i agree with all your points, auntietk. i especially miss the mouse-over stats information box.

Furthermore, IMHO,  the only positive change to the Galleries is the fix for the visitors' comment box.  The other changes really add little to nothing/improve nothing...

 

Quote - I guess I can only think about one thing at a time!  LOL!  Now that you've solved the writer's gallery problem (and a thousand thanks for that!) ...  next up ...

I miss the hover feature.  The eye doesn't do it for me.  Aside from an extra click, it doesn't give me the information I want.  I love knowing how long ago I posted an image.  "Posted 23 hours 15 minutes ago" is so much more helpful than having a time and date posted.  Is that Tennessee time?  West Coast time?  What day is it?  How long ago did I post?  I'm retired.  I shouldn't have to think so much.  :P

Okay ... two this time ...

The white box that contains details, statistics and EXIF data (for photographs) is so big I feel like I should hire a dance band and fill the space!  Maybe a football game would fit in there.  A small country?  Holy cats!  That's a lot of room for no reason.

Oh yeah, one more thing ... :P

I used to click on "my gallery" and it would take me to my gallery page.  24 images, mine, all mine, with my stats at the bottom.  Now it takes me to the page where my most current image is at the top, next three below that, most recent views, most recent favs ... whatever.  Is there a way to get to my gallery page without going to that summary page and clicking where it says "you have posted blah-de-blah number of images?"  I keep trying different things, but can't figure it out.

Bugs?  Design commentary?  Silly question?  I don't know ... do what you can for me, okay?  :)

Thanks, Tina!
