What is the purpose of arriving at the gallery to a "What's New" page,  and having to click "View Recent", and seeing all the same images you just saw all over again?

Why not just have us arrive at the "View Recent" like it used to be and we can see not only what's been uploaded recently (new), and carry on page by page to see all of the rest?

Seems redundant to me. 

"It is good to see ourselves as others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to say." - Ghandi
