Why are sprites being silently converted to PIXI?

This silent conversion process bugs me, because although I think converting sprites to PIXI is good, I feel that its basically being done invisibly to the point that its impossible to keep track of which sprites are converted and it also makes it harder to notice when a spites you are interested in is among the sprites that got a conversion.

well we can't constantly tell what's being moderated and what isn't

you know there's a search filter with a tool field right
You can keep track of sprites that haven't been converted. They have the 'remoderation' tag.

1. It is as simple as whenever a sprite is updated, the date added field is updated to the time the conversion was applied. No need to make a forum post on the topic.

2. Considering the number of sprites I am interested in, I would have to do that several times.
We went out of our way not to mess with the original fields when organizing this, we care more about the original submission dates being right than about how it looks to people as it's being done. Just wait till it's over if you can't handle it for now.

It was front page news.. Not really that silent. Besides the remoderation tag, I notice folks are putting in the description that it has been converted for use with pixi. It's not really my place to say so but maybe the descriptions should say they have been converted. (Or maybe that's already a thing.. I don't know.)
Filter by tool, PIXI has been added there. I think that's enough.

It shouldn't be in the descriptions themselves because in one or two years, people won't have a clue why it being converted to PIXI is relevant because by then it'll long have been the standard.
By the way, just for clarity, the "remoderation" tag is on sprites that AREN'T yet remoderated. It's removed once they're finished.
