I love using the Gallery and visit it every day if I can there really are some great pictures posted.
One improvement I'd like to see is a method of playing members' pictures in a slide show. I really have no understandiung of how these things work and it may not even be feasible, but I'd love to be able to click on a gallery and then sit back, letting the photos appear one by one on the screen. At the moment, it's all a bit laborious.

Incidentally, I put in some suggestions to the PPG such as being able to choose the order in which your own images are displayed, and they were warmly welcomed.

suggest they not use flash.
Ipads are getting really popular and I don'e use flash on my computer either...

Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.

Just a thought, what do we think of the tag options on EPZ? Do they cover things better than the PU version?
Not that I've ever posted on EPZ, but after a quick look I'd say the entire EPZ gallery setup is about a million times better than PU's. The way it displays modifications of the original image is very good, and I like the sub categories of galleries (people's choice, editor's choice, etc). Just a thought, what do we think of the tag options on EPZ? Do they cover things better than the PU version?
Please ask the IT people to throw away the PU gallery and install the EPZ one
PS I don't think EPZ's tag options are any better than PU's. Unless everyone uses the same keywords to tag photos, or we're talking about a collection of a huge number of tagged photos, then sorting by tag is pretty much useless.

Ken, Please would you remind me how to contact the IT engineers. I've done it once ages ago, but I've forgotten how to do it.
Thanks.

I have flash installed but it's unnecessary bloat for things other than showing Youtube videos

All things are looked at, so don't hesitate to make suggestions.
"Street Photography" has now been added to the filters in the Gallery.
