  I could swear this is the third time I've seen this image. And there are some others that have seemed familiar. Anyone else notice this?

  It's possible, yes. As the number of images still in the "pool" gets smaller and smaller, we've found that we start seeing images more than once. Kosmala is aware of this, and will be processing the data to remove multiple identifications by the same user id. Once the season 4 data is released (if it hasn't already been - I lost internet connection all day yesterday and most of today so playing catch-up here!) you should no longer see repeat images.

  Thanks! Good to know I'm not imagining things.

  No problem. And in fact I've since read in another thread that there appears to be a problem with the distribution of season 4 images, resulting in people getting them more than once, even though that shouldn't be happening. @Arfon, the Zooniverse admin person here, is aware, and looking into it.

  Found the thread - it's the one about Season 4 in the Announcements board:
