Deleting Galleries

Okay,  maybe just my stupidity, but I just went and accidentally deleted one of my galleries,  by clicking the little 'x' next to it on the "see more" page. I thought this would just hide it from my profile page, not delete it entirely!   yikes

Why is this so easy to do? Shouldn't there at least be an "are you sure?" message first?

Is there any way of getting it back? I'm not too bothered, but it is annoying.  sad

Re: Deleting Galleries

I fully support. The same thing happened to me, and I never bothered to get it back...

Support... it's never happened to me, but it sure sounds painful  sad

Hmph enjoy your fall - I get a lovely spring... without pans of new leaves.

Re: Deleting Galleries

Well, usually X's don't mean enhance or add or something, and usually mean delete...

The things is that galleries can easily be recovered if you remember the projects, but projects are actually a complete mix of all the sprites, scripts, and sounds...

The point is that it should make you confirm that you actually want to delete it, to stop you doing it accidentally.

Well, there's nothing wrong with accidentally deleting it because they are easily recoverable...

How do I recover it, then?  hmm

I don't see that they're easily recoverable, unless you've made a list of all the projects in the gallery. And that would kind of defeat the purpose of a gallery, would it not, which is essentially a list of projects?
