While responding to Graham's request to see if the gallery was working for me (it was ok for me by the way) I noticed something that is perhaps blindingly obvious but I hadn't considered...and I wonder if it's important?

Every image that we post on a thread goes automatically into OUR gallery. This means that if you alter and repost another members image, for the purpose of making a point in a thread, that altered images goes in YOUR gallery.

I have a copy of Jonathan's waterfall (for example) in my gallery.

I therefore decided that wasn't right and set about deleting the 6 pages of images that weren't mine...some that were modified (to make a point) beyond being worthy of going in ANYONE's gallery. Not exactly how I imagined we should showpiece OUR work.

It maybe that's what we have to accept with the way the software works. Deleting them from the gallery hasn't removed them from the threads...so their relevance to the text is retained. But it's a shame our own artistry in our gallery is punctuated with other people modified photos.

I also noticed deleting one photo on pages 2-6 kept returning me to the page 1 of the gallery. So I had to keep returning to the last page I was working on before continuing. Could it keep you on the page you are editing .....it would speed up the deleting of dross process?  Assuming others are also bothered about the erroneous images in their gallery?

If you edit anyone's photo and post it, it is effectively your photo now, so goes in your gallery.

I will see if there is some way to identify the edited version and not add it - but don't hold your breath!

I am aware of the annoyance of the way the return from deletion goes back to the start - something we inherited from the original author. I'll see if I can sort that out.

I must have missed Eric's post. o.O

I thought there was a checkbox for preventing posted images (in threads) from being stored in the gallery?

No - the checkbox prevents images going on the splash page - the gallery contains all images you post or upload.

It was only posted an hour ago Robert, so you are forgiven. :-)

Thanks Chris

I kept getting this message and could not see the gallery at all so contacted JK and since he made corections I can now see all images and up-load new ones. But notice that panel on left used to show all new images and still shows this same message:

NOT FOUND

The requested URL /photos/showmembers.php was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Graham,

I have updated the Ultra theme to show the left side images as well - is there a particular reason why you are not using the modern editor theme? Was there a problem with it on your machine, can't remember now, 'tis old age :lol:
