A 'one a day' limit would help, but we need those categories.....If a fast new 'puter can't speed things up (and it hasn't for me), then we need to figure out some way to cut down on the number of thumbs a person needs to go through. Period. Terminus said it best way back in post #38. And as for making the categories gallery-wide, I'm all for it---those few, rare times that I have had time on my hands and browsed another gallery than Poser +/or Bryce, I've seen amazing works in media I know almost nothing about....it kills me to think how many thousands of images like that are languishing right now in multiple galleries that I just can't spare the time to peruse.
