上半年投稿的Interbaltional journal of rock mechanics and mining science. 在经历一次大修后，编辑部让小修，第一次共两条意见，其中一个是highlight字数太多，第二条小修意见如下：

Please reduce the number of figures to 15 or even less. You may combine some figures to one, remove some unimportant figures, or move some less significant figures to a supplementary file

然后我就将一些图片进行了删除和合并，最终缩减到15幅图。结果返回去后，三天后又是小修，这次意见还是图片的：

The quality of some figures (e.g., Figs. 1-3, 14 and 15) should be further improved to save space during copy-editing. Please do not use light-color (e.g., yellow) for curves.

我的回复如下：

Response: Some unimportant figures are deleted, and the manuscript and table are accordingly revised. Now the number of figures is reduced to 13. The details of revision are listed as follows.
Figures:
(1) Fig.1: deleted subgraph*********;
(2) Fig. 3: deleted subgraph**********;
(3) Fig. 6: added subgraph*************;
(4) Fig. 11: deleted subgraph***********;
(5) Fig.12: deleted subgraph***********, the curves of ***** were also replotted.
Table:
(1) Table 1: removed **********, and added ***********
Manuscript: the text was revised according to the revised figures and table.

现在修改稿已经返回去了，目前状态是decision pending。可是我现在心里特别慌，我是不是理解错编辑的意思了，我认为是一些不重要的图太多了，就主要进行了删除（因为我有很多图里面是包含几个部分，我就讲=将一些图里面不太重要的部分进行了删除），只有线条颜色太浅的图进行了重绘。不知道编辑老师会不会认为我修改的不认真。因为看到有虫友曾有过小修悲剧的经历，因此特别担心。请有经验的老师和朋友指点一下，小弟在此谢过了 返回小木虫查看更多
