And I forgot to specify "lego" on the entry. Now I can't edit that. But I think I should, instead of waiting a mod to do it. Or not?

Moved it for you. Currently, only users with media powers can move images and videos to different galleries.

If something like this happens again, just report it in the image cleaning thread so it can be in the correct gallery. I don't think non-media moderators should have the ability to move their images as it would have the potential to be abused. (correct me if I am wrong)

Any active media mod will tell you that users complain about you moving their images. Now, if they had the ability to move their own images, they would just move it back to the wrong gallery. How could this be prevented? It'd require a lot more code from James to keep a painful fight over where an image goes from happening than what would just be needed for a user to move their own image.

Now, if James wants to implement, say, a user-lock on images that mods can add, so that the uploader can't move it back, this might be a fine idea. Also, a lock from moving it after a few days of uploading will prevent users from moving them to irrelevant galleries days after uploading, an easy way to make a mess that the mods might not notice until much later.

If it's an image uploaded without an entry, I don't mind allowing them to move it to an entry. Keeping it without an entry is pointless unless they're being uploaded to get moved after an entry for them is made.

Moving between entries is a no go, as read in earlier posts.

Thanks!
