I've been looking at the photo gallery person by person. There is some amazing stuff. Last week there was an upgrade and suddenly it looks different. Today, I realized it works differently also and have lucked into something.

Say you want to look through all of Ken Henderson's albums because you either want to read them all or you want to review a particular album you know he posted. Today, for instance, I wanted to look at his home grown TOAD brake system album. In the past, you just clicked on members, then K, then found Kenhender. All his albums were then displayed and you could browse to find the one you wanted.

Now it works different.

If you find Kenhenders you will see four most recent albums, four most popular albums, and four random albums. Nowhere is there a complete list or a link to a complete list.

HOWEVER, I discovered by accident that if I click on ANY of Ken's albums and then go back and click on his name, I do get the list of all his albums.

Just a work around. Billy said it's just the way the software works...today.

Kerry,

Bdub (Billy) is always tinkering with the photosite to make it work better, the recent changes made it "mo betta." I really like the
background color and the way the photos are presented.

I do have a pet peeve; contributors that use made up names so even if you know the persons name you can't find their photos.

I also would like to state it is NONE OF MY BUSINESS what people call themselves.

Regards,
Rob M.

Not that I expect anyone else to remember...

For years, I used the same screen name used on all sites and forums that I sign on too. "m000035" It doesn't mean anything but I seem to be able to get it on every site I use.

When the on-line forum was started, they auto-magicly signed up all of the email list users with names from the emails... so it is only on THIS forum that my REAL NAME is how I sign on.

I'm to stubborn to change.
