| Summary: | Using similar function to search similar/duplicate images before uploading an image |
| Description: | Currently if we look at a post we can click on the "Similar" link at the side and it'll search for similar/duplicate images. I was wondering if it'd be possible to add this to the upload function, so that users can search if the image they want to upload already exists on Gelbooru. If it doesn't exist users can just confirm the upload or if a duplicate already exists they can just cancel it. |
| Additional Info: | I uploaded this: http://gelbooru.com/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=900037 thinking that I've never seen it on gelbooru before (and I had, once in the long ago past, browsed through all of gelbooru because I had nothing better to do :P and I didn't recall seeing it on gelbooru before). After checking the similar link I found this earlier post http://gelbooru.com/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=850251 As you can see, it'd be better if we can check for similar posts before uploading and avoid putting more burden on mods on having to delete duplicates. Feel free to delete my post, I've already flagged it for deletion. |

| Should be trivial with a little AJAX/iframe/XMLHttpRequest or so. What I'd also like to see (hijacking your bug report here) is something like onchange='document.getElementById("image").src ="file://"+this.value;' for the file upload box, so you can see the image you're going to upload right there (but Firefox blocks access to images accessed by file:/, so unless there's a preliminary upload...). |
