Gallery

how often do you use it?

15-03-2005, 05:17 PM

once a month or whenever prompted? its a good feature. If there was a way that people could upload their own gallery image with a description it could be linked to that person? doing away with the maintenance and having to scroll through pages to get to say joe bloggs s4 etc. its just a thought, enough with the applause now folks.

I voted once a month - but it's more like once every couple of months TBH.

Looked at it a couple of times but can never tell whether new pics have been added. Personally, I don't think the detail cropped images at the side encourage you to work your way through them all as you can't really see what you're going to get. Besides, it doesn't work on the Safari Apple browser so I have to open up Explorer if I want to view it - shame on you Terry - Mac user 'n' all.

Just my two pennies worth of thoughts for the evening

best regards

I look at the gallery about once or twice a month, but would look more often if I knew when it was updated.

I look about once a week, just for interest, to see whats new, look for inspiration or just on my daily change of wallpaper / screensaver.

the small crops are a nice little idea -stand up please frustrated designer?!- but dont really work in this situation? A huge -boring- page full of small jpgs would be better? the pages dont get that heavy, I hear that some of these porno sites are full of thumbnails but they work (allegedly etc) plus some peoples bikes are pretty standard and not terribly exciting to look at so it would be good to be able to go straight to something a bit juicier? 3 sections? standard ish monsters, featured monsters and works in progress like grunts beast?

I look once a month I suppose, try to get ideas/inspiration for my own bike by viewing others in the gallery.

But like the others have said, it would be really handy if we knew when it was updated and got rid of those little cropped pics on the righthandside or modified them slightly.

Can't you set the gallery up by bike order or something ie. 600's, 620's, 750's etc and then maybe have the updated/newest pics flagged up somehow

Other than that I love looking at everyone's bikes and reading what they've done to them

to look my own "standard" bike - ha ha!

I like to see other peoples bikes - I'm a woman so therefore I am nosy!

id like higher resolution pictures (as per natty boy) but i understand thers a limit to file sizes, doh.

Every so often but it is a bit of a job.
It doesnt work right with Mac. To look at it I have to start IE and then back to the UKMOC, then to the gallery.... I still have dial up service so it just depends on how much patience I have for computer BS that day. Almost the same for loading the reply page in the forum. all those spinning and blinking smile icons seem to make the page load sooooooo slow. Or is it the flash animation ads at the top?
