WHy is the Gallery so complicated?

The damn thing is impossible to search thru. Or is it just me?

It was designed with pornagraphic material in mind.

Give the mods some time--they're slowy making it family friendly and searchable.
Lots of neat stuff in those galaries.

'Nana knows I love the .org gallery and really appreciate the work he does to make it all happen, but I have to agree that it is difficult to find stuff in, basically due to the ENORMOUS amount of material in it.

I basically live in the Prince pictures in the gallery and it takes awhile to find a particular picture. I don't know if I'm missing something obvious that would make it easy or what, so that's not a complaint by any means.

One thing I have thought would make it nice is if the Prince" pictures were broken down by "era," but with the 1,000-2,000 pictures in there I can understand if that is never going to happen.

hug To 'Nana again because I love the work he's already done and can't say it enough.
I'm firmly planted in denial

It doesn't seem like it is, but for me, it may be because of the great volume of material.

well I think the gallery is amazing. it contains so many pictures
that I've never seen anywhere else *ever*

and they're sorted well enough. I never have too much trouble
locating certain pictures.

you can't expect to find a picture within 2 minutes when there is
such a large amount of material to filter through.

no manner of indexing could make it thát much easier.
and true love lives on lollipops and crisps

Agreed NBJ nod Lemme first say the gallery is a fantastic feature & I really appreciate the work Nana's put into it!! woot!

But when I go to look for a certain pic of P that I know is from a certain era, I usually have to resort to the entire "People: Prince" gallery to find it, which makes me not even try sometimes sad

Some pics are cross referenced under the particular concert era they belong to but there's definitely stuff that's missing from sub categories (the album gallery is missing a few, the Prince: Screencaps gallery has nothing from PR). It could just use more cross referencing so the gallery search is more useful.

The gallery is brilliant, I've never once checked it and *not* found what I was looking for.

The search function leaves something to be desired, but it only takes a minute or two extra to browse the results/ relevant category.
