Tell us stuff that needs doing

Could we get a link to reverse image search from the upload page, please?

@dt  

 
Good idea. It’s done.

Any progress on blocking user uploads/comments? Really going to need it now that EqG has been released…

• Clicking on a spoilered thumbnail could load image thumbnail  
 
becomes  
 
Then when you click on the actual image thumbnail, you are directed to image page.

@shyflutter  
Do something like that but with mouseovers :V
 
If possible, implement the doubletap for mobile browsers instead.

@Itsthinking  
Nope, sorry.
 
 
@shyflutter  
@aceofscarabs  
That might be a good idea. But no to mouseover, though, I doublt people want to move the mouse around “hotspots” to avoid unintended spoiler uncovering.

@Itsthinking  
User blocking isn’t happening, at least for now. It would require too much of our existing spoiler/hide code to be rewritten, and we only want to do that once when we migrate to client-side filters.

A little link under a thumbnail that links directly to an image would be amazing, especially if you want to open images without fear of adventures in the comments, or worse, untagged .gif parties.

can you guys add a way to filter forum threads?

@Background Pony  
Good idea! I also suggest the opposite, have a link to just open the comments and not load the image, that way you won’t have to reload a huge image just to refresh the comments.

@RIG  
No.

Not sure if anyone has said this yet, but a pool system similar to E621?  
So if there are comics that are distanced apart it would be easier to find the bunch.  
Not really top priority, but would seem convient.

@Kinkie Marks  
You mean… tags?

@Background Pony  
No, you can go to e621 to see what I mean (its nsfw so beware)

@Kinkie Marks
 
You really can do the same thing with tags, though. For example, all of Trite Bristle’s comics are tagged ‘heartstrings (comic).’

@dt  
That only works for comics that have their own tags, and most don’t.
 
Pools of images are in development - I think K_A got pretty far with it but time has prevented it from making it to our master branch. We’ll chase it up if it’s a relatively straightforward addition.

@Clover the Clever
 
We’re gonna have to come up with a name for the pool anyway. Just tag it that.
 
Unless you wanna go with generic names like “C-D’s unnamed comic 1” or whatever.

Forum search?

Can we have the ability to see forum posts or threads created by a user?

Couple of useless tags I came across today: hd 1080p 1080  
They all refer to the same thing (theoretically, because not even every image in there is actually 1920x1080), but it’s nothing a resolution search can’t fix in the first place anyway.

Can you guys do something about oversized comics? People keep uploading the full res size from dA, which in DP is too small to read at normal and too big when zoom in to full size.

@Grieffon  
there’s a way to get an ‘optimum sizing’ done based on comic resolutions on other boards I’ve been on, but I’m not sure if the software here would have that, or if it’d need to be made from scratch.

@Niggoslav_Krawczyk  
We make most things from scratch, why would that be any different? ¬_¬
 
Seriously though - we have got most of the new thumbnailing system done, we’re just kicking the tyres before we roll it out. It does include a 1024x4096 “comic” size.

I think there needs to be an option where a user can filter out individual unwanted images by image number without blocking out other images with the same tag(s). Images you filtered out are listed in your “filtered images” as their numbers, in case one, for some reason, decides to unfilter it

@SeraphimDawn  
I asked for this a long time ago, still nothing done about it.
