I was thinking that it may be a good idea to have an individual gallery for each member. I know there is one big snail gallery, but I thought it would be nice if each of us have our own linked in with our profile. Just say for instance someone wants to see what snails I have they can just look on “sonicsnail's gallery“. Of course this may not be of use to people who have their own sites which people can visit and see their snail pics. Further to this, there could be a section for someone's favourite snail pics. Also when someone puts pics on the normal gallery after a while they are forgotten about and yet more pics are added. It would be nice if those pictures could stay in one place......That is where an individual snail gallery would be useful. It was just a thought....what ya think?

It's all in hand, I've been writing loads of code for the backbone, aka. a taxonomical database. It's coming on but you'll have to be a little patient because it takes 1000s and 1000s of lines of code to do something like this, to set it up so people can create the content. Also on the horizon is a directory like the dmoz but just for snails! I've nearly done that.

Great stuff Paul keep up the good work ;D
They have that on the fish site I go on. Is very handy to look up whoevers fish you want to without having to go through all the pics lol.
Am sure it'll be a great hit on here.

So I take it by this people can search by variety of snail? Or is it just by member? |

Oh I never knew that this idea has been mentioned. So Paul, does this mean that you are basically already working on that idea? (That idea being the one I said.)

So Paul, does this mean that you are basically already working on that idea? (That idea being the one I said.) In a word, yes! I've started a comprehensive taxonomical database so you will be able to search by species as well as member. |
