Looking for some help. Is it possible to replace an already uploaded image while keeping the comments. I have uploaded a shot which I had not completed processing but is the same image etc just the wrong one added. Is this possible?
Leonie @onie is correct. So if you want to keep the comments you could move the uploaded shot to one of your other albums, upload the correct photo and put a link to each one in the comments section. If that makes any sense at all! @brav
Wouldn't the comments be relevant to the image? I may put a pic of Brad Pitt up get lots of 'Wow's", "Gorgeous" and "Hot" and then replace it with a photo of me but keep the comments!!!!
@brav Have seen it done before Richard, you do lose all the comments. However, People have copied and pasted comments onto a word doc and then pasted as their comment with all the relpy info for each comment. Laborious, I'd say, bu it works :)
I think @grizzlysghost did something the other day that he was able to keep a link to the photo to keep the previous comments. Maybe he can chime in. (He may have just moved it to another album, and uploaded the new shot to the album the old was in.)
@frida Funny.
I think there is a very good reason you can't save the comments. Replacing an image by another image is like buying another car. You can't expect your new car to have the same crash test results even if it's the same brand, can you? If you upload a new photo because you think it's better won't mean your follower agree automatically. Even though most comments at 365 are nice and neat without many criticism.
Wouldn't it be handy to have a button like: 'copy a random 100 comments from anywhere on this site to my picture' Wow. I've never had 100 comments on 1 photo....
@brav hi, if you edit the photo in Picmonkey you can choose to overwrite it with a new image you upload then save it back to your project, that is currently the only way to "replace" a shot without losing the comments.
But wait, I have to ask...why would you want comments under the photo that they are not meant for? Unless it's an edit to the existing photo, I don't get it. :-)
@5unflow3r Thats the reason I wanted to change it. I uploaded the sooc shot and not the edited shot. So the comments would still apply as its the same shot just enhanced a little.
So I'll keep an eye on this. :p
