Arrangement of anime titles?

Post by Keropi »

How do you list anime titles in your Rubberslug or non-Rubberslug gallery?

Do you combine different season names of the same basic title or do you list them separately from each other?

Maybe the different anime seasons have artwork so different from each other that you don't want to mix the artwork from the seasons together?

Mine are broken down in alphabetical order with certain sub groups of series where I have a lot of cels or sketches.

I tend to give a series it's own section if I have more than 3 cels from it otherwise they are in my Misc. section

Both, depending on how different I feel that they are. Fushigi Yuugi isn't that different, whereas Dragonball is. Although I am probably guilty of lumping too much stuff together in a category :?

Everything is in alphabetical order, and if I have too much of something (like my Pokemon sketches) I give it it's own section so things won't be overwhelming.

I do also have a Misc. section for series I don't plan to continue to collect from. I might move series I have 2 cels or less of to there to make things cleaner, but probably only the ones I don't feel like "highlighting" (ie. commands more attention and shows up in "search"). Not sure :?

So far, I've been grouping them together...partially because I didn't bother searching to find out what season/series they are from.

What he said :) ^

I've broken out a few sub-groups and want to do a few more, but basically I'm just too lazy. And, well... random shots of Zelgadis do tend to look pretty alike! ;)

All my things are grouped together by series Title. But if I ever update, I might start doing (title-character) groups for the one that I have the most of.

I group everything by title, regardless of season, except for Fushigi Yuugi and Vampire Hunter D. If I have just one of a piece, it goes into the Misc cel/sketch sections, as applicable.

EDIT: Oh oh, I forget Escaflowne, I broke that up recently (sorry Esca sections!) Er, Kyo Kara Maou is separated too. Man my memory is shot... :l

Everything's grouped by title for me, too. I've been considering breaking up my three biggests sections, though (Ranma, Esca, and DDD . . . and if kymaera has anything to say about it, Gokudo will join that list soon :x ). If I do, though, it will be by character rather than season/series/story arc. None of my major categories would break up very well the latter way. X|

Everything is grouped by title for me. :) I have some of my bigger series broken out with characters though like Inuyasha and CCS. Those sections just got way too big. And since I hate paging through numerous pages on other people's galleries, it only made sense for me to thin them out. The cels are then listed by episode order in their various sections. :wink:

If I have only 1 - 2 cels from a show, it goes under my miscellaneous section. Once I have 3 cels from a show, it gets placed in alphabetical order on the cels list.

I have broken up my Fushigi Yuugi cels (OVA vs TV), my Mirage of Blaze backgrounds (by episode) and my Inu Yasha backgrounds (by movie). I did it mainly because it they were starting to get large and awkward. The MOB bgs number over 150.

I also separate my sketch section by both show and type of sketch (settings, dougas/gengas and images (unknown/other). I do this mainly because there's such a variety of production art that can be categorized under sketches. I didn't want to waste someone's time with settings if they were only interested in gengas or vice versa.

The alphabetical arrangement suits me, although I think it's more fun visiting galleries that order their collection by theme/Character designer/Director etc.

If I felt more creative and had a dedicated cel website [apart from RS], I'd order them how I store my cels in real life- by series, but also clumped in groups depending on how many I have and how much I like the series.
It's a strange system but I can actually find everything quite easily.

i don't collect series, but as an "outside" visitor, it makes it really easy for me to navigate galleries that are organized by episodes. i love looking at anime cels and artwork, even if they are from series i don't watch regularly. so it helps me to follow the story and appreciate the artwork more if there are comments and a good sense of organization in the gallery.
