Description
PLEASE VIEW THIS BEFORE MAKING YOUR FAN CHARACTER!A simple ref on what I keep in mind when I design these characters. I put rules for myself, so I wouldn't go overboard with the designs.
Forgot to add this! -The shades of gray in the model means: The darker the parts, the more important they are on the body. And the lighter they are, less important. (Meaning, the fingers on a Control aren't obligatory for a Control to function.)
-Controls do not have families. No parents, siblings etc..
-They can get clothes if they want.
-There can be only one sort of Control in each system. But since there are several systems, there can be more of the same sort of Controls. (Example, my concept is my system, but your fan characters live in YOUR system.)
-When a Control dies too many times,(usually after 5-8 times) they become a BUG. This varies with Controls though.
-If they die too many times, they become a bug. Every time a Control dies, they lose a piece of their memory. The more they die, the less they remember. So in the end, when they become a bug, they want to steal other Control's memories to replace what they lost.
-Controls can't feel any sexual desire or have sex, since they don't need to reproduce.
-Controls can, however, gain a deep bond with other Controls who they can trust.
If you have any questions, please ask! But I must say that this concept is still under development, so I will probably not have answers for everything yet.
:bulletred:Since people asked, yes you are allowed to make your own Control. But as long as you credit me for the original concept!
Please call your character a fan character (FC), not an original character (OC). Yes, there can be several designs of the same Control, just as long as they don't look like each other. (like in Steven Universe. These are no gemsonas.)PLEASE DON'T MAKE VIRUS FAN CHARACTERS, AT LEAST NOT YETRelated content

Would you consider 4 - 6 eyes to be too many? What would you suggest be too many eyes? o:
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Over 8 would be too many. But it really depends on the character.

Still feel kinda bad tho... since I made a virus everyone else joined in on the Virus-Bandwagon.
man I'm so sorry if I had known I wouldn't have made CC or Mel and just waited.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
question, would we also be able to make a virus? edit: if i can't make one / its restricted / whatever reason (completely fine!) you should check out the virus ILOVEYOU. i thought it would be interesting :3c
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I would prefer for people not to make viruses before I have made them a ref. Viruses are meant to be be different from the media control design rules.
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Will those design rules ever be released?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah, as soon as I come up with the designs.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
And I believe they wouldn't be characters in the way that the Controls are, right?
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Sure thing!!! No problem at all, that's why I asked :3c thank you! !!!
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
this is pretty cool. I don't mind doing one! But i gotta ask are there any effects other than memory loss of dying too many times before turning into a bug / glitch?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Some memory loss of dying, and complete amnesia when turned into a Bug.
Mmm, nothing else so far. But that may change since it's still just a concept.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Alright thanks for responding! Love ya concept btw!
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
if a control becomes a bug does it get replaced with a new one? Or does example play stop being usable on the system?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
They get replaced with a new Control from an other system.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Nice!I'll create one myself later :3

Btw is there a tag where i can see just the FCs of your media concept? I wanna see what others have come up with, and i wanna make sure im not accidentally making a double XP
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Umm... I have a folder in my favourites called Media Control Fan Characters, you can check them out there.

Hello! sorry if what i ask doesnt really make sense; I'm not very familiar with deviantart. Is there any way that i can submit my fc to you? I'll tag you and ur beautiful concept in the fc picture that I make. Thank you so much for letting us do this~
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You can submit it in your gallery and send me a link, or submit it in your sta.sh where it's private and send me the link there.
And thank you uvu
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Can I make my own computer? In that makes any sense....
Like my own set of controls, obvious crediting you for the idea and the fact they are fan characters.
I just love them so much~
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes you may! >u< And thank you so much~

Is there a "Format Painter" yet?! OwO
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I uh.... no. Is it like the blue thing that comes over the text when you select it?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No, it's something in docs that you can use to format multiple things at the same time! It's the paint roller icon.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, I really wouldn't count something that only exsist in one app/program...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Aww... I had a cool idea for it too... it's for Google, jsyk! ^^
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
is there one for antiviral? or File Explorer? or something like the Format button for flash drives?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No internet browsers or apps or such things.
I would say ia format button doesn't fit as a media control.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
o
ok
what about the log out thing?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_co…
These are media controls.
Then there's these shortcut keys like CTRL, ALT... etc...
And then there's things that I am not sure if I would accept them as media controls like, Incognito, Folder, but as long as you can make something creative with them, they can work. So if you want to make Log Out, you can do that.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Has there been a "Fast Forward/Skip" control yet?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Rewind is actually Fast Forward too, but uses the name Rewind because it's shorter.
But yes, both are made.
It doesn't mean that you couldn't make another design of the same control though!
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Are shortcuts allowed to be a media control or is it not?
When I saw this I thought about the keyboard shortcuts and I thought it would be cool.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I have made some keys like CTRL and ALT. So yeah, you can make those.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Okay, thank you so much!
And I was also was wondering if you were also working on a shift character.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Since Volume is one is 'Mute' also one?
Kinda want to make one but one that doesnt have a design yet XD
Or atleast one for that i havent seen one yet...so mute would be my try ^^
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, no one has done it yet.. So yeah.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well i will make one ^^
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Would I be able to use the "error loading" screen from YouTube, or does that not count as a media control?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, It could be a Loading's mode. But as a character itseld, no.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
hhhhhh here's a thoughthhhhhhh
what if there was/were media controls called Undo/Redo????? hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
ohboyherecomesmorethoughtshhhhhh
Reload/refresh and Inspect?????? hhhhhh ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
i really want to make one but it seemed alot of them were already designed 
WAIT have you made one for voice type or anything to do with voice?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ok, added one more thing to the ref: "there can be several designs of the same Control, just as long as they don't look like each other (like in Steven Universe. These are no gemsonas.)"
So you can make a control that has already been made, just as long as it doesn't look too similar.
Yeah, I have made Volume.
