Thanks for the help.

I'll probably leave the font and other colors as it is. I think I like the borders as they are. It would be nice if they could have a tiny flourish, but I'd probably screw that up, so I'll take what I can get there.

Regarding fonts, I was not referring to the color, but I was getting at the actual font. I wanted to find something that looks like the kind of print used in an 18th century newspaper (and ended up with that garish cursive font in testing), but the 8ch limits the css here to what you can find in Google fonts.

Also, I don't know whether it might be worthwhile to throw an embassy thread in /fascist/.

If there's anything we could gain from /fascist/, I think they have a nice set of banners. /monarchy/ is definitely a more light-hearted board and that is a good thing. I was kinda hoping with all these /fascist/ anons on the board, they'd also import their banner-making craft and help in that thread.

>Banners are a waste of time, imo. I have an ad-block installed in my brain

The cultural renewal on /monarchy/ has been a steady success so far. I like that we have a new style board and slowly moving towards emblems/banners. I like coming into a thread and seeing the banners on top.

>The same energy can be spent on drawing Grace-chan.

I've worked behind quite a few Grace Chan pics and I'm spent. All my resources and draw friends are spent. If only someone else could commission a piece I know where cheap artists are who charge very cheap … or, if some anon could bring over a drawfag they know. It would be tremendous assistance. I cannot provide another Grace Chan with the situation I'm in.

>Based.

That was the plan! An 8chan renaissance of board-tans resurging as a popular medium here. An underground board-tan culture between /monarchy/, /liberty/, /fascist/, /pol/, and /leftypol/.

As for the cultural renewal and board-tans, I was kinda hoping that Intelligentsia had a few arts and crafts up his sleeve this run for the banners. I was surprised at all the Russian content like the 'Third Rome' picture and Tsar waifu.

We'll have to see what resources the board has. If only we had an extra drawfag, or someone willing to get us a few pieces of Grace Chan art. T'was my greatest hope that anons would start drawing Grace Chan themselves without my working.

You know what would be cool? Having images at the bottom-right corner of the screen which change on a weekly basis, like maybe Grace-chan, or the emblems you guys have made, or at least a floral to fill up the empty space.

>That was the plan! An 8chan renaissance of board-tans resurging as a popular medium here. An underground board-tan culture between /monarchy/, /liberty/, /fascist/, /pol/, and /leftypol/.

Sounds like you can make a slice of life anime out of this. What about going to /loomis/ or some other art board, and asking those guys if they would be interested in doing a piece featuring all these mascots? It's not like they would be shilling for any one particular mascot, so they might be interested.

>I was kinda hoping that Intelligentsia had a few arts and crafts up his sleeve this run for the banners.

Yeah, well, Intelligentsia is a faggot. He said he doesn't like banners, but now he'll probably make some anyway.

>T'was my greatest hope that anons would start drawing Grace Chan themselves without my working.

Oh, I totally know that feel, it sucks to be the only one memeing. I'm doing the mascot for /liberty/ right now, so my hands are full with that, but I'd love to do lots of Aurelia x Grace anime crossovers later on.

Much thanks. My only request is that if anyone goes out and commissions/drawfags/finds a drawfag, give them this pic related, a reference picture from the original OC.

I only have 2 things to request:

#1. Grace keeps the color purple. (costume changes are fine?) Overall same appearance.

#2. Don't forget her crown badge.

Finding commissions and talents aren't too hard.

There's Deviant Art, Twitter, and plenty of artists who take commissions on other websites. I've actually gotten one from /v/ before in a request thread. They're a pretty nice board, but I wouldn't pester them about it.

If anyone gets to producing a Grace piece and doesn't have an idea, here are a few ideas I had written down long ago.

#1. Grace Chan rising from the lake, presenting Excalibur.

#2. Grace Chan with glowing eyes and SHUT THE FUCK UP, MONARCHOMACHIST

#3. Grace Chan with Alunya put in a Guillotine, singing "Guilotine Permeante"

Grace Chan is sitting on top of her. She is somewhat nonchalant. Alunya is

strapped in the guillotine like a reverse of events.

#4. Grace chan with Alunya, holding a Noose around her neck.

The noose is held with her behind, in a semi-lewd fashion, as Grace says,

"Hanged, drawn, and quartered." Almost in a sardonic way, but seductive.

#5. Grace Chan in solemn prayer.

#6. Grace dressed up as a cavalier, but purple garb.

You can test the CSS in realtime with ctrl + shift + I if you're using Chrome, just go to the sources tab, click on "stylesheets" > "board" > "monarchy.css", and it's easy to see your changes. I'm sure it's something similar for other browsers.

Also, after some more testing (thanks for the code though), I think I might leave it as it is. There are a number of browsers I find that trying to put a layered background ends up breaking everything.
