Is it possible to get a Spoiler or other sort of Tag to hide pictures until clicked on? For example, when someone posts a gnarly picture of their bloody mangled arm, to have it so that OP could flag it and you'd have to click on the picture to see it rather than get a full bloody pic right when you open the thread? That way they could tag it for people that might not want to see the gore. Also, the front page has a continuous feed of pictures posted. The gore pics show up there automatically as well. To clarify, I personally don't mind the pictures at first, but after I've seen it I'm kind of done looking at them. I'd imagine others might feel the same way. Being able to click again to hide it would be helpful there.
Yep, there's a spoiler tag that anyone can use when posting. Click the + icon in the editor and you'll see it {}
Ah, I didn't realize this was already implemented, my apologies. I looked at the buttons but didn't click through to the extras under +. Thank you. I suppose if the OP doesn't mark the pic, we could report it to you to be changed to spoiler tag? Or possibly if there were a context menu to 'minimize' pictures the user could do it themselves instead of bugging you? That might be the better option
Hmmm...reporting would work I guess for normal posts. Although after the first coulple posts it's unlikely you'd see it again anyway. I imagine you're referencing the one in the recent media block on the home page. That's actually in the gallery, not a normal thread. I'd need to look into see if there's a way for users to hide or block specific gallery images. Easy way for now is to perhaps upload a few more images to knock it further down the recent media carousel, so it's not viewable on the home page, but still visible on the new gallery photos page. I will look into the gallery settings though.
It's probably not worth that effort honestly. But yeah I think the best way to avoid bogging you down with reports would be for us to have the ability to hide an image in the post. Anyway, thanks for responding so quickly!
