TG News Award Nominee: The Body Hopper's Nebula.

In February we asked you to nominate TG blogs for the TG News Award. We will now present the nominees in a series of blog posts.

The Body Hopper's Nebula is different, and different in many ways.

First of all most of the captions are based on the body hopper theme, where some kind of entity, alien or human, takes over the body of a woman. And the caps are written from the point of view of a male observer who remains male. Interesting.

The caption maker has also found her own style, simplistic but elegant. She has also introduced a TG caption innovation, where she includes info on sources in the cap itself.

The captions are soft core, although maybe not office friendly.

TG News Award Nominee: Body Swap Fiction

In February we asked you to nominate TG blogs for the TG News Award. We will now present the nominees in a series of blog posts.

Body Swap Fiction is, as the creator says, a  blog devoted to "tg captions, stories and erotica with m2f body swaps, magical transformations, identity theft, possession."

So it is!  The captioneer makes use of a clean captioning style, most often with the classic two field design: image to the left, text to the right. However, there are also subtle, but elegant, variations: text on transparent backgrounds and so on.

There is also a parallel tumblr blog, and the creator, M, has published short stories.

TG News Award Nominee: The Femme Side

In February we asked you to nominate TG blogs for the TG News Award. We will now present the nominees in a series of blog posts.

The Femme Side is not only a caption blog. thefemmeside also answers questions about going femme/sissy and crossdressing.

The captions are clean and traditional: Most often with an image to the left and the text in black on gray to the right. The focus is on the photos and the text.

thefemmeside writes on a wide variety of topics, but the main focus is on "natural" feminization and sissyfication, including pictures of pre-op t-girls. There are not many magical changes here.

Unlike most TG bloggers, who publish over at blogger, thefemmeside has made tumblr her home.

TG News Award Nominee: Modern Goddess

In February we asked you to nominate TG blogs for the TG News Award. We will now present the nominees in a series of blog posts.

Modern Goddess is a blog made by Mistress Simone, another experienced blogger and captioner.

Simone creates a balanced mix of explicit and "implicit" imagery, one page captions and series.

Simone is what I call a caption designer. She spends a lot of time on the typography, the balance of the various elements making up the caption.

She even makes a separate cut out image for the home page that presents the gist of the story and entices people to explore the blog further.



Simone has also an image stream over at tumblr.

TG News Award Nominee: NIkki's Sweet Dreams

In February we asked you to nominate TG blogs for the TG News Award. We will now present the nominees in a series of blog posts.

The first nominee is Nikki's Sweet Dreams, one of the classic TG caption blogs, started all the way back in 2008.

Nikki stopped blogging back in 2014, but has now resurrected the blog and is posting on a regular basis.

Nikki goes for a simplistic, classic, caption style: one image or a series of files with single images. Then she adds well written texts in a plain and readable  sans serif typeface.

In other words: Nothing gets in the way of the story and the image.

Lately she has started using animated gifs as well. It works well!

Nikki mixes soft core with sexually explicit imagery, and often adds a dash of humor, as this cap may prove:
