    Default "Flash" Category

    Can we get the "Flash" category fixed for uploads? People on FA seem to have a huge issue with somehow accidentally clicking "Flash" when they go to submit non-flash stuff. And there's no way to change it besides deleting it.

    What's weirder is that you can change "artwork" to "flash" by editing the info, but you can't change "flash" to "artwork". Why?

    Anyways, it's getting annoying seeing people constantly mis-categorize things as flash, so...

    -Make us able to change "flash" to "artwork" in the submission info after upload
    OR
    -Make it so that if you choose "flash", it will check the file to see if it's a SWF or not, and pop up an error message if it's not a SWF.
    OR...
    -increase the distance between the Flash button and the "next step" button. Since apparently people keep accidentally clicking it.

    This needs to be in the "suggestions" forum.
    Though you're right, it is one of those things that kinda makes no sense. Thought it'd help if people either A: Correctly submit the item to their gallery or B: Convert the image from an SWF to a PNG or other image format so it may be uploaded outside of the flash category.

    Pretty sure most people don't use SWF to post still images :V

    I actually HAVE seen people use the SWF format for still images...
