Topic: [Feature] Artist tools

Posted under Site Bug Reports & Feature Requests

A feature where one could verify their account(ARTIST), and then have ability to sort, edit, change files, delete files.
It would save some hassle for moderators constantly getting takedown request if you could also build in a folder option for artist to use, that the art would be in and still available to site users but not directly in the gallery.

Sorting is always by upload date by default and requires either sets or search parameter to change, so nothing to do with artist.

Editing can be done by any user already.

Changing file cannot be done, as site relies on posts being attached to files MD5 hash, changing files will change the hash of the file, which is why getting superior file to begin with requires it to be uploaded and inferior deleted. We already deem updated artwork superior, so artists can change the files by flagging the old versions as inferior.

Deleting individual official files is really uncommon and usual delay on takedowns is under day and is only handled by NotMeNotYou.

Again thanks to technical limitations, there cannot be posts on the site which aren't part of the posts. Having seperate section on the site which would allow users to have unfitting content uploaded to use as avatars, etc. but right now that seems pretty much impossibility.

I would like to have better way of linking artists tag to artists profile, rather than current ambiguous way that isn't explained properly anywhere as well as other possible benefits other than usage of "My prices" on bio and for staff to know if it's artist posting unreleased content or not. Automation would require URLs to be verified and locked by staff.

And the most important takeaway is this: this isn't Furry Network. Go and use Furry Network if you want personal gallery features.

By design, files can't be deleted or modified. As for folders, you can use sets that serve practically the same purpose. If you're making a comic, then use pools

All we can do for artists is linking the user name toa tag, which adds a second box to your user page ("My Prices" box in user settings)
