 Yes is this possible please?

 I was added photos to a set to help complete it and after it was completed, I was reviewing all the cards.  While doing so I noticed that a scan entered by some else was turned sideways instead of the correct orientation.  I turned on editing and clicked on the rotate button and it kicked me to the home page.  I tried again and it did the same thing.  Ultimately, I had to submit a new photo to correct the issue.  Can I not rotate some one else's picture or is this an issue that is just now being discovered?

New suggestion:

I like that idea. And in response to what Vrooomed said I thought maybe a notation for #'d parallels when an entire set (minus exceptions) all have the same serial numbering, just put "SN /50" etc so that a collector can possibly identify or verify the parallel he has by that notation.

For example Gold SN/100, Silver SN /50, etc on the parallel overview page.

 In addition to being able to edit card numbers, I'll just go ahead and request the ability to edit set names & dates.  This is mainly because of all the errors I'm making as I quickly backfill all the missing Japanese sets, and it would ultimately save the Admin my bombardment of "please fix my mistakes" emails.

I  would also like to request an "alias" option for players who go by more than one name, or who might have multiple spellings that are frequently used (loads of Japanese players whose names start with, or end with, the letter 'O', can usually be found both with and without an "H" following the "O".  That leds to lots of instances of "Takahiro Saitoh" vs "Takahiro Saito" or "Keiji Ohbiki" vs "Keiji Obiki".  There are also instances where Taiwanese players use their actual name in the CPBL, but a modified version of it in Japan, such as Dai-Kang Yang  (CPBL) vs Daikan Yoh (NPB) or Tai-Yuan Kuo (CPBL) vs Taigen Kaku (NPB).  Somewhere in the background, you've already taken care of a few of these, like Karl Rhodes vs Tuffy Rhodes.

 Hmm.. on that same thought.. would baseball reference/sports reference have any interest in it being reciprocal which could drive traffic to both here and there. They have a spot at the bottom of  each players page for other links and resources. Would they be willing to add something like "See all known sports cards of player X" or some such to their pages?

 I know they dont *need* more traffic.. but just like Ive been told that a wealthy person wont usually turn down oppurtunities to make more money.. a website usually wont turn down an oppurtunity to drive more traffic.. since it means that its more eyes for their sponsors, more people that would potentially want to become a sponsor AND it would add another feature to their site.
