A Couple of Questions...

Hey Mew! I'll try my best to help out:

1) Everyone has their own way. I believe most people use resource sites (so websites that have portfolios of models/actors/etc). People can also find FCs through shows they watch, videos they browse through when using youtube (we have a few of those here). There are so many different places/ways to find face claims that it's really difficult to explain one. If you have a method that works for you, great! If you've hit a speed bump, you are more than welcome to ask for help; anyone who helps will work with you to find the closest/best FC for the character you have in mind.

2) This one is a little out of my league as I'm not in charge of those, but I believe a non-claim is subbed in for them? Again, I don't really know what they do do if this is the case. Also, the faces at the top of the page is relatively new (started 2-3 Games?), so having one at the top of the page wasn't really an issue until recently. I believe for the recap vid, Lulu would use some non-claim; she or anyone can correct me on that.

3) Depends. If you want to leave the thread open, you are more than welcome to keep the open tag there. Most people won't jump into a thread if someone else has already responded; they might do an OOC request either as a reply to that thread or in a private message, but most likely they just won't attempt to jump in. If you don't want to leave any room for misinterpretation, you can change the thread to closed by adding the person's name. Again, it is up to you, but I haven't heard of many occurrences of people jumping into open threads once someone else has responded.


Phew, sorry about the incomplete answer for #2. Hopefully the other two questions were answered completely, though. Feel free to ask any follow-up questions! =)

Ahhh, I don't think I use the same resource sites as others here, but I like going to IMDB.com. Sometimes I also just look up people by nationality/age/gender (e.g. American actors under thirty). I know there's a pretty popular model portfolios site that other members use, but I seem to have forgotten the name.

Another popular one that I haven't used in a while but was really handy when I first started was Teen Idols 4 You.
