Without any shadow of a doubt, it would be, but blowjob is kinda a "historic" category on these forums that should have been called oral from the beginning...
Historic reasons explain a lot of things. Thanks for the explanation.
"active" and "passive" as I proposed basically describe if the MC participating in ANY WAY in the act or just does nothing but getting fucked.
To be used in texts together with "mood" tags to describe her skill/libido during the jobs events for example...
The tags in the mood category are exactly what I would use to convey the meaning you would convey with active/passive. None of the currently available tags really fit the mood of the images though IMHO.I think our argument shows that it is quite hard to explain the meaning of active/passive as you understand it. Maybe other words would be easier to understand, for example "lewd", "lustful" or "sensual" for "active" and "indifferent", "shy" or "passionless" for "passive".I'm not saying active/passive makes no sense the way you use it, it actually does. I am saying that it is very easy to confuse the meaning you want these tags to have with other meanings they could have in the context of sexual interaction.I could paraphrase the first sentence of the above quote to highlight the confusion: "active" and "passive" as I proposed basically describe if the MC participates actively or passively in the act, regardless of whether the MC actively or passively participates in the act. (the first part uses your meaning, the second part my meaning of active/passive)1)
You've said that you've already tagged the images, does it mean that you've used tags as those are in the software?
I want to know if it's to late to change tags like reading to read or resting to rest (we're used to that) but it would work either way.
I have used the tags as they are now in Image Tagger and I have used several other versions before that. Direct translations are easy to do via simple mass tagging scripts. Something like
for image in database:
oldtags = tags.readxmp(image)
newtags = set()
for tag in oldtags:
newtags.add(translationtable[tag])
tags.writexmp(image, newtags)
As far as I recall, I used the -ing ending for consistency. If we can get rid of -ing for all tags, it's fine by me.
2)Please clarify on these tags:
exposed
-undressing
+undressing
pov (I think it's might be our profile tag)
generic (like a default?)
Exposed is used to say that you can see parts of the body that you usually can not see. For example, if a girl wears a bra, you can't see her breasts. However, she might have pulled the bra down, so her breasts are exposed. So, in addition to the "bra" tag for the bra, the image gets an "exposed" tag.
I also use the tag to indicate that a girl is putting her pussy on display by bending over, spreading her legs and so on.
One intended use for this tag is something like the "Expose Her" job of Slave Maker.
The undressing tags are a problem. Currently, following the logic of the sex tags, they mean:
-undressing --> main character is being undressed (does not say who is doing the undressing)
+undressing --> main character is undressing someone (does not say who is being undressed)
I used to have just "undressing", but than I could not say that the main character is actually undressing her partner, not herself; I'd also like to be able to say that the main character is being undressed by someone else.
"pov" means point of view and indicates that an image shows the main character from the point of view of the player character. The rationale is that those images are preferable for slave training tasks because they do not impose a specific look on the player character, so the player has more freedom in imagining his character.
"generic" is kind of a place holder tag and says that an image could be used for several different girls (for example a close up that does not show the head). It's a similar concept to generic images in Otherworld or Slave Maker, but I don't do anything with it currently (never got around to it).
ignore/delete/move (I can guess but I am confused why they are in the front raw, where the most used tags should be so maybe they have other meaning)
"ignore" means skip this image on database generation
"delete" means the image should be deleted at the next opportunity
"move" means the image was placed in the wrong folder, e.g. an image of Belldandy in the folder for Mio
They are where they are because thats were the general, catch-all tags category is. They could just as well be anywhere else.
Intended difference in:
singer from learn singing
musician from learn an instrument
dancer from learn dancing
Rarely used tags I'm not happy with. Those that start with learn should describe that the activities are currently trained, for example with a teacher, whereas the other tags are professions . I suppose a combination of location + activity tag could replace those.
is fondle better name for cuddle? (or at least acceptable name for cuddle?)
To fondle means to touch in intimate places and is in between caress and grope. Cuddling may involve fondling, but not necessarily. It's not really the same. I've used "fondle" for all kinds of foreplay that is not covered by other sex tags, so its kind of a catch-all tag. More detail might be useful there.
Difference between ffm sex to "partners": one guy, one girl
Difference between mmf sex to "partners": two guys
Partners are the people the main character interacts with directly. For example, in a girl-girl-boy (FFM) situation, the main character might kiss the other girl and do nothing else because the other two are currently fucking. This image would get "kiss", "one girl", "ffm sex" and maybe "one other guy". "ffm sex" is there to say that it's actually a threesome, even if the current actions do not clearly show that from the perspective of the main character.
By "other people" do you mean people just stand there watching the act?
Anybody who can be seen in the image but who does not directly interact with the main character belongs to "other people" . If what a person is doing results in the image getting a sex tag (or activity tag, like dancing), that person belongs to "partners".
