You guys know you can turn notifications off for favourites, right? Just hit the relevant link on your "my favourites" page. You now have control over when to visit someone's gallery. That's why you'll notice me commenting about once a week... I sit and go through my faves and just look at everyone's most recent picture(s) and comment as I feel inspired to do (which is on about 75% of the images.)

Anyway. GothicAngel and Ladona, I'll remove you guys when I do an update. I'm not gonna do one now cos I have some store testing to do before I hit the sack, and I'm kinf od tired already. I just got back from watching PotC3. Arrrrr, mateys!

Anyway... Let's just review a few ideas and suggestions. I'd like to really blueksy things so don't hold back. Here's what we've got so far:

• Current gallery method (i.e. adding everyone to faves and commenting from your faves list)
• Just commenting based on the list of members in the opening post
• Using a forum-based discussion method (is currently being used by some of the group in the Art Theory forum)
• Having a new section of the gallery
• Having a new genre in the gallery
• Ability to select multiple genres at upload
• Some kind of community-group or buddy-system (similar to group systems on networking sites such as myspace or livejournal)
• Using keywords to search for images where critique is appreciated
• Having a "critique filter" at upload
• The ability to have multiple comments and replies to comments under gallery images
• Restricting the group to a certain size (suggestions on size?)

OK keep 'em coming folks.... The more suggestions and discussion, the better we can make any changes we need to keep the torch burning, so to speak :-)
