Whoa, Moose, please don't take my remarks personally. I'm sorry but I
don't have any impression whatsoever of your galleries or how many
images they contain. When you post something, I look at it with
interest, but I'm just focused on the photos and I move on. I've
looked at a ton of photos by great folks on the list and I have almost
no lasting impression of what they have going web-wise. That's just
me.
Some people seem to like Flickr. I can't stand it. I look at one
photo if the link goes properly to it and then I go away. I feel like
I'm standing at the threshold of a vortex of web goo. This ain't
about you.
Peace,
Joel W.
