Community Event Thread (on/off-site) frieren Moderator 12/25/2025 (Thu) 02:21:27 No. 1078 [Reply]
This thread is intended to give both hikarin and people from other sites a place to organize or advertise community events. 39chan meetup? Post it here! Kissu movie night? Post it here! Hosting a cross-site game event? Post it here! Anybody is welcome to advertise their event here, but NO other forms of advertising are permitted. You can NOT advertise your SITE, but you CAN advertise a community event ON your site. Ya dig?

>>1079 To clarify, this is an image/textboard/IRC-wide event and gikopoi also has its own community that hangs out there daily. It's a good chance to interact with lots of different dorks from different backgrounds (with a general shared interest that you would expect). You may want to go to the website now to make yourself familiar with it, although it's quite simple.

SITE REWRITE THREAD Anonymous Moderator 05/21/2025 (Wed) 19:48:42 No. 849 [Reply]
ohayou hikarins! as you can tell, the site rewrite is live! isn't it great? the dev team put lots of work and lots of love into this project so let's be sure to give them our thanks. in this thread, please report any issues, bugs, comments, questions, or concerns regarding the new site. i will also take the time to highlight some of the major changes and additions since Syrno is a lazy fuck refrained from doing so in the announcement. note that the rules have been updated, so be sure to give them another read. New Additions: - new imageboard software! as stated in the announcement, Hikari3 has changed from using Lynxchan to Koshi, a new imageboard software made in-house. the source code can be found here: https://github.com/hikari3-ch/koshi (that is, once the repo is made public). this in itself comes with many improvements, especially under the hood. i'm just a janny so i'm not qualified to list them all, but i can assure you Koshi is pretty great. - new and improved homepage! the homepage has been updated with a few new features. the new layout includes a new Featured Threads section, which is pretty self explanatory. hand-picked by (usually) Syrno. at the bottom, there is also an Other Threads section, which will randomly select threads from the SFW boards to showcase. 素敵ですね? - new 2D Ero board! a new board has been added for 2D ero images, aka hentai. please be sure to read the rules. note that posts made on this board do not appear in the Latest Posts or Other Threads section on the homepage. this board has been added in place of the Oekaki board, but don't worry! the ability to create your own masterpieces lives on. i'll talk about this later. - board statistics! https://files.catbox.moe/ewber2.PNG you can now check the board statistics, a panel that shows activity for each board. this can be found through the button directly to the left of the "Submit a Thread" button on the sidebar. - upgraded posting!

Howdy. I would like to update you guys on some recent changes to the site on behalf of Syrno and Co. New Boards /aca/ - Academic Topics has been relisted after 2 years! Use this board to discuss academic topics such as science, mathematics, art, culture, history, literature, etc, but please be mindful of Rule 7. If your post is political but related to the thread topic it may be allowed, but tread carefully. /dis/ - Discussion is a new textboard intended for longer, more serious discussion. Shitposting will likely be removed to maintain board intention. Discuss in length, vent your worries, but keep it cordial! New Themes There are a handful of new themes to try out, inspired by other sites and boards. Ayashii, Hachune Dark, and Wapanese. Give em a try! Also, there is an option to disable the festive CSS under the "Other" tab in site settings if you aren't feeling festive. Beyond that, we are looking to host a Hikarismas GOG/Steam key giveaway for all the good little hikarins so keep an eye out for that as Christmas approaches. Thank you for your continued support!

Banner Thread syrno!!zmOAdD Admin 11/25/2023 (Sat) 11:33:38 No. 343 [Reply] [Last]
Banner Contest Details: hikari3 is currently in need of better banners. We are accepting submissions in this thread. If we like you're banner, we'll put it up Requirements: 1. 600x200 is preferable, but anything works as long as its in that ratio. 2. Should be anime/Japan/otaku culture related in some way. 3. MUST LOOK GOOD!! just generally visually appealing Also, don't make it board specific, these banners are global.

New Software Suggestions arithefirst!!KVmldb Global volunteer 01/20/2025 (Mon) 06:05:54 No. 656 [Reply]
Hello everyone! I'm arithefirst, nice to meet you. I'm the new developer at hikari3. I've been working with the staff for about 4 months. If you saw the news post, you will know about the new software we're working on. Here, you can add suggestions and feature requests you'd like to see for the new image board software.

can you make the pages reload while using hikari on a phone please?
>>
>>656 can you add a file name randomizer?
>>
>>1074 i agree i would like a file name stripping feature. the old site did have one.
>>
>>1075 Is there any reason why the filenames would matter? If you want them to be different just rename the file itself.
>>
>>1076 It'd be a lot easier to post images on the site with a randomizer, without it manually renaming it takes a bit more time. Really cool feature

I think it's safe to say that all the Comfy Posters are gone. I haven't seen them in so long

>>792 naruhodo, i suppose that is true. might be something to consider after the site rewrite is up.
>>
>>793 Also, heyuri's wiki has stuff about normal imageboard culture to catch people up to speed. That could interesting too, writing from a hukari3 perspective.
>>
>>794 what are your thoughts on continuing this project?
>>
>>875 that would be a question for Syrno. although i will say when i brought it up last time there wasn't a whole lot of interest. i think the consensus was there isn't enough site history or specific h3 culture to justify it yet. a wiki would be for things one couldn't gleam from just lurking (as all new hikarins should do).
