Please re-crop these images. Your images should be cropped, so that the bug fills up most of the frame.

Hi, Bob. Can you clarify- I e
Hi, Bob. Can you clarify- I entered these separately because I found them at different locations and was unsure of their ID. Do you want one inage removed and placed in the other entry? I am not clear if that was the issue or if by cropping you mean that the images are processed inappropriately (they should be more zoomed in?). Thanks for your guidance.

Yes
You can re-crop the original files and save them with a new filename, on your PC. (anytime)
Then you can select "edit" and replace these images with those better crops. Please let me know if you need any more help. OK!!!

Yes, they may have been found in different locations, but they are the same species.

OK done. Can removal of old
OK done. Can removal of old images only be done by Guide curators?

Yes
The editors can send any images to Frass, (for a 30 day review before being automatically removed) but only you can directly edit/delete your own images.
There is no need to add new images of the exact same view. Please select "edit" and then browse to the new crops to replace. After that, you can then edit/delete the extra copies.
