Must Read: Creator
You should read this if you want to create pages
Everything you need to know when creating
1. I want every artist to have freedom in how he/she wants to create a page for the AnatomyArchive. Stay close to the templates, so that all pages are readable, but don't be shy to alter small things.
2. if you are publishing a page, but it is not finished yet -> write this somewhere:
not final
3. turn on shortcuts, it makes your life easier
4. if possible draw on grey background, so that its appealing in both dark and white mode + users wont get flashed in dark mode
5. avoid using/drawing explicit content as much as you can -> I don't want to age restrict the site, if possible
5. picture:
- width should be minimum 350 pixels so that the image fills the whole mobile width -> click on the little image symbol to adjust pixels
- don't make images longer than a 9:16 aspect ratio, so that they are fully visible on mobile without scrolling
- 840 width images are perfect (for horizontal images)
- avoid putting 2 pictures beside each other
Reference Pictures
I figured that if you want to succesfully study anatomy you need as much "real life footage" as you can get, so I wanted to include a little library of pictures at the end of every page. Use the websites/resources below or any other free to use pictures -> try to include many viewpoints, male and female looking bodies, a variety of models that show different characteristics.
Remember to not show completetly nude people, so that everone can use AnatomyArchive.
- use Wikimedia Commons
follow the licence rules for each picture (usually inlcludes citing the name and link); if you need to blur or crop explicit parts of the picture, make sure to include that in the citing, e.g. „This image is altered: cropped“ - use ...
- use ...
not final
