Bio, unfortunately the erotica is minimal; most of that genre that get's posted is general T&A, and it all gets lumped under the same label. It's a shame, but it happens; I guess it's because a lot of the time most people can't get a stranger to be 'in a state of undress' for them; therefore a lot of shots of nude people are partners/girlfriends whatever, who don't really take a 'photo shoot' seriously - therefore you end up with the usual tacky 'readers wives' posts........ the quality suffers, but satisfies the 'general' clickers interest. ie, they get to see a strangers body where they wouldn't normally. Y'know, if EVERYONE who posted in the gallery read just 10% of the forum, it would be a better place. HMMMMM Erm, 'Chelle, Starry, would there be any way a mod could put a message in a gallery occaisionally, you know, sorta 'welcome newbies' thing offering words of encouragement? We could tell then how successful it had been by the number of hits. Not just the photo gallery, but all of the galleries could benefit from this sort of thing. Sorta like a quick noticeboard for gallery posters in general to be given messages by mods......... Just an idea. Mike (",)
