And with her facing forward:

Yeah, I'm planning on changing the angle of her head. Per a suggestion from Redshrike, I'm probably going to remove at least some of the internal outlines, too.

Here's the latest version:

I worked some more on the colors.  Here is a (non-animated) test of her costume.

Tried it with my fantasy palette.

Here's a test of a 6 frame run cycle, based (loosely) on the above Sakura sprite.

So, a couple of things, just so people know what's going on:

  • I have a number of spam countermeasures already in place.  If it weren't for those, the spam would be literally constant.  There would be significantly more spam posts than legitimate ones.
  • We had a spam filter, but it had too many false positives and drove people crazy.  The occasional mass post while the mods are asleep (literally, in this case) is honestly preferable.
  • I can't just filter based on whether someone is posting links, because most of the time people who are posting links are perfectly legitimate.
  • I have a keyword filter in place, but in cases where someone is posting in Korean, I don't know the language and I'm not sure what would be a good keyword to filter on.  It's too late now because I already deleted the posts, but maybe next time I'll ask if there are any Korean speakers who can identify a good keyword to filter on so as to block those particular posts without blocking legitimate posters.

I think the best thing to do will be to limit accounts that are less than a day old to, say, two or three posts an hour, although even that is a pretty major annoyance for legitimate users.

Regular users can help with this.  If enough people flag a post as spam in a certain amount of time, the post will be unpublished automatically.  I don't want to be too specific about how this works, because I don't trolls gaming the system, but definitely flag spam when you see it.

I've been poking around for examples of run cycles to use as a reference, and I stumbled on this:

I think I'm going to use those Sakura run frames as a reference point, although it's probably going to be challenging, since the Sakura's legs are freakishly long and the aspect ratio looks weird, like it's been compressed vertically a bit.

Had a bit of a chance to work on this today.  I tweaked her pose a bit and changed her skirt and socks to match the current comics.

Hey, just wanted to let you know that I really like this! :)
