Issue + idea regarding clarifying specific problems with reviews

Dear IMDB. For a while now you've been changing your website. You've made it harder to post reviews. Your moderators seem to pay very close attention to specific wording. It is not that easy to make quick changes to reviews anymore. Being able to moderate reviews one has posted and editing them in t

Posting Still Images: file size

message today, posting movie stills in JPG format " "Error uploading image Images must be between 50kB and 12MB in size" The 24kB images are nicely hi-def really. I don't see any problem with them. Can this size requirement be reviewed and downsized? It seems like the .JPG is pretty compact, but giv

2nd Unit Director/Assistant Director Should be Different Departments/Categories.

So, as ADs are completely separate to 2nd Unit Directors I fully believe that they should be able to have their separate sections. The AD department are completely different to what the 2nd Unit Director has to do.

Would be great if I could put all the images from a scene next to each other. Or all the images of an actor next to each other. Better to notice du

May we please add a custom comment writing option for editors?

I think it's time to give editors a better reason for rejecting our submissions. I think "Unable to Verify" is a vague example and I think the editors should give us a more in-depth reason by writing an extended comment in the blank box for them to write.

Details people. Details.

I do enjoy the trivia and user input here on IMDB, but there’s a few things that could use improvement. 1. Release dates. For God’s sake, not just the year, but the actual release date! Come on.

why does a release date need a country?

I'm adding titles from a streaming classical music site (medici.tv), and don't really understand why the release date needs a country. When a title becomes available on this site, it's available worldwide. You have a "worldwide" option for the Distribution company. Why not for the release date?

Add Images

I regularly contribute data to IMDb. I don’t use IMDbPro. I understand I can add images to title pages but not to name pages. Many name pages are lacking primary images.
