Papa Tak's Format

Hey everybody, just looking around some of the technique lists and noticed that as is normal we all have our own styles of how we set them up. While you are free to set up your technique list in any way you want so long as you have the proper format in the title I have come to realize that there is I am an illiterate pig with no vocabulary a character limit for each post and while I dont know the exact number without looking it up again I just thought I'd let you know it is I am an illiterate pig with no vocabulary there. I came across this problem myself because I have a rather large list of techniques at my disposal and was rather shocked to say the least when I recieved an error saying that I had exceeded the limit and that my post was to big. Note I said shocked not upset because it gave me the opportunity to set things up in a whole new way that seems to be growing in popularity slowly. I have set up all of my jutsu into different posts according to their rank (giving clan techniques, ANBU techniques and summoning contracts their own posts as they are special) and at the head of each post include a .png image I created using photoshop and the ninja naruto font (with the exception of bloodline).

As I said you are free to do as you choose at this point, I am simply saying that it is probably the most efficient way. This is only my opinion though and for those of you who want to use the same format as me I am here to help you out a bit and save you some time, below I will include the images I spoke of as well as some additional notes where they may be needed.

For the bloodline post I perfer putting it first as these are your first techniques and you will never have to edit this post after you finish it the first time (the only exception being if for some reason a complication with your clan comes up and an edit to the techniques themselves is performed). In addition to posting the clan list of techniques I like to include the description of my clan's Kekkei Genkai ability below the image that says kekkei genkai I also like the look of putting my clan's symbol above this image. (if you need to find your clan's symbol just refer to your clan application, no clan is approved without one)

Example of symbol and ability listing:

Some members are not a member of a clan though so you may be asking what I suggest for them, well as one of my alternate characters I have decided to try RPing without being a member of a set clan and thus decided to create new graphics to accommodate. As a clanless shinobi you are subject to what we call a clanless boost except in some very rare cases so 99.99999999% of you will have one, you are required to list this boost officially in your technique list anyway and as it is your replacement for not having a bloodline why not let it go in the same place as the clan list as explained above?

In addition, some people may want to go the extra mile (me being one of them) and create a type of symbol for your ninja that doesnt have a clan. In the show shinobi are known to show symbols like this like Tsunade (though she is a member of the Senju clan officially), she wears the kanji for gamble (賭, kake) on the back of her jacket, though your ninja may not wear their symbol like that or even at all you can still put one there if you can find something not related to a clan's symbol to closely (subject to clan creator's opinion) which can represent you, here is an example:

Claneless Example:

The character Tappaja Saru is a clanless shinobi who took chakra sensory as his clanless boost and is known as a summoner of taijutsu apes, thus he has the sensory ability posted below the clanless techniques image and a vector image of Son Goku (the monkey king) shown above as his personal crest. Keep in mind though that the addition of a symbol is completely optional as is everything in this topic.

Well alright everyone I hope you enjoyed this suggestion topic, as I have said numerous times during this post this is 100% optional and you are not required to use this format nor will we ever require you to do it this way. I simply made this because I noticed a few people had seen it and wanted to use it themselves so now they have easy access to it. Anyway I think that is everything so good bye.
