Unfortunately that feature wasn't in the upgrade. We''l have to start putting the details in a comment after we've uploaded the image.

Thats a shame. Yes it would be good if people could add a comment on what camera equipment they use.

I've been including photography info in the main description box.

I'll ask Stu if he can change the wording on the upload page to say 'Enter a description of the photo as well as photographic equipment or techniques used'.

Hopefully that will prompt users to include this info.

Thanks Matt, that would be good

We can add a box like it used to be in the old gallery, but we couldn't import any of the info. It'll take a while to setup because I've got to add it to each and every gallery, but I'll start adding them and see how we get on.

OK, it's done It didn't take a fraction of the time I thought it would, but that might have something to do with our new server that we're putting in at the moment that's 4x quicker than the last one

I've added a box to each category in the gallery, not the archive, and although it looks small, it can take quite a bit of info...although it'll all sit on one line, rather than in several lines like the old gallery.

Is there a different procedure for moving images or reporting wrong images in the achive gallery????

I have had some unknown fungi named and have asked for them to be moved to the proper fungi gallery (twice I think) but they are still in the achive

I also reported some of my achive images are wrong after the gallery changeover and they are still wrong.

I understand that things cannot be done straightaway but it has been a good couple of weeks or possibly longer since I reported the images so I wondered if I needed to do something else....

Yes, but it doesn't work correctly. For some unknown reason the reported images aren't showing as such..which makes re-naming them extremely awkward. We desperately require some new moderators with Psychic powers!

If you'd like to send me a PM with all the correct info, with the correct links to the images, I'll manually alter and move them.

I see, so when you report the image is doesn't actually report it to a mod

I think you are right you need Uri Gellar to help you

I'll pm you the details once I've checked exactly what I've reported and thanks for your help Graham most appreciated
