The picture with highest score in past 3 days is in over 100th place in trending.
A single downvote can kick a picture back by multiple spots. Like 25 in one of tests.

Get back to normal score sorting.

I just noticed that the form "Copy and Customize" doesn't have the checkbox that allows us to make a public filter. This seems a bit counter intuitive, and hides the possibility of creating a public filter from unknowing users. Right now I have to manually copy over tags if I want to create a public, slightly modified default filter for example.

I don't know if it's always been this way or if this changed with Philomena.

It'd be helpful if the site displayed an image's file type, size, and dimensions on the upload page. It might help curb the accidental uploads of lower size and quality images. It might also put a stop to people trying to upload WEBMs from twitter only to end up with a PNG of the first frame in the animation.

I'm sure it's for privacy reasons, and it's one of the core beliefs of the site from what I remember.

@TheGlitchedWolf
Caveat: I am not staff.

When I was recently adding the API endpoint to get user data, I had initially tossed into the plan to make a /search/profiles, but then when I went to actually make it, I realized there was nothing on the site to search for users.

When I asked site admins, they told me this was by design, so I doubt there will be a way to find users in that manner.

A way to see the newest users on the site. Possibly from the statistics page?

@Melisareb
Under the tags, between [Source:] and Comments.

@TexasUberAlles
Nvm, I reported it.

@TexasUberAlles
I don't know how to report, there's no report button on the image

@Melisareb
Report the image you want to be merged.

I have a suggestion, merge this image >>2294179 into this >>2294234 , because I saw a correction of Rainy's mane color, so I uploaded a duplicate one.

Is it possible to have some kind of "Sorry, this image has already been uploaded but is spoilered/hidden by your current filter" message to replace the cryptic "Image orig sha512 hash has already been taken" which currently results? 'Cuz that's, uh, not really helpful vis-à-vis trying to figure out why repeated upload attempts are failing.

Re-implemet the old search method for the forums. This new stuff is complicated as hell, and i need to find old posts regularly for character sheets and otherwise. If youre dead set, you could do it with now both search systems the new and the old.

Either that or make a tutorial.

Any chance you guys could add tag autocomplete to the search bar? There are many times I don't remember a tag or an artists full name. I think it would be very useful.

@Damaged
I'll try that out. The only reservations I have with that solution are:

1. If all the versions are tagged alternate version, then none of them will be in my watched list
2. The original image may not have the alternates linked in the description, so I wouldn't see the alternates I was interested in unless I already knew there were more to look for.

@PUBLIQclopAccountant
You could add alternate version to your watchlist filter.

I forget if I already posted this Pinkie Pie in the sky suggestion. It would be nice if all the versions of an image could be linked into some master post that can be condensed. What prompted this is that my watched page just got flooded by about 20 edits of the same image, just with one edit for each combination of fetishes.

Perhaps the "root" image of the set could be the one with the rating closest to safe and the fewest fetish-related tags and the list of alternates would then be tag-diffed against the currently-displayed image.

Think something like safe → questionable or -underhoof +hands

@Wellwater
Hrmm, my thought would be:

Bot grabs a safe image, color shifts it just a little (to stop reverse searching). Users have to find it as quickly as possible (DMing their search string to the bot).

Award for first to find the image and award for shortest search string that brings it up in a 24-image search.

"tag golf"

Damn it, now I want to make a discord bot that lets people play derpibooru tag golf…

Perhaps the main restriction is you aren't allowed to use ID: or any of the hash searches.

It does seem like a rather logical extrapolation from code golf and regex golf, doesn't it? I guess you'd start with e.g. a random page of images, pick their IDs out and post those along with a screenshot (of a search for those IDs sorted by upload) so it's easier to see if you've got the right results.

Could also work as a forum game here, I expect.

@Background Pony #5FB3
Well, yeah, but what other specific types of special pictures do you want shown? They usually (not always) have a particular tag or set of tags that defines them reasonably well. So you can kind of play "tag golf", figuring out which minimal set of tags is enough to reliably pick out the ones you want.

@Wellwater
Only works for db collabs.

A way to give titles to portions of a complex spoiler rule. i.e. Single tags spoilered normally say what they are on a spoilered thumbnail, but the whole of a complex spoiler just says "(Complex Filter)"; instead I could have one line of the complex spoiler put "Stuff I don't like" on the thumbnail when it evaluates true, and another line put "Haven't watched this episode yet", etc.

@The Smiling Pony
Thanks but I wasn't asking about how to do it. I was asking for a more convenient way to whitelist ids than to add all desired ids as exclusions to complex filter lines of all the artist/oc tags I filter.

Add -(derpibooru community collaboration,wall of tags) to each complex filter, once?
