New Feature Suggestion: Upgrade a Picture

Currently if a user submits a photo to upload and a lower resolution version of the picture is already in the database, the picture is rejected for upload without no further recourse provided. This has become a quite common occurrence in my experience.

Assuming that the site would benefit from replacing the lower resolution image with a higher resolution image, the following new feature is suggested:

Rather than complicate the existing image upload process, it is suggested that a new option be provided in the existing suite of icons above existing images that allows a user to submit an "upgrade" to an existing image. When the user selects this option, the user is prompted to upload an image file. After successfully receiving this image file, the system performs a quick check to confirm that the submitted uploaded image would trigger the duplicate image condition on the existing image that the current image upload procedure already includes. If it does, the system queues the uploaded image for review by a moderator. If the new uploaded image is confirmed to be a higher resolution version of the existing by the moderator, the new image replaces the existing image in the database, thus allowing comments, tags, placement in lists, and other references to be maintained, and the lower resolution image is discarded. Perhaps the submitter also receives a credit mutation for upgrading. If the moderator determines that the submitted image is not a higher resolution version of the old image, the image is rejected; perhaps the submitted loses a credit for wasting the moderators' time.

The moderation step might not be necessary depending on how good the image duplication logic is. If so, this would significantly simplify implementation.

Hi,

iOS stop playing videos from wbw, when i want to play it “directly” (without web player). When i press download button, safari ask me what i want with file: display or download. When i choose display, safari show me this sign and cant play. When i choose download, then afrer download, video can play in iOS…
This “display” method was working for me years ago, but now it is not usable for me.

Anything that improves the quality of the site is good. Perhaps a small simplification: If the image is of higher resolution, accept it. There are already hundreds of duplicate images in the data base. Removing the lower resolution image seems like a complicated and unnecessary step. (This suggestion from a member who does not upload)

Also, it took me like 15 attempts to spell the word unnecessary correctly.

The issue is the encoding keeping up with the amount of videos. I am already working on putting a extra server to add to workload of transcoding. If there is a "download" button where the video player suppose to be that is that the web format videos haven't been transcoded.

I hope to have the new server up and running tomorrow.

I have added a extra encoder server to the mix, hopefully this will fix most of your problems. Let me know if it is better now.

I am going to add this to the video section too, I want to enable it by default. Maybe add the block button directly under the uploader. This will help a lot of complaints about not linking somebodies uploads.

I am also looking into making a way to recommend content based on passed interests. Problem with this is for pictures would be difficult or they all have to be tagged.

Do you have discord? Maybe easier to help you with finding the root of this problem you are having.

Is this with all the content? or the content where you press "download video"?

Can't turn off "site" notifications in "Notification Settings". When I toggle any/all of them and then click "Save Settings" the page refreshes and they're all are reset to "On".

Noticed today, any time after logon that I am navigating in the site I repeatedly get prompted for my "primary password" (see screenshot). Functionality/access appears to not be impacted, but any time I navigate to a different page within the site I am prompted, and then sometimes re-prompted without changing pages. Only happens on WBW.

Weird that firefox keeps prompting for your primary password database password. I need to test this and look into this, it should not happen as there is no password field in the layout.

Did this just happen? because one hour ago I updated the site with big overhaul. I tested everything on Chrome and Safari...

Seems to be cached old style sheets… I will keep a lookout if it happens again, than one of the cdn’s hasn’t been updated.
