Valkaiser: @VeeGilante: The generic thumbnail was corrupted when I started posting svgs (I don't think anyone else has). It was changed to the one AMKitsune described above when I reported the problem. I was amused :3
Valkaiser: @VeeGilante: Rawr, nice pic :3
You should become an SVG patrician, then Kazerad will no longer be able to mock me :P
I would note that the booru does not handle SVGs well. My last image contains code that alters the page structure to allow proper dynamic scaling. It's right at the top.
The Image Only button doesn't work because the booru thinks all images are jpegs. Kaz still hasn't fixed that (it's not like he's busy :3)
*pokes Kazerad*
Valkaiser: Yo @AMKitsune, I'm really happy for you and Imma let you finish, but the booru needs moar butts.
err...
They definitely look like Welkynd stones to me. A few possibilities suggest themselves:
She flees a drunken (and very dangerous) midnight assignation.
She is having a dream about dungeoneering (aaaaargh, I'm not wearing any pants!).
She is about to relax in a delightful hot spring just off panel.
Or maybe she used her clothing as a decoy to throw off pursuit whilst she escapes an ill-advised misadventure?
Valkaiser: Good job though. Head looks good. You weren't afraid to put detail into the armor. Only criticism that jumps out is the length of upper vs lower legs (shift the knees up a bit). I can dig it :3
Valkaiser: Err, wait. Webserver looks more like nginx 1.8.0.
I don't know anything about configuring that then.
I should be like, drawing or something.
Yeah, the arts...
Valkaiser: The same thing happens with other image files, such as PNGs, but the browser is smart enough to recognize that it isn't really a jpeg.
This could be caused by your web server configuration. As you appear to be running Apache, this might cause it:
<Location /fanartbooru/_images>
ForceType image/jpeg
</Location>
Of course, I am making wild assumptions based on whatever little gobbets of info I can scrape from your web server.
Valkaiser: I think I figured it out! The HTTP response header generated when retrieving the SVG via the "image only" button (in this case, linking directly to "http://www.prequeladventure.com/fanartbooru/_images/fdc6078861a74f5e831439f9da10e0ad/2230%20-%20Crossover_Collab%20Katia_Managan%20adorable%20artist%3AValkaiser%20casually_underdressed%20very_casually_underdressed.svg") incorrectly specifies the "Content-Type" field as "image/jpeg". This confuses the browser as it correctly receives the SVG data and then tries to parse it as a jpeg file. The "Content-Type" that should be reported is "image/svg+xml".
Valkaiser: Now that I'm thinking about it. The version of the booru I'm using retrieves images via PHP. This booru doesn't appear to. Maybe this booru is running an older version of Shimmie2? I wonder how I could find out...
Valkaiser: @Tahrey: What I mean is, the image board software is somehow confusing the browser. I can view the plain svg file with my browser just fine. I can even rename it to an html and it works. I set up my own image board using the same software that this one is based on and it works (this is mainly why I think it should work).
...but in the source for this page, the "Image Only" button is just a form element that directly links the image when clicked. It should work.
The same problem happens with the other two SVGs I uploaded here, which have no embedded javascript or CSS, so that isn't it.
I'll have to run some more experiments when I return home.
@Tahrey: I think vector graphics are receiving new attention due to the explosion of mobile devices and the need for crisp graphics at multiple screen sizes.
Valkaiser: @Armored-Struggle-Wagon: Whelp, I gave people you people 4 days and no response. I'm gonna jump in with a request for Gharug gro-Upp (that is, if you have enough green for his "luscious, steely pecs").
Valkaiser: @Tahrey: I can display the raw file just fine with both Chrome and Firefox. SVG is a first class citizen of HTML5. Interaction is accomplished through CSS and Javascript since SVG is just XML and can be manipulated as part of the DOM.
I was referring to booru extensions. The one I set up to test uploading SVGs to is fairly vanilla, and the "Image Only" button works fine.
Valkaiser: That's odd, I just noticed that the "Image Only" button doesn't work for this picture. It worked fine when I tested it on my local instance of the booru...
Maybe some extension I don't have enabled is mangling/getting mangled by it.
@POMA: I wondered when someone would get around to that :3
@Tahrey: Oh, I fully agree that it was unnecessarily juvenile. It was a thin pretext for me to learn how to create interactive SVGs.
Inkscape is free, and you can view the source of this one to see how I did the interactive bits (it's likely there are poor stylistic choices, but it works ya? :3).
Valkaiser: @woundedkneecap: Sorta. I mean, there is a cheat code. Roll the mouse around to find the clue.
I always draw the figure first anyways, so I figured, why not? My previous image was less complicated, so I didn't do it quite the same.
@reluctantNovelist: Glad you like it!
Valkaiser: @POMA: You're right. It's the same in my reference pic http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/bof/images/4/48/KattBF2.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20080229032150
Just now I tried removing the left forearm interior curve, but it didn't really help.
(nice explanatory pic!)
Valkaiser: Kaz, you removed the questionable tag...
This image is actually interactive, and, uh, questionable decisions were made under the influence of medication.
We might need that back once the puzzle is solved.
Valkaiser: @POMA: I can't see it (which is probably why it's there) can you be more specific? The paws at the ends at least point in opposite directions.
Valkaiser: I spent a bit more than 10 seconds developing a workaround for the booru's ham-handed treatment of SVGs :P. They should scale to fit the layout width now :3.
