I will also say that I am not "violently opposed" to a Photoshop gallery. I just don't see the need and I think you're going the wrong way about getting one - I'll come back to that in a moment. If anyone is taking any stance "violently", I'd point out that I'm the one writing long explanations of what I think. You're the one getting so angry that you can barely type. Let's keep the temperature down and see if we can actually achieve something, even if we can't end up agreeing with each other. In the interest of reasoned debate, I'll summarise the arguments I've already made, and add to them. I don't think you've made a strong enough case for a PS gallery because:

• Grim's initial post in this thread refers to other 2D apps as "lesser" and calls them a "hindrance". When you're asking for a favour, it's best to be polite. Maybe the people you're asking this favour of might actually like and use those other 2D apps? If so, you've already shot yourselves in the foot. Also, Grim's post refers repeatedly to forums not galleries, which confuses the issue.
• Many of the members here don't seem to use 2D apps anyway. They just post straight 3D renders. Most of the others use it for post-work on 3D renders - just smoothing out the algorithms. Few of us use it as a primary creative tool, so the constituency for the gallery would be very small. That doesn't mean that there shouldn't be a gallery, but it does mean that the pressure to create one won't ever be very strong.
• Following on from the point above, few people have joined this thread and asked for the gallery. Certainly not enough to be considered the equivalent of a parade with banners.
• You and Grim seem to think that other 2D apps asking for their own galleries is part of the solution; I think it's part of the problem. The PTB don't have the resources for a number of new galleries, so they're unlikely to agree to a precedent that might lead to that situation. Even if you're only asking for one gallery, the people who make the decision need to take a longer-term view. Re-read posts 4 and 5 in this thread.
• There are other options available to the PTB which don't involve that kind of precedent, e.g. splitting off digital 2D and traditional materials. And yet, there's no big pressure for them to go even that far.
• One of the mods has already volunteered to add to his own workload by creating a backroom gallery. To institute a full gallery would also involve work by coders, who have long task-lists, and other mods. If I were the PTB, I know which I'd go with.
• A backroom gallery would measure the amount of interest in a PS gallery.

If you can convince me that none of these are problems, you'll have my full support.
