Topic: Need an easier way for uploaders to change submitted files?

Posted under Art Talk

Im in the situation where its the second time where an artist have sent me a revised image of a picture Ive uploaded here. And as its not possible to change the submission file, Ive had to flag my post to be deleted and reuploading the image in question again, loosing all the comments.

On FA, you can change your submitted files, making it much less of a hassle when recieving edited images.

But still not an easy way to go about it.

What kind is the revision? If it is sketch to color to fully shaded, simply keep all versions and parent them, if these are smaller edits than there is nothing that can be done at the moment.
Aurali and Tony are working on a revised comment/forum/blip system to allow for comment transfer in such cases. Or at least that feature was listed on the to-do list a while back.

More like the artist not having added enough toes on the image. He went back to correct it, due to a charsheet in the pipeline having 5 toes. Original had 3 toes - Mistake. He corrected it to 4, then 5 in second revision.

Why delete the old versions?
It's nice to have all the different numbers of toes on e621.

Nobody can. We understand that in some cases, the ability to alter an uploaded post can be useful, but we're sticking to one-image-per-post style for now.

Oh really. Odd, thought I saw some.
