AAn booru[[Image Booru]] is a new breed of [[Image Boards]] and is essentially a tag -based image archive. Most are based loosely around anime. Because the idea is still relatively new there are not that many of them around compared to, say, forums or more traditional imageboards. The name is derived from [[Danbooru]], the first booru. These sites cater to those who want the [[Pixiv]] experience, but don't feel like sifting through Japanese or inconsistent tagging. A very large majority of the images you see on boorus came from [[Pixiv]] first.
 
Danbooru got its name from the Japanese word ''Danbo-ru'', meaning 'cardboard box.' It was originally coded and administrated by rq. The site got more and more popular, in large part due to rq's lenient policy on mature content, until eventually the site couldn't take the strain anymore and rq pulled the plug.

=== Tropes that apply to the site include: ===
* [[Brain Bleach]]: Browsing Danbooru and Gelbooru? Bring a few gallons. They even have special pools titled "Nightmare Fuel", and "CANNOT UNSEE!".
* [[Color Coded for Your Convenience]]: {{color|darkred|Artist}} tags are red, {{color|green|character}} tags are green, {{color|purple|copyright}} tags are purple, and {{color|blue|general}} tags (tags that don't fit in any of the above, as well as the default color) are blue.
Line 31:
* [[Sturgeon's Law]]: Actively [[Defied Trope|defied]] with Danbooru's mod queue, where Test Janitors and up review the uploads of Privileged and below. The queue ensures that the worst offenders of Sturgeon's Law get winnowed and keeps the art quality on the site at least above average.
