Digital illustration of a white tiger in pastel colors. It’s colored like the transgender flag, having blue and pink stripes and pink eyes. The tiger is surrounded by peonies in subtle shades of pink and blue, and is depicted on a gray background.

I've been adding alt text to my finished art and work updates for a long while. These are some guidelines I've set for myself that may help others!

Also I want to mention! Lexikitty has a cool video about blind people tech: youtu.be/hBoeoIqtI1I - mild volume warning for the first ~20 seconds
Image is a text-heavy graphic over a mint green backdrop. The text reads: Alt Text Tips, part one of two. November 2024. The following are things to focus on / include in alt text. Include any text in the image. For example: "image text reads: (insert text)", or simply write out the image text. Use effective descriptions to save text space while still conveying the tone. Examples: an excited anthropomorphic wolf, a solemn expanse of blue sky, a relaxed person seated next to a calm lake. Describe the essentials. If the image is of a person / character, what are they doing (holding an object, sitting, etc?). what is their overall mood (lively, melancholic?). what are they wearing (a warm hoodie with stylish techwear accessories?). if the image is of a thing, place, or person, what is the setting (a grassy plain with a far-off wall of mountains, the interior of a house, a yellow background?). what emotion does the setting convey (a whimsical field of flowers, a lonely cliff above a restless sea?). what colours are being used (a vibrant green jungle, a dusty beige stack of envelopes?). Punctuation is Important. Be sure to spell check and properly punctuate your text. Screen readers will not insert forgotten periods, and may not interpret text emojis. Know your character limits. Different sites have different character limits for alt text. Bluesky: 2000. Instagram: No Limit. Mastodon: 1500. Tumblr: 4096. Twitter: 1000. the following sites have no integrated alt text option at the time of this post: Artfol, Cara, DeviantART, FurAffinity, Inkblot, Pillowfort, Sheezy, Toyhouse. if your alt text is heavy (such as this graphic) and exceeds the character limit, split your graphic into multiple images or link to an offsite post or document that includes the entire text. Image is a text-heavy graphic over a mint green backdrop. The text reads: Alt Text Tips, part two of two. November 2024. The following are things to avoid in alt text. Emojis, URLs, Formatted Text, and Excessive Hashtags. Keep your text plain; screen readers cannot read fancy fonts. No emojis; screen readers read out each emoji individually. Keep links in the post body. If you must include a URL, keep it short and condensed. Keep hashtags to a minimum (2 -3), add them after the image description. Improper Use of Alt Text. The purpose of the alt text is to describe the image. It should not be used exclusively for signing your name, website, hashtags, or text that is completely unrelated to the image itself. The Hyper-Specifics. Not every detail needs to be included. Keep descriptions short and essential and use descriptive words to bolster it. for example, this: “image is a digitally drawn art piece made in Photoshop in 2024 of a 5' 9” male grey wolf original character belonging to [insert person name]. He is making an angry conflicted expression at the viewer with scrunched eyebrows. He is wearing a black sweater with a slightly lighter grey neckline, with a hoodie on top that is black, purple, and blue. The sleeves are purple with blue cyber patterns running up the sides only and blocky geometric symbols on the outside. They also have patches of a galaxy patterned triangle, a planet with moons orbiting it, a comet, a smiling sun, a satellite, and a solar system.” could be written instead as: “image is a digital drawing of a moody anthropomorphic wolf wearing a dark techwear-style hoodie over a black sweater. his hoodie’s sleeves feature bold futuristic blue and purple graphics and cosmic-themed patches.” If you want to convey that the piece features a character belonging to someone else, such as a commission, you can write “image is a drawing of the client’s character” while keeping the client’s name / link in the post body.

I forgot that I haven't posted my #tutorials / guides here yet! This one covers how I learn anatomy for my #art !

More in the replies!
A sketch overlays a photo of a Roan Antelope. Text on the page reads, "How I learn from Anatomy Studies." A faint Roan Antelope photo is outlined. Text reads, "One of my commons suggestions to artists who are wanting to improve their anatomy is to draw over photos for practice. However, this (in reference to the outlined antelope) is what comes from just saying to look at photos. It's exactly what I suggestion. To draw over it. There isn't much to learn from doing this."

I'll slowly be uploading all of my #art #tutorials here, but for now have my newest one!

This one specifically covers deer/two-toed artiodactyla but can be applied to other animals too. See my replies to this post to see more!
A collection of deer back legs. To the left, The skeletal structure. To the right, the muscles are drawn out and simplified. Text on the image reads, "Skeletal Structure.... Bones and muscles are the bread and butter of anatomy. These shapes can be less noticeable when covered with fur, but without them you have nothing. Below, I’ll show an image of the anatomy, a drawing of it, and how I personally simplify the forms.... Proportions vary based on each species. Keep an eye for different bone lengths and angles." A photo of a deer's back leg. Next to it are drawings simplifying the shapes of the leg. Text reads, "Basics....Laying a pelt over all of your muscles will unfortunately (or fortunately?) mask much of your hard work. This doesn’t stop you from exaggerating them though!.....I try to avoid using actual circles for joints. I’ll instead overlap the shown sections like a paper doll. Once my base shapes have been made, I will usually draw diamonds or triagles to more accurately represent the joints. Draw shapes with the understanding that they’re wrong and will be fixed. Life isn’t all perfect ovals. Try to include thickness and variances in your forms!.....The way someone may simplify the form may differ from the Actual way they sketch the form in their art. How you eventually do it may/should differ!"

Spent an hour on some illustration concepts for jaquiri on patreon! They'd been thumbnailed in a previous stream but now we start to get into the nitty gritty.
A greyscale sketch of two flying birds in a tarot-style illustration. One raven holds a fish for the other, who is reaching to grab it. A greyscale sketch of two flying birds in a tarot-style illustration. Both birds are holding each other's feet as they cartwheel towards the ground in the manner of eagles.

7 reasons why The Thing (1982) is a Christmas film:
1) snow
2) bearded men concealing surprises
3) compulsory party games
4) introverts shunning group activities
5) digestive issues
6) revellers bursting open to reveal partially assimilated canine lifeforms
7) knitwear
