#image ids

[prokopetz]

Sometimes folks who take it upon themselves to provide image IDs for other people's posts end up demonstrating oddly specific knowledge. Like, you'll see an image depicting (among other things) a bearded man in a nondescript black robe, and then the followup reblog is like "ID: a deacon of the Latvian Orthodox Church [...]" like, getting the denomination and rank is impressive enough, but the jurisdiction as well? Now we're just showing off. I love it.

Could you analyse François Arnaud kibbe ID???

his face had dramatic classic vibes to me at first, but his 6'2 height puts him into the yang body types.

obvious vertical, so tall. that's why he wears elongated coats and sweaters with less flexible fabrics so well. leather-like jackets, too.

classic clothes and sharper lines don't sit right on arnaud. shoulders, sleeves, pants, nothing sticks, not a balanced ID. a classic type man would have this suit glued to their silhouette and shine in this.

compare cillian murphy - who is less wide and tall aka doesn't have to accommodate the torso/shoulder span or long limbs - he belongs to the classic family, pinstripes and tailoring are exactly his thing.

hence, my rule :: IF YOU WEAR CLOTHES OUTSIDE YOUR KIBBE LINES, THEY SIGNAL THE CHARACTERISTIC OF YOUR TYPE. e.g. myself as a dramatic, when i wear C clothes, they're too short -> i am elongated -> sharp yang. the "against or for the silhouette" effect.

keira knightley in a natural coat as an example. the sleeves hide her hands. the garment is made for kibbe width and a more powerful, less angular physique. -> she is narrow dominant.

so, when francois wears DC, he needs to choose wide shoulders and loose flared pant cuts to even fit into a tuxedo's uppermost part especially -> soft yang dominant! kibbe width alert.

magically, flamboyant natural clothes without the heavy tailoring aspect do it for him. textured fabrics are fantastic on FN men. that image ID might as well live in winter clothes 😅 because that's where the fabrics with substance are.

as cesare borgia, he portrays a soft dramatic (big, curly, controlled hair = always SD). it's a character, but not "him". too constructed, too much decor. francois doesn't have any yin, that's why it looks so theatrical. it doesn't quite match his face and the outfit we see first.

interestingly, connor is the one who portrays a flamboyant natural type in the series, but he's suited better by sharper dramatic clothes. connor probably had to work out like crazy to get a more width-based physique. ilya is introduced right away in N type clothing, even. hoodie, beanie, tone in tone, the classics.

but where jeans, fluffy hair, and knitwear look casual, cute, and homely on connor, like it does on all kibbe types that aren't naturals:

...it looks high fashion on francois. those cozy fabrics just read as so cool and defined on FN types. (just a bit of D undercurrent sharpness missing, this outfit is pure natural, not FN)

and that's how you spot the FNs! very common type among actors. probably because they stick out a lot, very hard to overlook. that's why it's also refreshing to see a soft yin man like hudson being cast (rare thing in hollywood), to keep the balance!

keira knightley wearing her lines bonus:

[ID: A 2-panel comic. The first panel shows two buttons directly next to each other, with a hand tentatively hovering between them. The first button reads, "Getting diagnosed to receive necessary accommodations and treatments to improve my QOL." (QOL meaning Quality of Life). The second button reads, "Remaining undiagnosed and deteriorating to avoid risking the loss of my rights at any moment under 47." The second panel shows the man to whom the hand is attached, sweating and dabbing at his head nervously with a cloth. He is labeled "Disabled person who knows what they have and just needs it put on paper." End ID]

adding this to the quote documents boys.

[Image ID: a screenshot of text that says "I don't need a voice of reason, I need somewhere to Scream at the top of my lungs. If it didn't hurt so fuckung much." Arthur Lester, Malevolent podcast by Harlan Girthe, part 51 52:01. End image ID]

Use alt text on your dividers, on your dni banners, on every image you post. Create image IDs when you are able, or AT LEAST tag as undescribed.

Your alt text for your dni banner can literally just be the text on the banner. For a divider it could be "Row of white hearts and bows." For your images you just describe the important bits of the image.

It's really not that hard and it's a failure to members of our community who have low vision, who get overwhelmed by images, who rely on screen readers for whatever reason.

TLDR : use alt text because you are failing members of our community
