Edit
A compressed or downscaled version of an image, created by a website to reduce load times or save bandwidth.
Samples should not be uploaded to Danbooru. To avoid uploading a sample, paste a link to the image on the upload page, rather than downloading the image to your computer then uploading it. Given a link to the image, Danbooru will automatically find the best-quality version of the image available.
It is Danbooru policy to either replace samples with the full-size version, or delete them if the full-size version is already on Danbooru. You can ask for samples to be replaced in topic #16765, or flag them for deletion if the full-size version is already uploaded.
Not to be confused with sample watermarks, which are promotional images with a "SAMPLE" watermark. Also not be confused with revisions or alternate resolutions of the same image produced by the artist.
