That was the genius of Olaf's set-up. One followed the format rules for the
submission email, and a script installed it
in the event gallery. Almost no admin overhead.

I think that should do it.

Hey, I signed up last time to the ZX user's gallery. Nothing much ever came of
that.
I hope this one goes well. I really dislike the social media for image posting.

Yes, that's nice!

I'm waiting until things settle down to decide whether to even try it out.
Don't get me wrong, I think it's a good
thing. I'm just not sure how many places I want to post images, other than for
special events.
I'm not attracted by the look, nor by the annoying admin interface, if it is
like Gallery before. Waaaaay too many
clicks. Once I have the images ready, I can have a new gallery up in Singapore
in seconds. Not as quick for images alone
in a WP blog, but still pretty fast. I do spend a bit of time putting in the
words.
In another post, AG says ' the gallery system will allow you to view "new"
images.'
Now that I do like! Well, maybe. I recall finding some images I quite like in
members galleries that I either missed or
weren't posted here.
