I agree with Eric "I had assumed that ticking that box not only excluded the image from the Recent images but also the gallery. Hence my thought that it might be a good refinement to have." That would be useful as it cuts down duplicate photos in the gallery.

I suppose you could argue that if you alter anothers image it becomes your own - the idea of a tick box or linking with the "private" tick box would do the job. Just to clarify, do you want the "secondhand" image not inserted into your gallery at all or placed in your "private" gallery?

Certainly not in our own gallery but I don’t see why a modified secondhand image needs to be in the gallery at all? Provided the photo is retained in the thread where it’s been posted (and reposted), it doesn’t need to be a gallery image, does it? It’s really only germane to the thread discussion.

Only just seen the check box message says Splash screen not Random images. ![]() Would it be sufficient to just say …Check box to stop addition to Gallery. And include its exclusion in the splash screen as well? ![]() Click here to comment on this image.

OK - so how this currently works is that ticking that checkbox adds an entry in the database to say that image is "private" - you may want to keep some images private rather than lose access to them completely. The splash page and recent images skips any images with that marker. In the gallery in the "Modern Editor" theme the image entry has the private box ticked, you can also set the tick in the gallery to make a visible image private. What I propose is that there is a second checkbox on the reply image posting page to stop display of the image in the users gallery but of course the image still needs to be uploaded to the server and entered in the database. There will simply be an extra indicator to be used in the view gallery routine.

Chris, if this involves a lot of b*ggeration don’t bother. In hindsight the number of people posting images doesn’t warrant another option. It would be easier to send those 4 or 5 people an email reminding them that any modified “secondhand” images need to be deleted from their album ….if they don’t want them there. That’s what I’ve done and will do so in the future as I am sure I will forget to tick the relevant box at one time or another.

I have now reconstructed the gallery database, so all images you have uploaded will now show in your own gallery. Files uploaded stay in the gallery directories so they can be shown in threads even when you delete them from your gallery. Where files were missing from the database they will not carry the "don't show" marker so you will need to prune your gallery images if you want them removed from your gallery - just click on "delete" above each image. It actually deletes nothing - just sets the "don't show" marker.
