Sharing galleries between users?

Post by Biforous »

Working on my first tease atm, and upon creating a gallery I immediately got distracted seeing that its locator appears to be a unique hash, and I was thinking that might mean they could be shared! I was able to find some other ones around the forums, but inputting these in regrettably did not work (or rather, I assume not, as the editor preview couldn't get past "loading media" when trying to use them).
Is there a specific method for sharing them? Or is that simply not a thing?
If not, it's no big deal to me, but it would break my heart to know that gigabytes (terabytes? :unsure: ) of media is getting stored multiple times when it could benefit everyone if users could use others' preexisting galleries. I think it'd be great to be able to use existing sets for teases where images aren't really bound to a theme! (and especially for quickly getting a collection of specific fetishes, too)

Images are loaded via their hash as far as I can see. So data is not stored multiple times for the exact same image.
But galleries are objects that users can modify, so they should only have an id, not a hash. I didn't check, but I think they are just all stored inside of the JSON file you can download for your tease. You can share them with other users just by sending that file to them.

The gallery locator is actually a UUID unique to the tease so you can copy it but it won't have any images associated with it.
But it is possible to copy a gallery from another tease by copying the gallery object from the teases json file, adding it to your json file and uploading your json file. The same is also possible for individual images.

I don't know why it didn't work for you (maybe the images are no longer available?)

Ah, interesting! I fear whoever created the tease with enough galleries to warrant an ID system that big, lol.
Good to know about the json files tho, will keep that in mind going forward. Thanks!
