2.6 Pixiv features
What is the difference between adding user to bookmarks and adding him to friends list (MyPixiv)?
The main difference is the setting of visibility of your details and pictures. You may set "Friends Only", and only users from your friends list will be able to see them. Also, you may set writing permission on your Profile Board to friends only, and other users will not be able to write there.
• If you want to be mutual friends with someone, then use "Add to MyPixiv" feature. This requires agreement of user to be friend with you. On this way you must send him a private message.
• If you want just to receive updates from someone without notifying him about this, then add his account in your bookmarks. Also, you can choose "invisible mode" when bookmarking, and and you will not appear in user's list of followers. This way doesn't require sending a message or mutual agreement.
• You may either bookmark user or became friends with him.
What are image responses?
Image response is an image linked to an image of other artist. If a picture has some responses, they appear below it. To make the response from your image, you must check corresponding checkbox when uploading and paste the ID of image you are making response in field below the box (These fields are translated in second part of "Upload Picture"). Image ID you have to paste can be viewed in address bar of your browser when you look on the single picture page: http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=4477305. These numbers at the end of image address is the ID you need.
What are personal tags?
Personal tags are kind of groups Pixiv members could unite in. It helps to find artists drawing on the same subject as you. If you browse Pixiv by tags, you'll see images, if you browse by personal tags, you'll see artists. You can specify personal tags on your Profile edit page.
What are Pixiv Points?
Pixiv Points (PP) are inner Pixiv currency. If you have Premium account, every paid month you receive 2000PP. PP could be transmitted between accounts as the way to compliment an artist (Good Points feature). Also, there are various Pixiv events you may receive PP for. In future, you will be able to use PP to pay for various Pixiv services, and PP could be exchanged to some goods (So Pixiv F.A.Q. says).
What are green notes and question-marks near picture tags?
It is the feature called Pixpedia. Here Pixiv users can add and edit descriptions of tags. For example, the tag is "Vocaloid". You don't know what it is, but are interested to learn more. Pixpedia is place where you can read about it by clicking on the green note near "Vocaloid" tag. If a tag hasn't a description for the time present, then it has question-mark instead of green note.
