I'm new to Piwigo and imagine my confusion when I tried to upload images and it didn't work. I did some extensive debugging before realising that there wasn't ever any issue, just some very unfortunate UX design.

It looks like it's something wrong with the images. I didn't think I could upload them and ended up debugging my server for a long time before realising that there's no wrong and I just had to press the upload button.

OK, so the problem is the icon at the end of the line. You understood it as an "error" icon, instead of a "cancel" icon. I agree it can be confusing. We will change that.

Yes! I didn't know it was to cancel images until now. Thank you for the explanation. :)
