Thanks guys :-) Hah, that's a nice new description someone added! I really came to discover this page while explaining about the gallery to someone who will need a new place to show their images after IF disappears. So I'm looking at it from the perspective of an artist who wonders if this will be a good place to start a gallery.
Replying to both Martin's and Maren's at the same time. Well yes, they are nearly the same answers anyway. Regarding the title of the gallery. Because I chose such a generic title, I wasn't sure if it was using the name I chose, or if it was automatically adding the username in front of " 's gallery". So no, I don't need to change it, at least not right now. But for example, if I were to add a new gallery, I would probably want to change the name. (When I first started my gallery, I had no idea it was possible to have more than 1 album/gallery. So that's why I gave it such a generic name.) (Actually a lot of people might be in this same boat.) And many artists probably would like the ability to move images from one gallery to another, change the titles, change the descriptions and choose the thumbnails. I will make a bug report for editing personal galleries. And another for the proportions of the thumbnail. Also, I'll make a mockup to show what I'm thinking. Unless I run in to a problem, I'll post it shortly.
