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

Posted 5 years, 3 months ago (Edited 8 months, 29 days ago) by 0urobous

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..!

Im sad this is almost 4 years old and still not implemented. I make sure I save every image elsewhere but now Im wary about my tagged images ever since finding out this was why a couple images vanished from some adopts I got with adopt sheets in their galleries. What if they delete it by accident not knowing this problem? ;o;

SadieBear exactly! a lot of people simply dont know this is a thing... every time a friend tags their oc in a pic of mine, i always have to ask them to make sure not to delete it completely ... If this issue were fixed, i wouldn't have to ask...

Once I accidentally did this when someone miscredited some art to me. I hate this feature so much. People may not just use it out of spite, they could make a genuine mistake by deleting an image from someone else's character when they meant to delete it from theirs, I'm pretty sure I saw someone do that once but luckily it got fixed.

Maybe even an option to disable deleting images entirely, both in other people's galleries and your own, I love going through Leo's gallery but I'm too scared of accidentally deleting images from her gallery.

+1 I've bought characters that have images that are of like 100 different characters (like a group picture, so many characters all the tags actually run off the entire page) and because I organize my characters into subgalleries (ie references, main gallery, misc) or into other tabs if I change the design, I am TERRIFIED that when I do that I'm going to accidentally delete it from the other characters' galleries! Then I'd have to INTERACT and apologize and add the other person's character back so they wouldn't think I was trying to be mean

I sincerely think that we need this kind of functionality.
