I'm really glad you have added the photo gallery Nicko.

It's fun to look at the work done by the professionals and non-pros alike.

My only comment is that it works kind of oddly and unintuitively. For example, I have to click through several pages to take a look at Kyle's breads and in the meantime, all kinds of other pics come up on the page rather randomly.

I'd like to be able to click on one pic, then see the other options by that poster come up.

Nicko, it's great. I agree that it's a bit random, though, but that means I see too many pictures rather than not having access to them! Thanks again for working so hard to get this feature up and running.

I agree with the 'randomness' aspect... I find the pictures to fantastic input to the site, but just a bit difficult to maneuver.

I have removed the empty comments that were getting posted when someone rated a photo. Also changed the layout slightly in an attempt to make it more user friendly.

Great addition, it would be super to have some more narrative on the pix.

Hey Nicko,
I was trying to post a little photo essay, but can't seem to get the photos listed in the right order.
I can go down to the bottom and sort them by posting time and so forth, but can't figure out how to save it so it will come up that way when others take a look at the album.

Maybe I was trying to be too cute.... Sorry

Check it out and let me know what you think.
It's in personal albums titled "Why I go vegetarian during the summer."
