that seems like a ton of work for you moderators. why don't you post a note when people sign on explaining this and ask them to go through their photos and delete duplicates themselves. i'll do mine today. |

I tried to do this with duplicate views of a few of my cakes. They only had a couple of favorites, but they still couldn't be deleted by me.
So, can that rule be temporarily lifted while this job is being done? |
I don't know about that, will have to ask but if you PM me the link for the photo that you would like removed, I can do it for you. |

That would be nice.
If you contact them, they will remove it for you - I had that done when I made a duplicate cake that I liked better then my original. It only had 3 saved favs but wouldn't let me delete it so I followed the contact link and they removed it within a couple of days. I did have to send two requests, but it was in the middle of switching to the new server so I'm sure it would get done faster now. |

Please remove this one
http://www.cakecentral.com/cake-photo_1042313.html
I have a better pic of it uploaded with the serving cake, but I couldn't remove this one because it has 16 favs.
Is there a way in the future to add the names of the CCers who save your pic? That way we could contact them if we remove the photo. |

For those of you who may not know KathysCC is a moderator for gallery pictures. She is taking up the majority of this job. I am sure she will love to help as much as she can, but if she can't I'm sure somehow between all of us we can answer it. Thank you. |

Thank you for doing this! I realized something, if you see a duplicate photo, you can report it as well.
This will save a lot of space on the website and make it a TON easier to see all kinds of cakes. |

I had no idea this thread was here or what it was about. The only reason I checked it out was because the OP was flayvurdfun.
I have read about this in the lounge area but I think if you want more people to be aware of this perhaps a more detailed title is needed ie. Duplicate photos to be deleted from gallery or something along those lines.
Just my 2cents!!

Can someone make a tutorial on how to make a collage? One of my duplicates was deleted where i showed a feature, which people in another forum loved and made the cake pop out for the recipient. got a lot of questions about that one feature. If I knew how to make a collage, I would have done that, but... I am pretty much computer illiterate, never had one in school. Would appreciate any help, as I am sure quite a few other people would as well. I do not want to clog up CC, but I'm getting to a point slowly, thx to CC, where I actually am making nice cakes and might be able to help others as well. |

I am all for only one pic of each cake, pick ONE and use it. Lately every time I go to upload my picture and eagerly go to look for it on the main page it is there for a VERY short time only to be replaced by three different views of the same cake. I know how much everyone enjoys compliments and constructive critisism but I don't stand a equal chance against three of the same pic. I'm sure some will consider this whining but I would just like an equal chance. |
