New name for the combined Artist+Prompter tag.

Hello Everypony,

If you haven’t read already, a few months ago i made a thread asking for opinions about a possible change in the creator tags.
After consulting both the community and the staff of Tantabus a slight majority was for combining the Artist: & Prompter: tags into one unified creator tag while keeping the editor: tag separate.
But now comes the point, what will we call this new unified creator tag?

A few examples that we heard in the previous thread:
Prompter:
Creator:
Director:
By:
Producer:

We would love to hear your opinion what the name will be for the new creator tag that will replace the Artist: and Prompter: tags.
P.S: The Editor: tag will remain a separate tag.

I supported by: because I hoped it would encompass artist:, prompter:, editor:, voice actor:, etc. Guess I’ll continue to use *:username.

If it only combines artist: and prompter:, then I’d lean towards those other options to keep by: free for the future. Alternatively, if by: gets picked, then the all-encompassing tag could be input:.

I would say creator or director would make a good choice, as I understand it some other sites use director.

To note that in this case editor would be repurposed towards someone that edits someone else’s image, ala how it originally was on derpi; basically it’d separate “who made the image originally” from “who made changes to their image” on images tagged edit.

author: feels best to me

I personally would go with author too. It encompasses that, at this point in time, genning is more writing than drawing. (At least in most cases.). But it also shows that you are part of the creative process. Best of both worlds. director is in the same boat, just not a writing analogy, but a movie one. Creator is also a good second choice.

I lean towards “creator” or “director”.

I would choose creator. Because we make creations, he

I like creator: and author:.

I understand. It’s just that “editing” in the context of AI art can easily mean pretty substantial changes.
