marvairplanes 34 #1 Posted June 27, 2012 A few days before the big Wheel Horse show in Penn. there was a post encouraging everyone who planned to take pictures and then share them with other members... ...to use the GALLERY, in the SHOW ALBUM, where the new site "2012 Wheel Horse Collectors Show" was created just for those photos. Seems as though at least one member (thanks Scott !) beside myself thought it was a good idea. Would have really been neat if all the pics could have been in one location...easy to find and enjoy by Wheel Horse fans far into the future. I've already "lost" most of the individual collections.

KC9KAS 4,744 #2 Posted June 27, 2012 Yes, I remember seeing the post prior to the "Big Show" and was looking forward to seeing all the pictures. I still looked at everyones photos and I did enjoy them, but would have been nice to have them all in one place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmaynard 16,350 #3 Posted June 27, 2012 Sometimes old habits are hard to break. I rarely use or visit the gallery, so I wouldn't even think to put show pictures there. I would post them under Wheel Horse Collectors Club section. That seems to be the more logical place to put things related to the show, including pictures.

Marv that sucks for people who have dail up to have all the pic's in one spot I could tick on it and go to work for nine hours and maybe just maybe they would all be loaded up when I get home Brian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you have 50 in a single topic ALL 50 have to load through dialup instead of 1 and some thumbnails. And if you have 10 topics, you'll spend your whole day there. I have enabled the comment section in the show picture gallery so EACH individual picture can be commented on instead of getting lost in a thread. Same applies for the cell phone users. And the gallery can do a slideshow so you can sit back and view all the pictures. I can't force everyone to use the gallery, but if it were used it would be a whole lot nicer to see the 2012 WHCC show! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nylyon-(Admin) 7,963 #7 Posted June 28, 2012 If you're on dialup, try the mobile skin. Only thumbnails are loading where as in a post the full size is loading. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rooster 192 #9 Posted June 28, 2012 This is why some forums restrict pics in posts to clickable thumbnails. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bob, I'm really surprised to see that you rarely use or visit the gallery. I think it's the easiest to use, best organized, and one of the most impressive features of the "NEW" Red Square. The GALLERY, together with the new CLASSIFIED, are usually the first two clicks I make when logging on . And the feature which allows us to block the posts of individual members is also great.
