I go putting photos up (I have to put 'em in separate subdirectories by
submitter, optimize the size of every photo for download/viewing purposes
and also do a full set of thumbnails for each), I'd like comments on the
speed and general layout of the home page.

I think simple is better - maybe that's why I enjoy OM's so much <g>. The
page layout is great - simple, uncluttered, neat. Navigation couldn't be
easier. The top banner, olygallery.gif, looks to me to be about 1200 pixels
wide (I didn't actually measure it). For those with 21 inch monitors,
that'll work grandly, but it looks out of balance at lower resolutions.
Maybe 800 wide is a fair compromise. Besides that, I have only good things
to comment. Only question I have is must all images be made with Oly
lenses? I have a few I would consider for submission, but were made with
non-Oly glass (or mirrors as the case may be).
