Love the site, but I was wondering if there was a way to organize the Favorites menu.

The favorites menu just uses fav:your_username, so you can use any search terms with that to sort or limit it. You'll have to use those search terms again or bookmark it since the "Favorites" link will still link to the default search.

I think he means being able to put your favorites into groups and change their order, like pools. It isn't totally necessary but it would be nice.


Love the site. Was wondering are forum posts included in the posting/comment limit?

yes that's what i meant. Also thanks for the advice tony311


Um... the first page of posts isn't working for me at all. It's showing up as though I have every image on there blacklisted. The second and so on pages work, and the first page when I do searches works, but not e621.net/post/index...

try hitting refresh


Could you make it so that you could resize an image by clicking on it, and being able to drag the image to zoom in and out? That's a feature that I've always wanted, maybe to crop something out or to zoom in on something that looked especially nice.

Clicking images is already used to show/hide notes, so we can't make it do something else.

It would be great if we could clear out FFD's without actually approving the image.


Is there a 'find similar' feature- or more specifically,a way to know if you're uploading a duplicate?

If it's an exact duplicate, the tags will be merged with the existing post's tags and...I don't remember if there's a message or not, I don't see it often. Either there's a message telling you that it's a duplicate, or you just end up at the existing post's page. Maybe both.

I don't believe there's any way to search for images that are similar but not exact duplicates. You're best off searching the site before uploading, and hoping that the image is properly tagged.


I see,thanks Snowy

Wonder if there are any plans to incorporate a dupe image search

You'd have to ask Aurali or Tony about that.


awesome site, but could use less my little pony. already blacklisted it, but since a lot of the recent ones are my little pony, when i refresh the index, there's not much new stuff.

While I do agree with you,the ratio of mlp to everything else is surprisingly not that large.
There are ~12 340 mlp posts
Assuming that each picture is tagged mlp once,subtracting that from the current (as of this post) id,which is 197 724, gives us ~185 384 non-mlp posts.

If we were to exclude the deleted posts & count approved posts only (which is 176 730,judging from the front page),that would give 176730 - 12340,which is roughly 164 390 posts.

That would be a ratio of 12340 : 164390.
Which means,for every 1 mlp post,there are 13 non-mlp posts

..On second thought,maybe this is not the most apt place to post this info


I'd love to be able to lock ratings from the upload page.

I think that the posts per day might be more instructive than the total number of posts, because that's what influences the front page the most (and the front page is where most people go if they aren't looking for something specific). Let's do a back-of-the-envelope calculation:

Of the MLP posts, 11777 of those are from Friendship is Magic. The earliest piece of FIM art I can find on this site (with minimal effort) was uploaded on November 18 2010. So 11777 posts over...470 days is 25 posts per day. The earliest upload remaining on this site is from February 10 2007, which is 1847 days ago. Using your numbers for the non-MLP art, that gives 89 non-MLP posts per day. That gives a ratio of 1:3.56 on the front page, or roughly 22%. That's where the perception of "SO MANY PONIES" comes from.


While we are on the pony topic, how do you sort the tags? I, for instance, do not enjoy pony sex or pony porn, but I do love epic pony art, also with nudity(remember, no sex!)

So? Is there a way to, like, remove 'sex' tag or something?

Add the following line to your blacklist (it needs to be all one line, and there should be no other tags on the line):
my_little_pony rating:explicit

If you're okay with sexual nudity (e.g. pinups), it gets more complicated, because the above line will block that. Instead you'll need something like the following:
my_little_pony sex
my_little_pony masturbation
my_little_pony penetration

You'll probably still see some sex slip through because of poor tagging, but please fix that when you see it.


It would be nice to upload from ssl-encrypted sites without renaming the scheme to http (as opposed to https)

Wow,22% does seem like a lot,especially if you use the default post-display of 75.
Ideally(?),that's about 17 posts per page

It would be nice if people filled out bug reports instead of putting them in the wrong location.
