Not really. It would still dump pics with errors or lacking in general quality onto the site. With AI, you take the factor time nearly out of the equation. Normally an artist can maybe publish one full pic (colored, shaded, the whole 9 yards) once a week (depending on time they have to work on it). I can get a pic up to snuff in a few hours. Professionals, people with art skills and a decent setup, probably even faster. So art limited itself in the past, by taking time. Quality = Time, but not with AI.
I say for AI this limit should be Quality. I don’t mean is it good artistic, but it is free of errors, are the details clear and so on. Stuff you can measure, since “art” is subjective. Yes, you can’t force people to stick to these standards, but you can say: “If that is what you want to publish, do it somewhere else.” There is a reason why most other sites have strict rules and upload limits.

It’s good to see the discussion around metadata in AI-generated images. For those of us sharing our creations, ensuring privacy and controlling what information is embedded is a practical concern. Tools that help to remove metadata are really useful for streamlining the process before uploading. This helps keep things clean and focused on the image itself.

It’s a really good point, Thoryn, about being mindful of what data might be embedded in image files. The suggestions for exiftool and jimpl.com are solid, and for anyone looking for a quick, browser-based option that processes images locally, a tool like remove-metadata.org can also be quite handy for stripping out that kind of information.

The discussion about image metadata is quite insightful, especially the concerns around potential personal data embedded in files. It makes a lot of sense to be careful with that, particularly when sharing. Having tools to check and remove metadata is definitely valuable for maintaining privacy. For anyone looking for options, there are also web-based tools like the one at remove-metadata.org that can help simplify the process.

The discussion regarding metadata in image uploads, particularly concerns about personal data and file optimization, is relevant. For those looking to ensure privacy and reduce file size by stripping EXIF, GPS, and other details, a browser-based tool like remove-metadata.org could be a useful option before sharing images.

It’s interesting to see the discussion around metadata here, especially the concern about personal info like Windows account data. Tools like exiftool and jimpl.com are definitely useful for stripping that out. Does anyone have a preferred method for bulk processing images to remove metadata, or do you usually handle them one by one?

The discussion about image metadata is a practical one for anyone sharing digital assets. Being mindful of embedded data, especially personal or workflow specifics, is a solid approach. While dedicated tools like exiftool or jimpl.com are mentioned, having options to remove metadata directly in the browser, such as through an image metadata remover, adds another layer of convenience for builders focused on efficiency and privacy.

The discussion around image metadata, especially with AI-generated content, is very pertinent. It’s wise to consider privacy implications and workflow complexities when deciding whether to retain or strip metadata before sharing. While tools like exiftool and jimpl.com are helpful, for a quick, browser-based solution to remove metadata from various image formats, a dedicated online image metadata remover can be very efficient.

The conversation about stripping metadata from image uploads is quite relevant, especially when considering privacy and file size. Thoryn’s concern about personal info in image data is valid, and it’s good to see various solutions being discussed. For those looking for a quick, local way to clean images before sharing, a tool like this image metadata remover could be a practical step. How do these local, browser-based tools compare in terms of thoroughness to command-line options like exiftool?

MLP is all about characters. People care about them.
That’s just a pony transforming into a timberwolf. This concept was done many times. Would get more upvotes if it had some story, not just a transformation sequence.
Not bad, but not super interesting either. It’s just a fight and not a very dynamic looking one.
This is notable mostly for its technical merit.
That’s a reasonably good OC design. It doesn’t show any character traits though. Not to mention people care about ponies more than they do about dragons.
Good idea, execution could be better. Square books, text artifacts… I still upvoted it though.
Should I go on?

If Philomena had a feature for image sets, it would partially solve this problem (as well as the problem of regular artists posting one image with multiple different variations).

BUG REPORT:
When the upload form pre-fills some tags, for example username from Twitter, it still prefills it as prompter: instead of the new creator:. Also, the tag prompter needed should change to creator needed or creator name needed.

Default search

If you do not specify a field to search over, the search engine will search for posts with a body that is similar to the query's word stems. For example, posts containing the words winged humanization, wings, and spread wings would all be found by a search for wing, but sewing would not be.
