Here's another case where frassing is unnecessary.
If you wanted to post a more closely cropped image, you can simply go to the original posting and click on Edit. Click on Browse and upload a new image to replace the old one. The problem with the frassing and reposting method that you are using is that it first loses all the comments that were made to help you ID your image. The next contributor cannot learn from those comments because you frassed them along with your image. Secondly, any links that were made to that first image will also be lost. If someone used your image as a thumbnail to make a point in another comment, that thumbnail is now gone and leaves in its place a comment which can't be understood. And again, don't feel bad. We all learned about these ideas by making the same mistakes, and having someone explain them. For us, it was explain them more than once! Beautiful dragonflies. Post some more!
