AI Gallery. (poll)

in Feedback edited January 2014
I would like to suggest an AppleInsider member gallery (just like the one Spymac has). I'm not quite sure if your servers can handle it, but that would be great.

    I find Spymac to be very annoying sometimes... which is why I don't use their forums. The gallery is a lot of fun, though. We could even have pixelmania-type contests! <---which is always really fun.

    Over at MacSwitchersGuide.com they're still kind of setting up and finalizing parts of their forums, but I know they were writing something kind of like that. Mostly it was to upload screen shots and set ups for your account to participate threads like that.

    Nothing prevent you to make a gallery of Apple insider members like the one of Leonis and Zo. Their gallery Apple insider community site is directly linked via AI and vice-versa.



    AI is on a shared server, i do not think (but the admins could say otherwise) that we can support this extra weight.

    Sorry, guys. Not gonna happen any time soon.



    1. We can't afford the bandwidth that would gobble up unless some benefactor started throwing wads of cash at us..

    2. We still do not have enough access to the server to allow us to add such a feature.

    3. I am not a big fan of the idea anyway.

    I think that threads similar to the "Pscates iBook Widescreen Mockup" thread are just as good, if not better, than having a gallery. With a designated gallery comes a barrage of "Look at me! I can Photoshop!" pictures, and that is not an ideal enviroment for one to show their GOOD mockups and ideas. If a thread would benifit from a photo or two being added, sure, but we can live without a gallery.
