Unbreakable said in forum #456686:
Is standing supposed to be mutually exclusive with walking (and to a lesser extent running) or not? I tend to treat them like they are but a walking standing solo search gives 3142 results and a running standing solo search gives 893.
If they aren't mutually exclusive shouldn't basically all the posts featuring walking and running also be tagged standing?
The standing wiki currently says
Most often, standing characters are absolutely upright, but they may also be leaning forward, bent over, or even walking.
which is a condensed version written by evazion, the wiki was even more explicit that walking can be considered standing before:
This tag is still applicable where the character is in the middle of certain actions that keep upright posture such as walking.
Personally I think it makes sense for walking to generally be part of standing, especially in still images where the difference is often just one foot being placed more forward, I'm not so sure about running.
