Requested feature overview description.
Let's say user is trying to use direct upload with Inkbunny image, they insert https://il.ib.metapix.net/files/screen/XXX/XXXXXXX_Artist_Title.png
Of course this is inkunnys preview image, meaning that this post needs to get replaced with higher quality original one.
As proper image is stored in almost identical url, simply automatically changing the /screen/ to /full/ would make the post upload highest quality directly without hasshle. As many other sites do have similar ways of handling previews, includes tumblr and twitter, this would cut down extra work insanely with something that sounds on paper to be really minor thing to automate.
If this is done, user should be notified that their link was incorrect, that it was altered to get best quality and that they should in future take this into account maybe even with link to instructions.
Could also include warning when user is uploading from e.g. furaffinity, url stating the file to be png, but site correcting it to jpg, that they should double check for higher quality version as that's also sites generated preview, but furaffinity does not store original files at that point.
Also if uploaded from sites where it's impossible to get submission url from direct url and user leaves sources empty, notify them to add it in.
Why would it be useful?
I know this is idiotproofing, but I have also seen this happen to the best. This would cut down also their accidents from piling into their deletions count, as well as cut down unnecessary work which comes from handling same posts twice, possibly even with users getting offended that their uploads are being stolen etc.
What part(s) of the site page(s) are affected?
Direct URL uploading.
