If you find yourself bored or wanting to skirt your real responsibilities or like cropping cards, you can now help out the site by cropping some cards:

How does the system determine whether or not a card needs cropping?  There seem to be several in the list that look fine.

 You see, I look at those and I can see where most of them could use at least a little cropping here or there, so I guess it's subjective.

Too bad I can't crop on my phone.  I'll try to crop some tonight while watching football.  

The system makes the distinction based on User Name.  So right, some will need to be cropped and some not, just use your good judgement.

Thanks to all of those who have been cropping. 

More help with cropping = more time to work on new features and enhancements to the site!

A new dropdown box has been added next to "Status" to mark cards as "Reviewed" or "Problem".  Thanks to koloth42 for the suggestion.  So the four possible statuses are:

Not cropped: All cards set to this by default

Cropped: Automatically set to this after a card gets cropped

Reviewed: A member has looked at the card and deemed that no further action is needed

Problem: Wrong card, duplicate entry, unsalvagable crop job, etc.

Thanks,

I just tried out the new cropping help area and the drop down list where you can select reviewed is very helpful.  I was able to whip through the first page of card images in a few minutes.  Should make getting all the pending cards looked and go much quicker and smoother.  Thanks for the enhancement. :-)
