Booru (Software)
A booru is a type of imageboard-like website designed primarily for hosting and categorizing large collections of images, typically fan art, anime, manga, or other niche media. The term ''booru'' comes from the Japanese word "board" (ボード, bōdo), re-pronounced in a way that mimics how early anime/manga fans would romanize it online. It’s also a nod to Danbooru (Japanese for cardboard), the original and most well-known booru site. Boorus were created as a companion to image boards to archive and index posted media, as opposed to the policy of imageboards of deleting them when a post becomes too old. Booru also help international users to find media hosted by non-English gallery host, or hosts which often lack English tags. in particular Pixiv Pixiv is a Japanese Virtual community, online community for artists.

Imageboard
An imageboard is a type of Internet forum that focuses on the posting of images, often alongside text and discussion. The first imageboards were created in Japan as an extension of the textboard concept. These sites later inspired the creation of a number of English-language imageboards. Characteristics Imageboards, similar to bulletin board systems, are used for discussions of a variety of topics. The primary focus of imageboards, however, is directed away from text posts, and is instead placed on picture posts. The two share many of the same structures, including separate forums for separate topics, as well as similar audiences. Imageboards are much more transitory with content—on some boards (especially highly trafficked ones), the thread deletion time can be as little as 10 minutes. The most popular English language imageboard, 4chan, similarly has a large variety of topics. Imageboards are also different from online galleries in that most of the works posted are not mad ...
