To be honest, they snapshot gallery never really became what it was intended to be..

We used to have a "members"  gallery before the PHP conversion..It was just a place to share casual photos..Pictures of your self, party  pics..things like that.

Snap shot was also supposed to be like a "little brother" to the photo gallery.. A place for non-photographer to share stuff.. There are some folks who are afraid to post here because of the quality of the work in our gallery !!

What we as staff do see, is a member who posts a very nice photo, then we read their son,daughter or husband took the picture..

Even if they have permission  go ahead and post it...is that really fair to the photographers here?

I really think snapshot needs a name change and to be re-invented..More like a friends and family gallery. I think stuff like that is a good community building tool..
