[FIXED] ❗: Don't let ppl delete other ppls images!

Hi!  I'm a big fan of the tagging system on toyhouse- I think it's really fun to go through and tag your friends' characters in pictures they're in!  But there's a pretty serious loophole...

If I tag someone's OC in a picture, they are then given editing rights to the image, where they can add their own description, set their own crop, etc...  But they are also allowed to delete the image from my gallery. 
All they have to do is go to where the tags are, and delete my OC from the tags, and the image is completely wiped from that OC's gallery..!!

In this picture here, I have tagged a friend's OC, Haruka, and I have the ability to delete Haruka's tag from the image.  Which is innocuous enough, but if I delete the tag, it removes the entire image from her gallery.  And because their OC is tagged here, they have access to this on their side as well, so they are able to delete my OC Haruhi's tag as well, and completely remove the image from her gallery.

This can pave the way for a lot of people to spitefully delete images from someone's gallery without permission should their OC be tagged, or even for someone to mistakenly delete images from their gallery because they don't know that removing the tag removes the image...

If an OC has like 10 images, it should be easy enough to find out which one got deleted and replace it....  But if an OC has a lot of art, it can be a big hassle trying to track down which image was deleted so you can reupload it.

I definitely think that people should be able to delete tags if they aren't involved with the people they're tagging anymore, but they shouldn't be able to delete what's in someone else's gallery when they do so..!

I, honestly, didn't even realize that was still possible. I just checked an image that my characters were added to, and, uh, yeah, I do not like the fact that I can remove other users' characters from the image my character was added to.

Adding characters requires permission from the owner, so... Has anyone checked to see if removing characters from someone else's image requires permission from the owner? (Because, if not, this should be the absolute minimum that is done, to prevent accidentally removing someone else's character from an image that you did not create/upload)


Just to clarify what I mean:
User A makes the image and posts the image - Should be allowed to remove characters from the image without having to get permission.
User B was added to the image - Should be allowed to remove their owned character(s) from the image without needing permission from others. Removing someone else's character from the image needs permission, though. (either from the character's owner or from the artwork's owner. I vote artwork's owner, though)


After all, if User A needs permission and confirmation to be able to add User B's character to the image, why shouldn't there have to be confirmation for User B to remove User C's character from the image?

Spiritburn The last time I tested this, there was no permission required to delete the image from the character's gallery. This was quite awhile ago though (this thread is a little over 2 years old at this point- wow!) so i dont know if it's been changed, but afaik there's no permission, no notification, nothing- it just disappears <:"(
