Thumbnails or No Thumbnails?
13 years ago
The last time I tried using the warning thumbnails on submissions, they would ONLY display in the gallery preview ( the 10 most recent submissions as seen on our page ) , NOT in the gallery itself, NOT on the front page, and NOT in the browse mode of FA. This defeats the whole purpose of using warnings. I tried different formats (jpg, gif, png) , all with the same result. Alternatively, as you may have noticed, I first upload an image place holder, and wait till the submissions clear the front page, then replace them with the actual files... And people STILL complain when they happen to glance upon something they don't approve of when browsing FA >. >
My opinion is that since thumbnails only display on the gallery preview, they are therefore useless and otherwise annoying (as a repeating pattern of anything is hard on the eyes).
Furthermore, anyone who has their account set to display adult material should not get all pissy about seeing fetish art that they do not approve of, as their eyes can just as well keep on a' rollin' down the page.
So I ask you all.. Should I open a trouble ticket with FA to figure out why thumbnails are no longer working so that we might start using them on our submissions? Or should we say to hell with censorship and leave things the way they are?

FA+

What do they expect when they browse through 'fetish other- adult?'
Just once. These pictures aren't being seen by people who don't want to see them 9 times out of 10. I honestly think keeping the system you currently have in place is working just fine. :3
