wrong section of md forums

edit: right section, thankfully mods have the edit history so i dont have to rember shit.

Mod edit: Here's the original post:
I am obviously making a draft for a certain CG webcomic on dlsite (their internal classification is CG+ for these type of works.) before uploading the title to MD.

I have a few questions.

Should each chapter cover be a "volume"?
Should it also be classified as "Doujinshi"
Does MD support cartoonishly large chapters (not gonna upload them personally but maybe someone else will)?
(as in hundreds of pages per chapter type shit)?
Said work's original covers for each chapter are changed as the entire thing was redrawn. Should I use the redrawn covers or the original ones?

Could always edit it to what it was supposed to be and then ask a mod to move it to the right section.

Would depend, Give the title or an official link for the series

As per out current Tag Definition,
Doujinshi: An independently published series based on an existing work, generally created by fans..
If it is based on an existing work then yes otherwise No, At least for now

There isn't a limit on pages AFAIK, There is a limit on the size of the chapter which is 200MB officially (but is actually 300MB if I remember correctly), The biggest page count that I could remember right now is probably Goodbye Eri Oneshot (I am sure someone can point out something even longer...

Said work's original covers for each chapter are changed as the entire thing was redrawn. Should I use the redrawn covers or the original ones?
You'll be good with only adding one, But ideally all the old and redrawn covers are to be added, With numbering such as 1, 2, 3, ... for the old ones and 1.1, 2.1, 3.1, ... for the redrawn ones

I'm wondering if my original post was in the right place

This is the original work that spawned the numerous adaptations but IDT most anglophones are actually aware due to the original work's obscurity.

Said work being Sakusei Byoutou.
The reason I'm asking questions is because each chapter has AT LEAST 200 pages due to the entire nature of CG works just being panel-less comics with only speechbubbles changing and the final one having a whopping 543 pages.

The entire webcomic was redrawn for copyright reason with the only original versions being on the sadpanda/hitomi so I'm wondering whether I should make my entry about the original/redrawn. So much hassle.

Yea it's fine here

Yea I think it should be seperated into seperate volumes unless a collection of all the chapter comes out in one

Yea I don't think the pages would be an issue for Chapters 1-8 at least, The raw chapter size for each individual chapters from 1-8 is below 300MB
