Commas between tags are no longer necessary. This prevents people from using spaces in tags, but in the long run I think we're going to be better off. To all the people who suggested that I do this a long time ago, yes, you were right, I was wrong. :)
Hopefully these will help keep tags at least a little cleaner going forward, but realistically, there's a lot of manual work that will have to be done to make tags not suck.
There's no good automated solution to tagging issues, although I can add some checking to make sure people don't use hashtags.
Back in the "olden days" we used to have a hierarchical system of pre-made tags, but things got miscategorized all the time, even when there were categories that were clearly more appropriate, and it was an even bigger mess than we have right now.
It might be worthwhile to look into defining tag hierarchies and synonyms, but at the time of this post, there are 11,649 tags, so it's not particularly realistic at the moment to go through them manually.
Your favorites definitely should show up in your favorites tab. Can you post a link to a piece of art that you've favorited so I can look into what's going on?
Yeah, I like the idea of splitting technical specifications from subject matter, although I definitely want to allow user tagging on both.
Looks pretty sweet.
I don't really have time to test, but I'll check it out once it's finished. :)
Thanks. I'll look into fixing this stuff.
The search issue will hopefully be fixed when the search index is done being rebuilt. The rest I'm going to have to do when I get a chance.
Collections aren't currently included in favorites. I may add them at a later date.
They put quotes around the list of tags. I removed the quotes and it worked fine.
Moved this to the feedback forum, since it potentially describes a bug.
Okay, so I made a couple of changes to tagging.

I went ahead and removed it so we can re-publish.
