[Spoon-business] The Gallery

["Orc In A Spacesuit" <orcinaspacesuit@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I came up with this after the comments of people about pictures.

I make the following proposal:

{{__Visualize__

The rest of this proposal shall have no effect if the Administrator 
expresses in a public forum his official disapproval of this proposal within 
1 nweek of its passing, until such a time as the Administrator rescinds said 
disapproval.
[[That way, if you don't like it Dave, you can scrap it without a problem, 
but bring it back later if you like.]]

Create the following rule:
{{__The Gallery__{*(Portrait, Avatar, Minister),1*}

A. Portraits
Each Player (and the Administrator) may, once per nweek, choose a picture 
file to officially represent em in BNomic.  These picture files may be no 
more than 20KB in size, unless the Administrator designates a new limit, in 
which case the designated limit is in effect.  Chosen files must be 
submitted to the Administrator or the Minister in charge of managing 
Portraits (Admin's choice), in a manner chosen by the entity recieving the 
file.  A picture, upon being properly submitted, becomes the Portrait of the 
entity that submitted it.  If an entity already has an Portrait and a new 
one is submitted, the old one is no longer eir Portrait.

B. Avatars
Players (and the Administrator) may have an Avatar.  Avatars of entities are 
chosen by the Curator, unless an entity states that e does not want one. 
[[Of course, people can ask for what they want.]]  An Avatar must be a 
visual representation of its entity (but is not limited to just being a 
visual representation).  In all representations of players deemed 
approptiate, eir Avatars should be used to represent them [[like in a 3D 
grid]].

C. The Curator
C.1 Definition
There exists a Ministry of Art.  The Minister of Art may also be referred to 
as the Curator. [[As in museum/art gallery caretaker]]

C.2 Duties
The Curator and the the Administrator are jointly in charge of Portraits and 
Avatars.
It is eir duty to:
1. Accept chosen Portriat files and select Avatars
2. Make Portraits and Avatars accessible to all Players and the 
Administrator
3. Make the correct steps for submitting Portriats known to all Players, and 
post these steps with Portraits when possible
4. If possible, and when not deemed harmful by the Administrator, Portraits 
and Avatars should be accessible either from the official Roster, or from 
locations where the Roster is also accessible.
5. Unless the owner of a Portrait or Avatar deems otherwise, past Avatars 
and Portraits may be kept accessible along with current ones.
6. The Avatars and Portraits of past players may also be accessible along 
with those of current players.

The Curator and the Administrator may decide between themselves who is 
responsible for what duties (The Curator could take care of all of it but 
accessibility from the Roster, if they so choose).

C.3 Compensation
The Curator is compensated with 1 point nweek for each of the following 
condition e meets that nweek:
1. All the Curator's duties are successfully done (no matter how big or 
small eir contribution)
2. The Administrator doesn't have to do a lot towards the completion of said 
duties, at eir discretion
3. The duties of the Curator were large (whether completed or not), at the 
Administrator's discretion
4. The curator provided hosting for Portraits and Avatars

If the Administrator feels that a condition is worth more points for an 
nweek, e may award additional points e feels appropriate.

D. Removal
An Entity who has a Portrait may rescind it.  E then has no Portrait.
An Entity who has an Avatar may rescind it.  E then has no Avatar.
The Administrator or the Curator may refuse to recognize a Portrait if e 
believes it to be inappropriate or detrimental to the spirit of the game.

[[End rule __The Gallery__; continue proposal __Visualize__]]

Orc In A Spacesuit is the Curator.  At the passing of this proposal, an 
election for the Curator is called, and Orc In A Spacesuit is a Candidate 
for that Ministry in this election. [[I'll be in charge initially, but if 
you like the prop and don't want me to be the Curator, it's easily fixed.]]

}}
[[End of proposal __Visualize__]]

For any who just wanted a summary:  You can have 2 pictures of yourselves, 1 
you choose (and can be whatever you want), and 1 the Curator (new minister) 
chooses, with you getting to say no to the Curator's choices.  I'm the 
Curator at first, and the ones I choose will be the ones in those 3D 
pictures of the Grid that I made.  Both pictures of you will be posted 
publicly, and should be accessible from the Roster (but not on it, for those 
with slow d/l speeds).

Orc In A Spacesuit
is trying to do this right.
