tag list
Hi, I'm just looking around and was wondering is there a complete tag list we can view like on danbooru of all the tags that have been created? I've had look around but couldn't see it.
Additional Info:We could also store a tagcloud in a new table in the DB based on how many times a search word was made. This would make the DB implode on itself, I am sure, but it's worth a try maybe?

A Tag Cloud is nice, But I've seen JUST how many tags there are(Most of which from what I gather are useless, redundant, or misspelled).

What we need is a General Cloud List; A Cloud List that is of the most sought after tags. When it comes to Pr0n Tags, Uncensored and Nude come to mind instantly so they would be included in that general Cloud list. A cloud list of only Characters could also work.

I guess what I'm saying here is, Given the immense number of tags, we need Not a tag cloud, but tag Clouds as it were.

Maybe somewhere like five will do?

1. Pr0n term Cloud.
2. Character Cloud.
3. Artist/source Cloud.
4. Image content Cloud. (Stuff like objects, articles; stuff/things.)
5. Most used/popular Tags Cloud.

What we have now works, but it takes a heck of a while to load when seen in it's entirety using double asterisks(or just one, I forget which).
So, A nice little collection of tags per cloud would work out nicely. Like a menu at a restaurant works. When you go to a specific restaurant, you pretty much know what to expect. However, it could be that there are so many choices to chose from, your stuck deciding what you would like. Now, if you know what you want going in, there's no problem. HOWEVER, that isn't the case for some users who get bored and can't decide what else to sample. The cloud structure of selected tags solves that; we just need it to be constructed. 11 types of catchup, 5 types of catsup. Which to choose? It's all the same thing, but it helps to brake down which catchup or catsup is a day old or fresh.
