Deletion request thread

That's my point, it's not just that one page. The entire pool is extremely low quality. Bad hands, bad feet and awful linework on every single page. That page was being used as an example.

The first part of your request was asking for a specific post, and then going that the whole pool should be deleted. Referencing a single post in that situation is rather silly given how the whole thing is set up. You shouldn't beat around the bush and just from the start stated that the whole pool should be deleted instead of targeting a specific image that can't individually be deleted without ruining the whole lot.

Yeah, because the rules for this thread said to have one image per post.

Thread rules said:
1.) Having one image per post is greatly preferred.

I wasn't beating around the bush. I got straight to the point after honoring the thread rules. There's a second sentence in that rule that got cut off that might be an amendment for multiple posts, but I can't see it so I'm going by what rules I can see.

I'm not trying to be annoying, but the rules tell me to do something then I get yelled at for doing it. I'm just trying to point out a pool of low quality artwork.

note #1385462. Yes, one note, not the whole post.

I was experimenting with solid background colors at small font sizes, trying to get rid of a persistent white border at the bottom of the note. As part of my experiment, I used a wider negative margin than my positive padding (padding:4px; margin:-5px). This code configuration apparently causes my version of Firefox to freeze up. After force-quitting and restarting, I just reversed the numbers (padding:5px; margin: -4px), but the crashes apparently messed up Danbooru's memory of the change, as it still retains the earlier version. The note looks bad, and any time I try to edit it, Firefox locks up on me again. If someone can delete the note, I can finish off that post by duplicating the proper version I've got in the lower left corner.

I can't seem to try and interact with it without freezing the tab (windows chrome, iOS Safari) or the browser (IE11).

Got it. Had to use the web inspector to reduce the size of the negative margin before mousing over the note.

Much obliged, and sorry for the trouble.

And I've done it again—note #1314251 in post #1919685. I was having trouble making the white edge disappear for the background color, and the way the edging increased/decreased didn't seem to correspond well with how I was adjusting the padding/margin, so I was adjusting the padding/margin numbers up and down in fairly rapid succession. This time, I made sure the margin's absolute value stayed lower than the padding's. However, when I set the padding to 16 and the margin to -6, I got the "Browser-Freeze Note" effect again.

Bearing in mind the "Web Inspector" solution hemoglobin mentioned last time, I tried using Firefox's built-in element inspector, but I couldn't figure out how to alter the note from there, assuming that's even possible.

Well I was gonna write instructions this time, but I'm too shit at communicating and so I just did it myself again.

It was a little harder in Firefox than it was in desktop Safari, because (it seems to me at least) Firefox's inspector's search function just doesn't work.

e: Were you able to find the note, and just couldn't figure out how to edit it?

Yes, I could find it in the element inspector; I could even read the content of the note, format coding and all. I just couldn't seem to alter it through the inspector's interface. Thanks again.

Now I'm left wondering why your specific padding/margin numbers work when they didn't for me; I could swear I tried reducing the margin to -4px while the padding was 16px, and I still got a white line visible on at least one edge of the box. Just when I think it's safe to play in the sandbox...

Well at that point what you have to do is double click on the line of code you want to edit, and once you've edited it, press return. (that just changes that line of code for as long as you have that page loaded, though, so you have to click on the note, edit it again, and save after that.)

Took me a bit to figure it out. Initially, I could only actually find the note content when I viewed it via the inspector's Debugger function. Then I located the proper lines of code in the Inspector function—by mouse-over on the note, which wouldn't have worked while the problem was in effect. The Find command only looks on the page itself, not the Inspector frame, so I'd have had to figure it out by mousing over the code lines and getting to the one that reacted by highlighting the note in question. At length, I finally noticed the drop-down triangle toggles at the left end of the code lines, and THEN I found the note content in Inspector. And yes, double-clicking does indeed seem to make the content editable.

I was still a bit thrown off because said code doesn't include the text content of the tag, just the formatting content. (Yes, that's what I want to edit, but it's not initially what I look for to spot the right note.) The initial display also abbreviates the formatting somewhat with an ellipsis, so I didn't spot the part I'd have wanted to edit until I double-clicked.

This is all telling you nothing you don't already know, but just in case someone with my level of ignorance/newbie-ness has to do this (or I have to remember later), I figure it's good to jot it down somewhere. Hopefully, I won't have to impose on your good graces for the same problem again.

The reason for it is because I gave my word that if that person that send that complain to me is able to show me where the artist ask for their work not to be distributed, I will delete it.
Would be most helpful if someone can actually tell me how to delete the image I uploaded if I am not suppose to request it here unless I have to "Flag" it everyday.

You can request them here, though it is actually more appropriate to request that the posts be banned in topic #10525. Deletions and bans are handled separately.

Users are unable to delete posts they've uploaded, as that ability was abused in the past with some users deleting all the posts they've uploaded due to throwing a fit or deciding that they no longer wanted any association with the things they've uploaded.
