Moved from Frass.

 
Thanks, Chuck
You are stronger than fate!

 
lol I win? :p
lol I win? :p

 
Yay!
Yay! We saved it!

Hangin' Around
This just keeps hangin' around, doesn't it? I, for one, will hate to see it go.

 
lol this picture makes me lau
lol this picture makes me laugh every time I look at it.

The Way It Was....
Explained to me, is that each user has the ultimate decision of a picture's destiny. If the person who took the picture thinks it is worth saving, then they can move it either back to the guide, or in the case of an ID Request, place it in it's proper guide page. I feel a person knows (or should be able to tell) whether or not his or her image either has quality or is not up to "standard." I've personally deleted some of my images, after they were identified, because they just didn't come up to the level of my other photographs.

That said, there's just something about this photo that makes me not able to look away. Surely, that's worth something.

 
Let's make this very easy.
Dear M. Vengeance:

If you don't want to save this photo, do nothing. But if you do want to save it, click on tag.

Next, click on this link: http://bugguide.net/node/view/595/bgimage

Then click on add tagged image.

Viola!

Now, is everybody happy? (I'll bet not, but I'm LOL.)

 
geez I didn't think people ca
geez I didn't think people cared that much. I followed your instructions and added it lol

 
Added? Uh, maybe not.
It's still showing up as Frass (see top line on the page.) Instead, it should be saying all this:

Home » Guide » Arthropods (Arthropoda) » Hexapods (Hexapoda) » Insects (Insecta) » Winged Insects (Pterygota) » Dragonflies and Damselflies (Odonata) » Dragonflies (Anisoptera) » Common Skimmers (Libellulidae) » Pennants (Celithemis) » Calico Pennant (Celithemis elisa)

Please try again!

 
oh well
oh well

Much better than frass
This is a great shot - why is it being frassed?

 
it was taken with a craptacul
it was taken with a craptacular point and shoot camera, my only guess is because the head is out of focus? I don't know, there is detail in the wings and what not. Who cares? :p I put the pic up to ID the dragonfly, and this website didn't even help me out with that.
