Sounds like a good idea but before I go that route, I did add a 'gallery' button to the navi bar and I'm trying to bring more awareness to this section of the forum.
It is possible to make your own albums in the gallery, each member having their own little personal space for their pictures or they can contribute to a already existing album started.
I'm still playing with this idea first...just to see if I can get others to get more involved in the gallery. Right now it's just there and though sometimes people do contribute pics...I don't think everyone is aware of the benefits it offers.
I don't know, we will see what others think of this suggestion and take it from there. I'm game for whatever works!
