Visible character limit tracker.

[Tsukishima Tsukishima]

Hello, I received a lot of stress today when trying to make my regular artpost / profile post about Folklore

The images that apparently bloat up character text, or maybe it's because I'm using too much glitter and glam to make it more fun to read, to make the text pop at you to grip the viewer who looks at the game I'm giving appreciation for, i'm not sure if that actually adds up character text too. You know, doing stuff like this.

I kept getting "Oops, we ran into some problems. This is exceeding the character limit" when I barely even wrote a total sentence to give flavour to the post.

So I was wondering if something could be made to either help me understand when the post is 'at the character limit'. I'm sure it all sounds rather silly, but images carrying legions of characters inside them doesn't even make sense half the time, making an artpost for Pikmin is going to be impossible at this rate ... !

Definitely agree with something like this being implemented if it can be done. I had some similar trouble last night when I was making my profile post about Hakaider.

We used to have one but it was buggy so Spike had to remove it.

That's too bad, hopefully there's a not-buggy one..?
