Hey,
someone changed an upload of mine.. i thought it's a joke so i changed it back.. now i see that all of my BIG Pics where changed, now it looks like that all of my pics r child posts, but that's not true.. they r bigger than the "parent" posts, and have better quality.

So if u read this buddy who changed it, come on and tell me what your problem is!

Bigger does not mean better. I looked at a few of your "big" images and they were just pointless upscales of the other version. They introduce more artefacts and blurring and no additional detail.

If it's you doing the upscales, stop that. Bigger is not better. More quality is better, and these aren't.

Hmm, it seems I mixed up the pics I was looking at, my apologies.

Anyway, this is why having a history of all the other post information like parent and rating would be useful. Then you could see who messed it up.

I don't specifically remember doing this with anything you uploaded, but I do know that about 2 out of 3 times I try to parents something I do it the wrong way around (ie, I put the parent that I intended to be the child). I usually go back and fix it when that happens, but I might not be the only one who has that problem.

Although it's a mega-selfish request, perhaps there could be a "child" field in the Edit menu in addition to the parent field? I know I could just not be stupid, but I reckon programming around my stupidity might be faster.

A post can have only one parent but many children, so.. IMO a child field is not necessary.

I don't know you enough to hate you, but I already hate your (lack of) spelling. Please read and follow forum #2156.

I am not, and never was, referring to your command of English. The only thing I care about is using netspeek like "u" or "r", and disregarding common punctuation rules like "after a fullstop comes a capitalised word". I can even understand problems with commas if you come from a language that doesn't use them, but those I mentioned don't even require any mental effort, hell, it requires conscious effort to substitute "you" with "u".

It's not necessarily Perl. The regular expression substitution operator s/// is a lot older than Perl.

True, but it's most common in Perl, and I don't think it's part of any of the standardized (e.g. POSIX) regex systems.
