Aside from "gimmie a bat, I'm goin after Elle"... Considering all of the basic concepts that sit underneath this, what I'm basically getting is the idea that I'm not alone in this peculiar bebotherment. I/m also getting an idea that maybe the galleries need to be seriously revised -- but will that happen? Definitely something long term for the all powerful programmers to consider (along with that little line of gag code for crazy folks), and it should be comparatively simple to create. Implementing it, however, might be a bit of a challenge. Still, we did sorta survive the changeover to the category system. Ok, so how would people feel if someone suddenly up and dove into what we have now and more or less "cleaned" it up by tossing stuff into various categories based on their particular notions of what fits into different categories? And what if while they were willing to consider moving it back, they didn't always do it within the 10 or 15 seconds we typically allow such, um, efforts? And EnglishBob, you raise an outstanding point. Oddly enough, though, the bulk of the folks who seem to be the most, eh, outside the bounds here, tend to speak english very well -- or at least one could judge so from their written posts. I'm also going to note that there is an enormous chunk of the community at large who do not wander into the forums. They only engage themselves in the galleries (I tend to call folks like that gallery bunnies and folks like me, who do the opposite, forum bunnies -- but I've got a twisted sense of humor). Btcha they'll b somewhat off put by this...
