Figure Community

A few updates on Figure.fm while we take a look at the most cutesome Taiga Aisaka Puchi Nendoroid Sukumizu version.
Later this week, all registered users on figure.fm will be able to post photos - these are folks who have registered for more than 3 weeks ago on DC. I will also open registrations at figure.fm and there will be a lower hurdle of 20 comments and a week before one can post.
There are a few lurking admins who should be able to nuke the trolls without them causing too much damage.
Also, folks wonder when and why to post on figure.fm. Well if you post a series of figure photos on DC then you will get complaints - not from me but from the community in general. At Figure.fm, you can post as much as you want.
If you are posting some photos of figma Mikuru for example, use the multi-image upload feature to put all her photos in one post. If you are posting many different figure photos however, I suggest using a separate post for each figure.
Another reason why you may want to post on figure.fm is that I will be choosing your goodsmile/max factory related posts and posting them on the official Good Smile English Blog - I posted one this morning from member katana's blog here. I will only be choosing stuff that you post on figure.fm ^o^
Another reason why you may like to post on figure.fm is because all the figure related giveaways from now will take place on figure.fm - The first giveaway will be 1070 USD and take place *this week*
I forgot to mention the other reason why you may want to post at figure.fm. One of my goals with figure.fm is to involve you with the figure makers that I work with - namely Good Smile and Kotobukiya for now. I want them to work directly with you too and by profiling your figure shoots on figure.fm, they will take notice which may lead to interesting opportunities.
Also, DC has a wide variety of users with different interests. Many folks who enjoy the photo walks and Japan news for example are not into figures. I will be posting more figure and Dollfie related stuff on figure.fm instead. Will still do figure stuff on DC but will keep a balance.
