If your version is much better than the existing version, ideally the original, duplicates aren't unnecessarily bad however. Just make sure you parent & mark it as such.
Yeah that too.

I've never uploaded any of my pictures, and would like to, to get a privileged account, but I worry about being monitored, being anonymous, untraceable, etc as far as anyone (government) later accusing me of sending illegal things.
How can I make sure that I remain anonymous? Thanks

You need a privileged account to see unsafe posts.You get a privileged account by being invited.
You get invited by uploading good posts, contributing to the wiki, helping others in the forum, and helping with translation efforts.
Asking for an invite, especially on the forum, is in poor taste. If you believe you deserve one, come to IRC (#danbooru at mint.sayuri.ca) and make your case.
Is this whole system elitist? Yes, it is. Why does it exist? To limit bandwidth usage, and to provide an incentive for users to contribute to the site.

If you're that worried, then merely looking at the site should count against you, shouldn't it? That's sending files, albeit in the other direction. And the fact that you can see this, much less having a logon with which to worry about this, means you've already lost.
Basically, every security agency in the world could be watching you right now and you wouldn't know, but in all likelihood they probably aren't.

Try bayimg if you're really must upload a picture that your government especially forbids (unless it's cp). If you're from Germany, you shouldn't even be visiting here.

Correct my if I'm wrong, but I thought the whole purpose of the privileged account is that it shows that you are a contributing member of the community. How can you expect to be both anonymous AND a member of the community?
By the way, I hope you realize the irony of your situation. In order to voice your concerns about remaining anonymous and not be traced, you have created a traceable account. Just go ahead and post your pictures, because if you were REALLY worried about being traced you wouldn't be using the Internet at all.
Dr Fine Rolo, THANKS for the invite!
Since I visited Danbooru for the first time, I thought that I could post lots of my collection, but the main problem was getting a limit for uploading.
It's great to feel the reconnaisance from the other guys.
I'll keep on posting, for the board's good sake.
So guys, if you want a privileged account, post a lot of REALLY good stuff and tag well, often you can help more than you think.
Thanks again.

This.
I'd only uploaded 85 pics when I got an invite (thanks, sillycon). But none have been deleted, so I guess they were considered good. :) Apparently it's not that hard to get an invite, just be a good contributor and somebody's bound to notice.
Fef-Vii said: I wonder if correcting tags gets noticed too. I don't think that correcting tags is near as important as uploading good stuff, but still - it's what I can do.
It is hard to know when someone is correcting tags. I wish there were an easier way to tell. But even if there were a raw number of 'tag edits' in someone's profile, it'd be hard to differentiate useful and useless changes.
Still would be interested in the numbers though. The tag history seems to go back "only" a year though, so I'm not sure if there's complete data on this... but there must be, as every post has a tag history. I have a feeling it'd be really resource-intensive to pull these stats for users though.

Good things you can do to contribute
- posting good images (interesting thoughts in forum #2555)
- adding useful tags (see forum #2047)
- reporting incorrect ratings
- identifying artists and adding entries to the artist db
- identifying sources
- tracking down other useful information
- filling in the wiki
- making interesting comments
- translatingBad things that make it harder for you to get invited
- bad posts, especially if flooding
- poor tagging of your uploads
- useless comments and forum posts
- bad wiki edits
- terrible spelling and grammar (check forum #2156)
- making useless forum threads to beg for invites
- trying to make the site what it is not (see forum #2565)(I plan to flesh out the details by editing this post in the future)
thanks. I will do my best.
They were mostly generic game CGs, if I'm not mistaken. We don't normally care to have all subtle variations of a scene. You cannot reupload deleted posts, so you should probably move on.
In general, uploading a whole CG pack with a lot of similar pictures will usually result in most of them not getting approved.
If yo want an example of cg uploading done right, go look at Kagusuchi's posts. Almost all CGs, but, *in my opinion at least*, much more often than not perfectly fine uploads in their own right.
In other words, a lot of them are images I'd be willing to save in and of themselves, not just as part of a cg set. It's really not a coincidence that most of them aren't random hgame sex scenes. I invited him this morning.

So at the end of the day, even though H-stuff is allowed to be uploaded...Not many people here care for such things...Then mind telling me whats up with all those odd ad's we have on this site? 0_o;;;
Its like...oddest paradox I've seen in a while. @_@;;;;;;
