Oh, no. Not a threat. Just describing how the system works. You pays
your money and you take your chances.

Every effort is being made to try and duplicate that experience. The
original ZX implementation wasn't quite so enjoyable. This design
looks more like what you see in Flickr.

I'm looking forward to hearing from those who are experienced with the
way the LUG gallery is configured.

Hmm. Sounds like a group-friendly implementation to me. :)

I've got something working on my other gallery site that I'm getting
the bugs worked out. For some reason, it's not playing nice with the
gallery-tree structure in the tope site. I'm doing something wrong.
Another feature that I haven't spent time figuring out yet is the
email-to-gallery trick. It wouldn't get any simpler than that.
But given the fact that most of the people who have signed up have
posted at least one photo, it doesn't appear to be too hard. Other
than Chuck, I don't think anybody has asked for help.
Image sizes are now 900. Hopefully that didn't screw up too many
uploads. I think I'm done playing with that. The 900 width is as much
as the template allows for viewing on 1024 wide screens without
horizontal scrolling.
BTW, there is a pano plugin available... Not iThingy friendly, though.
The more features we turn on, the greater the risk to the site.
