HI THERE !!!! Just a quick little suggestion that I've had on the mind but never thought to bring up, as is with many things |D !!!

But I know that, personally, I tend to end up with quite a few pieces of art that have alternative versions - sometimes one with lighting, one without, you know - and I'd love to display both, but I fear that it'd look a bit bulky in the gallery to post the alternatives separately!
I didn't have anything specific to suggest other than, basically, just a broad feature where a picture can have different versions without having to post separately - but I hope this is some food for thought <3

Edit: Gosh guys, thanks for all of the support! I've been racking up a lot of commissions lately that have alternative versions and I'm needing this more than ever - glad to hear I'm not the only one hoping!

+1 Very useful when I'm selling adopts and include a transparent bg version for owner use! Since it's the same image I do sometimes worry people would think I'm trying to make it look like the design has more art than it actually does when I just want to provide a conveniently included file for coding needs

Yeah! It could be set to have, Iike,, a down/up arrow to look at the different versions (so it doesn't mess with the side-to-side 1picture-to-2picture) and the info can be under the arrow-key(s) or lining up the alt pics vertically (and the info either under all or under each vers)

I need this! I always have to upload 2 of every ref sheet I make, one with lighting and one without
It clogs up my art page and it sUcks

+1 alot of my art, and art i receive through trades, often have alternate versions and it feels clunky in the gallery. I could also see this being useful for character references, such as if a character had multiple outfits/forms

+1 I don't use the forums here much, so I don't know if bringing up an old post is allowed or not, but I searched this on Google to see if it was possible and was disappointed that it wasn't... I have a character with two main hair colours, and almost all art I make of him has a version for either hair colour. It makes galleries look messy to upload two of the same image with one slight difference in each, over and over.
