It's that time of year again, the time of year where we send Anonymous Compliments! 
This is an event that has been running for over a decade now (!) and shows no signs of slowing. Begun by MESSI and continued by the site staff, Anonymous Compliments is a chance to spread some love across the site.
Using the pre-made templates, we invite you to use whatever software you prefer - photoshop, affinity, paint, gimp, or even an online uploader (directions below) to add some compliments to a site member. *
*If you continue to experience difficulties, even with the options provided, please reach out to any member of site staff to discuss receiving additional assistance.
There's no sign up list - anyone and everyone is encouraged to send in compliments. From now through February 13th EOD EST, we will be accepting compliments to the upload album entitled 'Anonymous Compliments '25.' Then, at some point during Valentine's Day weekend, the compliments will be made live for you to view. The banners can be found in the album! A big thank you to Kiersten for working on it!
Please upload your compliments to the folder marked Anonymous Compliments '25 (within the ooc uploads folder).
Once you have uploaded your image, you will see this message 'Awaiting approval before being displayed publicly.' This is correct! Your image will only be visible to you (and site staff) until they are made public.
Please note: If you upload to a personal folder and then move to the anonymous compliments folder there will be a time that they are visible to all members and may not be anonymous if your recipient sees it.
We look forward to seeing all the compliments roll in!

If you're a mobile user or would simply prefer to create your cards online, you can use LunaPic!
Step 1: Copy one of the image URLs below:
Step 2: Select 'Upload Options', enter the URL into the first field on the next page, and hit 'Go'.
(Note: PC users will see the URL field on the front page.)
Step 3; Select 'Add Text'
Step 4: Add your text and edit to your heart's content! You can drag the text around to move it into position.
Step 5: When you're happy with your card, save the image under the sharing options (you may have to scroll down to find them)
(note this picture was taken before Imgur had its issues)
Step 6: Upload an image to the appropriate anonymous compliments folder. You're done!
