Reddit - Random Gallery

sight

Hello,

Not sure if anyone has run into this issue. I post from time to time on Reddit. Mainly it has been pictures of my new puppy. I usually go to the gallery, pick a picture, get a link, and paste a medium or large size link to Reddit. Then I just make a comment on the reddit link with the gallery link.

Reddit has the option to do a quick preview of the image that is linked for any post before. The problem is when you click the ">+" down on my post it brings up a random gallery of babies...

My reddit post - this is where you need to click the >+ to see babies, but if you click the title you get the correct picture.

That seems to be a case of where Reddit seems to use some old cached embed on their end. Looking at the source code in web developer in Chrome of your page while the slideshow is running, I can see this code:

Accessing the link, you'll end up at the baby slideshow.

I'd report the issue to reddit as that seems like an issue in their system where their system somehow makes a connection between your photo on SmugMug and some other SmugMug user's content likely previously posted on Reddit.

To the best of my knowledge, this isn't anything SmugMug has influence over and only Reddit could address this.

Thanks, I will post to reddit bugs and see if they can figure it out.
