Hi, all have been fixed, but once again I would like to ask you to stop using this method. It simply creates a lot of extra work for us. If you are unsure about quality, add the smallest possible size. If you are unsure about cropping (as has been the case in other reports), add the one you think is the best. Otherwise you are just asking us to do your work. Thanks.

What if I dont ask you to "do the work" (i.e. if I dont report them)? Would that be okay (or at least better than doing it then reporting it)? Or do you mean I just shouldnt do it, full stop?

I think the first time you asked me to stop doing it, I thought you were specifically talking about that specific report you said that on where I did a bit of overkill and had like at least a dozen options for one image. Since then I have been workign hard on limiting it as much as possible, ideally down to 2-6 options. And I didnt get any criticisms for doing that so I thought it was fine. But it seems that might have been my mistake for coming to that conclusion.

Ideally, I would love it if somehow the editing of images can be done on the site itself and all I had to do was upload the original image (unedited by me). I'm not requesting this to happen, I know thats just not how the site works, I'm just expressing what would be ideal for me.

Right at this moment, if you also would say "don't do that" to doing this method even without reporting (reporting is asking a mod to "do the work"; so if I dont report would that be okay...would that be not asking the mods to "do the work"? For example, I've done the exact same thing with episode stills but I havent bothered reporting those; would you just prefer I not report them?), then, if that's the case, then, I'm thinking I'd rather just not upload any images. To me, it would just be guesswork, and it would feel like a waste of time to edit and upload images if I know for sure, that theres a high chance there is a better way to crop or downscale the original images and upload better versions of the ones I upload.

There have been some grumblings about your method internally, but moderators are polite and try to do the best of the situation. As far as I know in all my years here you are the only user adding multiple images and asking us to decide which one to keep and that is not a good situation overall. So what I ask (on behalf of all moderators) is if you could try adding only one image instead of several duplicates. (Edit: You are of course free to add more than one image as long as the other images are not duplicates.) The option of adding duplicates and not reporting them would likely lead to you getting a message to stop doing that should a moderator discover it, then a warning if it continues etc.

To me, it would just be guesswork, and it would feel like a waste of time to edit and upload images if I know for sure, that theres a high chance there is a better way to crop or downscale the original images and upload better versions of the ones I upload.

This is the area where you have to be more decisive. Perhaps only add the ones you feel look great. If you are unsure about quality you can try my method of viewing the images in double zoom. If they still look good then, they should be fine to add. Or you could add a smaller version just to be safe. I don't think there are plans to add image editing directly on site. Thanks.

Last thing I'll say (I think) is that I just wanted to upload the images the way a moderator who specialises in contributing images would upload them. If I can't do that, then I dont see a point in doing it at all. And I've already established (to myself) months and months ago with dozens of reports that I really dont know and cant tell how a mod would upload an image. When I made those "dozens of reports" and then checked back when they were answered/completed most of the time the versions that I thought I best downscaled/cropped were the versions that were removed, and the versions that I thought were less ideally downscaled/cropped were the ones kept. So, I came to the conclusion that I'm not capable of understanding visually what is wanted.

I guess I could still upload images if the images are very high quality (obviously) EDIT: as in, without uploading more than one version. Thanks.

My final comment: You are in many ways an advanced image user without any of the normal image issues. I have to contact several users each week who distort images, scale up images or add images with watermarks. So feel free to contribute when the circumstances permit. Closing topic.
