    In case there's any confusion. Tumblr has unlimited storage. You don't have to worry about upload limits. The only limit is each individual image can't be larger than 10MB

    Well it took about 2.5 hours but everything is finally tagged

    It should be about 30 mins until the tagging is updated on the tag page. There's a server that queries the blgo every 30 mins and updates the tag page.

    I can't see any of the tags and the tag search doesn't seem to be working for me. Am I doing something dumb? I'm on Chrome by the way.

    Also, if anyone has any good Medieval building images or know of a good resource please post! <3

    Sorry for the delay I didn't realize this was replied to. Do the tags still not work for you on this page?

    http://leveldesigninspirationmachine.tumblr.com/tagsearch

    It seems to work for me. Does it not work for anyone else?

    Eventually I will have to write a server side script to handle this for me because the service I'm using can only handle 5000 posts maximum.

    UPDATE :

    A level designer from Respawn Entertainment by the name of Chuck Wilson has recently started contributing quite a bit to the blog. In fact he just sent me a huge chunk of photos the other night organized into a lot of settings. So combined with the images I've been saving up and his images it looks like we'll be having quite a few series in the near future. I'll also probably up the post-per-day count to 2X from 1X since there's now about 30-40 days of backlog already.

    If anyone has any themes they'd like to see let me know, Some that are coming are :

    Dystopian

    Wartorn

    European

    Bulgaria

    Nope, not as far as I can tell. This is what I see:

    What the crap? There should be a bunch of tags there. Is anyone else having this problem?

    The only thing I can think of offhand is that it uses javascript. Do you have any sort of blockers or anything enabled?

    I have Adblock Plus enabled. Apart from that I don't think I have anything else enabled. I get no Javascript errors coming up either!

    Weird. Maybe it's possibly it's adblock. I use ghostery but I can give adblock a shot. Is anyone else not able to see the tags?

    I would like to write my own system eventually but it would take a fair amount of work. I don't really have the time right at the moment. This summer i can see myself having the time to do it. What I can do in the future is also write a static page with all the tags that are known once there begins to be so many that new ones dont show up as much.

    I tried disabling Adblock Plus and it made no difference. I'll try again tonight when I get home. I'm pretty sure I tried it there too and got the same results.

    Over the next week there's a series of photos I took in Okinawa going up. That is a really funky looking city. It's like a combination of the future with a mexican resort town and America.

    Hey everyone. I've been accumulating a lot of photos from my last 2 trips to Japan as well as some local industrial stuff and have enough content for daily posts to cover the rest of the year so there will be a lot of new original (and some reblogs) stuff in the near future :)

    Re-posting some of your stuff here, hope you don't mind. The photos are excellent but your thread thus far has not been very visual. Important to remember that "click-throughs" are usually rare, you should probably show people something first.

    Thanks FMPONE I wasn't posting too much here because I was afraid I might be being rude if I constantly bump the thread to the top. That might be the Canadian in me talking haha

    If people don't mind I'll be happy to post more photos in this thread rather than rare updates when I put in new blocks of stuff.
