Gallery Favorite self-voting

In the gallery I have noticed that you can vote for your own designs. Is this an error or something that has not been fixed in the forum?
Just thought I'd notify everyone about it.

Really? You shouldn't be able to. I don't see the add favorite button on my designs and if I manually craft a url to vote for my own design it gets silently dropped. Are you seeing the add favorite button on your own designs?

I figured it out. if you get the capitalization of your name wrong it will let you log in but you will get the wrong options. ( Edit & Delete gone, Add favorite availible, etc.)

Thanks for the great tip. I found the bug and squashed it.

It seems to have happened again, but this time, some of my designs have the editing and deleting options, while most others have the favorite option instead.

So, does Forest Amulet have favorite option and Spiraling down a hole have edit/delete options?

Yes. Also, Hexagonal Circle Snowflake (that I tested the favorite button on) does not have an un-favorite button anymore, but it remains favorited.

So you were able to favorite Hexagonal Circle Snowflake as 'landonpeanut' even though you uploaded it as 'Landonpeanut'? Is it possible that you have a login session on some browser that predates my login fix and has you logged in as 'landonpeanut' instead of 'Landonpeanut'? You can tell by looking as the user links at the bottom of the navigation bar on the left. It should either say 'User Landonpeanut' or 'User landonpeanut'.

Is there a way to delete a folder and its contents so that you dont have to delete individual files?
