Panic


As some of you may have noticed, I've not posted anything here for a couple of months. The reason for that is, well, I was burgled shortly after my last post, and my computer got taken - along with about 70 caps that I had queued for upload, and all my notes and stuff - plus a lot of stuff not related to TG capping, obviously. There was quite a lot to deal with, and at the time the Caption Palace really wasn't my priority. It's going to take me a while to get back into the swing of things - hunting down images that speak to me artistically* has taken some time. I'm aiming to post weekly for the next few months, as caps are thin on the ground at the mo, but hopefully I'll get back into the swing of things shortly.
* Pretentious, I know, but it's true. I firmly believe that a good TG cap requires an image - and a performer -that it's possible to empathise with emotionally, and then build a scenario around that emotion.

Search terms.

So, according to the traffic stats, two people came here looking for "přání k narozeninám", which google tells me is Czech for "Birthday cards". Czechoslavakian birthday parties must be pretty fucked up...

The Depopulation Event - Advert


While some countries took a more authoritarian approach to dealing with the rapid decline in the female birth rate, others tried to recruit volunteers. Here's one ad campaign aimed at encouraging young men to sign up for feminisation.

Letter Home


I'm trying to make some of my caps a little prettier than my usual plain-white-plus-verdana format. Some of them will still be quick-and-simple though. What do you think?
