At the moment, it's one-time. We've opened issues and emailed the developers of PostyBirb about this, but they don't seem interested in genericizing their Philomena support over locking it to Derpibooru only. Unfortunately, we don't have a lot of control over that.

I'll bring it up with our developer to possibly set up recurring imports, but I honestly don't know how the importer works since I'm not a dev.

A question about this.

Once your name/ID is added, does your art automatically get imported from, for example, Derpibooru automatically on a regular basis? Or is it a one-time thing, intended for large-scale importation?

I ask because I'm one of those people who upload to a lot of different sites (FA, e621, Pillowfort… about 14, not including various discord servers) through the magic of PostyBirb. One of the main deterrents for me uploading my work here regularly is simply that there's no convenient way to do so when I bulk-upload to the many different sites where I have an account. As far as I know, there isn't any way to add other sites to PostyBirb manually for upload.

The importer is primarily intended for either art you made or art of your OC. Topical tags are something you can choose to upload on your own, but isn't the purpose of the tool.

Oh, it looks like this isn't necessary! Sorry for bothering y'all staff, I thought only the bot would keep the IDs in place. (I'd still like that though.) If I upload this all myself I can curate it too!

We apologise, it seems this request fell through the cracks. Twilight said he will be available to do it on Thursday, we'll get back to you on that.

I am quite busy the last few weeks, but will try to make time to import the requested art soon-ish.

Ooh, can I get my art on here?
"artist:gangrene" on both sites. There might be a duplicate or five, some of my art already got here through the idw tag and artist:greyscaleart

Sure, just imported those images. They got their original IDs, thus they don't show up at the top of the main page of manebooru.

By the way, we currently are close to 500.000 images in Manebooru \o/

A literal month later, here it is
https://derpibooru.org/galleries/14807

Turns out a bunch were taken off Derpibooru with DNPs, so I'm asking those artists for permission to upload those.

In continuation to the previous post: we've just gone ahead and imported the art of a dozen or so artists with absolutely no DNP on Derpi, a few of them fairly popular. We are gonna see how it plays out.

I'm unsure that things are going as intended with importing art, or maybe I misunderstand intentions. Namely, as far as I could gather, the intention was to only bring art over when artists have given permission to import it. The artist Hoofclid is a friend of mine, and 89 images of his were imported from Derpibooru without him knowing about it. Now, I don't mean to say those images should be deleted, he did say he was fine with it when I asked him, just that he was unaware it had happened. What I'm saying is that current operations don't make sense to me. If we're importing art without asking artists like other boorus are doing, then we should be importing a lot more art. But if we're only doing so when we have artist permission, how was Hoofclid's art imported without his being aware of it?


We imported art from a few hundred artists that haven't made pony art in a year or more (and we keep doing so when we find additional ones), and it looks like Hoofclid was mistakenly flagged as one. Probably one of us read some dates wrong and screwed up the math. We apologise for the mistake.
The idea in this was preservation, and that contacting artists that have potentially left the fandom would not be feasible. As always artist preference has priority, so it's easier to fix a false positive like this than to contact all those people and wait for a response that might never come.

As a matter of opinion (although I'm well aware my opinion counts for nothing here), importing art from artists who are not DNP shouldn't be a problem, and would get us to much of the bulk of art that other boorus have.

I personally agree that anyone without a DNP shouldn't be a problem, but the team has good reasons to be cautious. We don't want to seem presumptuous or come across as disingenuous, or hurt or relationship with artists. There are many artist we've contacted asking for permission that have never replied or gotten back to us, despite being active, so we're stuck in an impossible situation. "Silence is consent" is not an appealing policy to have, but getting permission for everything is also not feasible. We're still trying to figure out a good middle ground.

The requested art should all be imported now. If there is any imported art which you want changed or removed (or change the uploader name to your name), please just use the report button on the image so that a mod can do as you wish.

The art album from furbooru also got imported as requested.
