image sample
A compressed or downscaled version of an image, created by a website to reduce load times or save bandwidth.
Samples should not be uploaded to Danbooru. To avoid uploading a sample, paste a link to the image on the upload page, rather than downloading the image to your computer then uploading it. Given a link to the image, Danbooru will automatically find the best-quality version of the image available.
It is Danbooru policy to either replace samples with the full-size version, or delete them if the full-size version is already on Danbooru. You can ask for samples to be replaced in topic #16765, or flag them for deletion if the full-size version is already uploaded.
In some cases, an image sample may be because the original post was deleted before uploading and the image was recovered from an archival service (such as the Wayback Machine) that only saved the sample.
Not to be confused with sample watermarks, which are promotional images with a "SAMPLE" watermark. Also not be confused with revisions or alternate resolutions of the same image produced by the artist.
