Also removed the delete image link for the same reason.
Opinions?

It makes the thumbnail pages cleaner and has the added benefit of making it easier to mark an image as primary that you've run across in a list, since now you don't have to find the corresponding thumbnail.

While you're fiddling with that page, could you increase the number of images we can see per page? The option for 200+ would be nice.

I think it would be quite heavy on the server to load such a large number of images on one page.

For example, Drago always posts DVD covers as the primary photo in the movies section instead of the DVD section. The consensus in the past was that posters should be the primary photo for movies and DVD covers for DVDs. A guy like Drago posts hundreds of pictures a day, so hundreds of primary photos need to be reverted back to the movie poster each day. With this new system it's pure chaos.

If someone it setting the wrong image to primary then that's a separate issue and needs to be sorted out some way, the method of setting the primary image is pretty irrelevant.
The new changes make actually make it less obvious and more difficult to change the primary image, so I would have thought this would happen less often.

And they're Primary for everyone--not just me. This is very destructive, as screenshots can now become the Primary image when there was a perfectly good poster already set as the Primary. Here is an example page where it happened:

Generally this is helpful as people want to replace the default posters from amazon. Looks like in that case it was not the right thing to do, there could probably be better messages to alert you that you have changed the primary images to avoid mistakes.
At the moment there is no way of setting the amazon image as primary I will fix that in the future.

Also, if you keep it like this could you move the make image primary to the right, under or around the Vote button? All interactions are left on the right hand side then. Also x2 I think instead of a text link, it should be a button so it appears a bit more obvious.
And nice work on making the top left image link directly to the primary image instead of back to the item's profile!
