The voting for the February contest has begun, due to a bit of a delayed start, the voting will go until the 2nd. So head over to the contest page and vote for your top three!

Just a bit of an update, if you haven’t already noticed the Updates Sidebar found to the left of this post has been reset. Due to the sporadic (and rushed) updates, it has not been the most accurate as of late. So, between Ashley and me, we started over and made sure all the numbers of the total gallery posts have been correctly counted and displayed and the idea is that it will remain that way from here on out. We hope this doesn’t bother those who submitted captions recently and were just placed onto the side-bar, and in future there will be 5 separate updates along the sidebar as it was in the past.

Also to ensure that there will be more frequent updates we are welcoming another moderator to the website so we can more evenly distribute the work load and have newer content uploaded sooner. A win-win for everyone.

On another note, don’t forget to take a look at the February Contest going on now! There have been a handful of submissions and it’s looking to be a great month, submit your entries soon.

Happy Valentine’s Day all!

I know its a bit late in the month, but I figured we might as well go for it. So February’s contest is now out, head to the contest page for details and happy capping!

Head to the contest page and vote now! and since I didn’t want to make people choose, you can choose your favorite 3 and vote for them :)

The first contest is now going, so get out you spell books and get to work. Rules and reward info can be found HERE and to encourage everyone who is entering to read it I’ve hidden a link on the page somewhere to something fun just for you all!

The gallery now has a new view… that I didn’t do. It seems to only happen on some computers but instead of the regular image page it brings up a pop out image that doesn’t show the comments or anything like that. I’m currently trying to find out how to fix the issue to return it to the old way, in the mean time, just click the permalink button to go to the regular gallery view.

EDIT: According to this, its a “new” feature that there currently isn’t anyway to opt out of, sorry about if this causes any problems for anyone, hopefully they’ll have a way to turn it off soon. Until then, just use that permalink button to go to the regular gallery view.

So two quick things. The first one is obvious, the theme is back to regular, hope you all enjoyed the Halloween fun. And the second thing is something I have been meaning to get to. As I’m sure many have the submitters have noticed, there has been a major lacking of featured caps, and the reason for that is that I want the viewers to choose which ones get featured and then once I week I feature them. I’m still working on how to make it all work but please stand by, I don’t want the new people to feel left out that they haven’t gotten featured.

So I just want to say sorry to everyone that has sent in caps and they haven’t been uploaded yet. Milo and I have been both extremely busy and have gotten a bit behind but I am currently working on uploading them and will try to get up as many as I can. Plus I have been working on another project that Milo doesn’t even know about yet. Again, super sorry to everyone who has submitted, and to everyone else, expect a flood of caps in the following few days.

Update: I managed to update all the galleries and all new caps are in there, if you sent in caps and they still aren’t in your gallery make sure to contact me!

I’ve made a tutorial for you guys on how to make a moving (gif) cap. You can find it HERE along with the other tutorials. Happy capping! If you have any questions at all, feel free to post ‘em in the comments, I’m here to help!

This current tutorial is how to do it in Photoshop, but I know that not everyone has that program so I will make one for GIMP here as soon as I get the chance.

I apologize to everyone, there was a small mistake with the e-mail address both in my comment and at the top of the ? ~ Captioning Tutorials page. If you sent anything to the yahoo e-mail address, Ashley or myself wouldn’t have received any submissions. I apologize for the mistake if you did happen to e-mail the @yahoo, please resend the email to submitted.caps@gmail.com and we will have those posted for you right away! Sorry for any inconveniences.

So I’m sure quite a few people will notice that on the left side of the site, it says there are now two Moderators. I have brought another on and have begun training them. I will still be the full blown admin, but ✧Milo✧ will have the ability to do all the important stuff. This site isn’t about me like it used to be, so there is no reason to that I should have to do everything around my schedule. This way, submitted caps can get posted faster and we can have more featured caps, not to mention working together to come up with new things for the site to improve it. I want to make this the best place for the community as possible. This also means that not everything on the front page will be posted my me. So if your ever wondering who posted it, check under the title and the author name is right there. He been around a long time and a lot of you already know him, just under a different name. So everyone say hello to ✧Milo✧
