  1. anyone managed to upload a cover photo yet, and if so, how did you bypass the ridiculous size requirement?

         I was concerned from the first one that green wouldn't work very well for fur-hair (darn pity that isn't a natural hair color!) but it really worked better in later pages. Think darker green works pretty well, not on the ears though. Aren't ears part of the skin too? Not too sure about the white tip on the tail. Reminds me of ice cream, but alot of things do. That's a thing fox tails do though naturally, isn't it?  I'll have to do research why sometime. Your style seems to vary significantly from pic to pic and with it,  the nature of the character in my opinion. Like, one seemed more muscular & sporty than the others, but that likely varies on audience perception.

         Cute! ... wait, not what I came here to ask!

        So how's the cropping/resizing of images work? That a thing anyone can do? Would seem so if they're forcing that restriction on us... but! What I've found is that banners work quite well for cover photos too! Though from the looks of it, animated ones have bigger "file sizes" which don't work & fit in there.

      @Lunar Echo I've been drawing for a very long time. I even do commissions at this point :>

      @Widdershins my mascot has been one of my subjects all through it since her creation. I draw for a very long time and my style evolved, so she also got affected all through it. Her ears are green because her fox form is green. Also she is designed with the common red fox in mind so yeah, white tail tip, white muzzle and black feet. ^^ juniper-fox-happiest-instagram-9.jpg

      Cropping/resizing can be done in simple programs, such as Irfan View, or in any paint simulator (Photoshop, Clip Studio Pait, Gimp, etc). The delicate tweaks such as image quality (which affects mb size as well) can be more efficiently done in more advanced programs such as Photoshop, but all painting software has a few basic ways to edit the image quality (PNG is better than JPG but bigger, 72px/inch is less quality than 300 but will take less space, etc)
