Topic: Is there a way?

Posted under General

Is there a way to see a list of ALL the images on the site? No single tag covers EVERY image so trying to go by tags keeps bringing me back to images I've already seen...if I could get to a listing of everything then I could work from the oldest images on the site to the newest and could avoid loading the same image over and over again.

...the index page...? just put order:id in search bar and it will sort the images starting from oldest

Tags are exclusive filters, so searching with no tags will get you every image on the site.
Edit: This is, as Commander_Eggplant says, the default page you get when you click on "Posts".

If you want to go from oldest to newest try order:id_asc. You can't seek to pages greater than 750 (I guess because, for complicated tag searches, the servers have to do some trawling), so you can also try order:id_asc id:>=6268 where 6268 is the number of the post you left off on.

For advanced searching techniques, visit the cheat sheet.

Edit x2: Actually, it turns out that order:id_asc does exactly the same as order:id. I was thinking of order:-id, which is the default and does nothing. My bad.

You can actually go past page 750, but the page controls turn into "next" and "previous" and the back control only works based on your browser history. The only limitation is that you can't skip forwards using page numbers larger than 750. Note the pagination links at the bottom of page 750 If you're just looking to see all of the images, starting from the newest and going backwards is the way to do it, as that's the way the site UI functions best.
