...Just pass me that baseball bat, would you? ;-) I agree with most of the points raised here. I do think that people tend to stick with a category once they've found it. Someone who usually posts in fantasy will often keep posting in fantasy even when they're clearly producing pinups. However, we're talking about subjective viewpoints, and two people may have wildly differing opinions on where one picture should go. Of course, this may be because it fits in several categories... I do not think removing categories, at this stage, would be a good move. It would mean displacing some pictures and probably annoying a fair amount of people. It would also be a considerable amount of work. Whilst I'm not against work, I don't see the benefit outweighing the cost on this one. I would favour being able to select from the genre rather than software>genre. I also like the suggestion of multiple categories being pickable. I suspect, from my limited knowledge of programming, that the first suggestion might be relatively easy to implement, the second one quite a bit harder. Elle, why don't you start a thread up in the Community Centre and get views from people posting in the other galleries?
