how do i register my name?
This is the life!

You can't. The only way you can differentiate yourself from everybody else who wants to call themselves Kitty is by adding a tripcode to your name. To be honest, it's unnecessary. We'll only remember your online persona if you're a prolific poster (on my idlechan?) or you manage to annoy everybody. You'll discover soon enough that staying anonymous is liberating and your desire to have a name is merely a habit ingrained by all those sites that force you to register.
To keep things on topic. Image of the day is http://secchan.net/niche/src/1173878293790.jpg
A nice image featuring three NPCs that tutor new players in the secrets of the Korean MMO game Mabinogi - Fantasy Life. Pan the ram is one of the NPCs. Lorna (or Rona) is the girl with the blue hat. If you went by the amount of fan art you would think Nao in the slinky black dress was the Queen of Mabinogi. Game tutorial videos featuring the characters can be found on Youtube, like this one - http://youtube.com/watch?v=ZoXyHzxcadY
Can you handle this much garness?

Arthur said brightly: "Actually I quite liked it."
Ford turned and gaped. Here was an approach that had quite simply not occurred to him.
The Vogon raised a surprised eyebrow that effectively obscured his nose and was therefore no bad thing.
"Oh good ..." he whirred, in considerable astonishment.
"Oh yes," said Arthur, "I thought that some of the metaphysical imagery was really particularly effective."
Ford continued to stare at him, slowly organizing his thoughts around this totally new concept. Were they really going to be able to bareface their way out of this?
"Yes, do continue ..." invited the Vogon.
"Oh ... and er ... interesting rhythmic devices too," continued Arthur, "which seemed to counterpoint the ... er ... er ..." He floundered.
Ford leaped to his rescue, hazarding "counterpoint the surrealism of the underlying metaphor of the ... er ..." He floundered too, but Arthur was ready again.
"... humanity of the ..."
"Vogonity," Ford hissed at him.
"Ah yes, Vogonity (sorry) of the poet's compassionate soul," Arthur felt he was on a home stretch now, "which contrives through the medium of the verse structure to sublimate this, transcend that, and come to terms with the fundamental dichotomies of the other," (he was reaching a triumphant crescendo ...) "and one is left with a profound and vivid insight into ... into ... er ..." (... which suddenly gave out on him.) Ford leaped in with the coup de gr@ce:
"Into whatever it was the poem was about!" he yelled. Out of the corner of his mouth: "Well done, Arthur, that was very good."
yup.. all it needs now is... nope.
nevermind.

Beautiful tears of blood I see.
Why does the Wakachan frontpage say discuss the current and future image of the day? We can't vote (?) so are we supposed to guess the next one?
You know, I wouldn't get upset if someone would occasionally nominate a picture to be the IotD.

I hesitate to put up something I don't understand. Can someone in the know confirm whether it's deserving?
Sata Andagi might sound like a computer component but it's an Okinawan treat. Osaka utters it while munching on them during the school trip. But even though I get the joke I don't really consider it a good IotD candidate. Besides, those Churuya parodies have become a bit of a stale meme.

The alt attibute of the iotd is often used as a caption, but it isn't diplayed in most browsers, it should be in the title attibute too to be displayed everywhere.

I feel an obligation to bring up a 'choking the chicken' reference, but I just can't bring myself to do it.
Regarding the same thing, what is that shape in the top-left, an artist's logo or something? Anonymous is intrigued. Source etc?
Looks like a mouse. Or more likely, a kanji character.
the big curving line definitely ain't no kanji. SOURCE PLS
No, it's a stylized 酉 (tori) which means bird. In this case it's short for 酉年 (toridoshi) which means Year of the Cock (or Rooster, but that doesn't sound as funny). The picture is in other words a New Year's greeting for 2005. I can't remember the site, which is hardly surprising since Properties tells me I downloaded it in March this year. Finally, if anybody wonders who the girl is, it's Ru from ToHeart2. Alien greeting, if you know what I mean.
Meh, I've stayed up for far too long. Natti natti.

That's funny, because if you squint, it even kinda looks a little bit like a cock.
Very informative post, much unlike this one.

wow.. today's image from http://secchan.net/4koma/kareha.pl/1175116782/l50 is awesome. Someone needs to translate the Planetarian 4koma! Isn't someone in /key/ interested in this project?
I wouldn't hold my breath. The Planetarian 4koma have been up for months and still no takers. It's almost like translators are shunning the board. No doubt they're scared of unleashing a horde of fanbois screaming "Do this too, plox! Just this one, plox!". Maybe the board should run a monthly vote. Whatever thread wins gets ten 4koma translated but absolutely nothing else.
I believe we should have a DaiTrombe as IOTD, because real men overwrite Others' themes.
Hey, today's IotD is lolhueg. I mean, seriously. Think of the children!

No, clearly different settings. Probably different artists too.

Obviously. I meant were they the same subject?
I'm not sure what you're driving at. Subject can mean many things.
The metadata in the pictures show they are from different artists. I doubt there's any connection between the pictures, or to a game or anime. Looks like original art.

We love your suggestions! However, High-res images just don't fit all that well on the main screen of Wakachan. Please keep that in mind when you make your suggestions, 'kay?
Psh. Looks fine on my monitor. :) IIRC dmpk2k doesn't resize them on matter of principle. Makes sense too.

WTF is up with the current IotD? It claims to be from a thread in /WE DEMAND PALESTINE SOLIDARITY/, a board I don't even see listed. Not to mention it's rather political for an IotD--or is that a problem per se?
Israel is made of fuck win.
Fuck the Jews, they're being assholes to the Palestinian people.
Is this hacking?
http://nanoha.chupatz.com/wakaba.html not working and instead i got this 'F*ck Israel'page.
I'm not liking the blatant political propaganda on Wakachan's main page. What're we gonna have tomorrow, a "No Mercy for Terrorists" poster made by the Israeli military? Seriously, if you want a forum for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, then make one. But don't just plaster political messages on the main page, please.

You can always resize it a little bit to make it fit, right?
Ah. That's too bad. It's a shame Wakachan's front page doesn't have some kind of auto-resize algorithm.

so how long have the IOTDs had alt-text? i've never noticed until today!
From the beginning. :)
The beginning of time.
dmpk2k: That's obviously an image from Aria.
I know it's from Aria. The one thing I never liked about the manga -- I've never seen the anime -- is that stupid animal. Everything else resembles reality to some degree, but not that damn whateveritis.
No, it's not cute.
Aria x what? I'm pretty sure that's a crossover. Either that or it's from an artbook.
Also, "it"'s a cat. Quite obviously a cat. It's actually stated in the anime that it's a cat.
> Quite obviously a cat.
Yes, that. It's not obviously a cat at all.
I say it's obviously a fat mutant!
I love this image. The artist has some other good ones in a similar vein. I'm actually kind of surprised such a gory image made the frontpage. I'm almost tempted to suggest an image from /blood/ now. ;P
