Topic: Could we shrink or move the "source" box on the upload page?

Posted under General

It's far smaller on the "edit" page and this way it's less likely to confuse it with the tags box which feels like it should be the second one...

[edit] correction, it's not smaller, it's just not the first one there. Some consistency would be nice

That probably should've gone to the feature request thread, but it seems like a good idea. The source box doesn't need to be that big, and if it were smaller it would be harder to mix it up with the tag box.

I switched the order of the fields on the upload page so they match the order of the fields on the edit form (tags, source, description) and made the source box three lines high instead of five. Of course, now people are probably used to the source box being first when uploading and will start entering tags into the source field and sources into the tags field... damn you muscle memory!

(these changes aren't live yet by the way)

Appreciate it. Doubly appreciate the last line.
