Well, it's semantics then. I don't think it's a double post if there's something significantly different. Coloring a BW piece is a significant change. Coloring can take a long time to do. Heck, I colorized a Supergirl drawing a few weeks ago and it took me longer to do it than some manips I have done. Of course, by the time I got it posted the original had bubbled down the list a bit.
I do think it's a double post if you put a drawing up, then notice and erase a 10 pixel line and repost it 5 minutes later with a comment like "wow, look, I cleaned it up, waddaya think now?". I agree that I don't want to see this type of thing.
So what should the grace period be? Don't post a colorized drawing or a further modified one until there are at least 5 newer posts? The whole point is that you might want people to see the difference, and if the original version is way down the line then some folks aren't going to realize it was there.
And there are just some days when nothing new gets posted for quite a while and then all of a sudden there's an avalanche.
I say, enforce a 3-per-day posting limit (across all galleries) and if you want to post something over and over go ahead but you only got 3 tries that day. You'll probably do more than erase a 10 pixel line.
