Top of site fixed for you PC users

Sorry. Did not realize I broke the header a bit when I added the logo. Only applied to Internet Explorer by the looks of it. Some of the header elements were not flowing to the left margin as they should have. Fixed now.
Enjoy,

SIAlumni Version 2

I hope you enjoy the new look and feel. Here is a list of the changes:

1) Navigation is more direct. No more weeding through pages to get to the category you want. And we now have categories in our Gallery, including the return of Assignments.

2) Added a Control Panel. If you need to do stuff like manage your profile or edit your pages, the Control Panel can help. Look... [More]

Last Call For Gallery Category Inputs

After some discussion from our regulars this is the list we have (thanks Donn , I plagiarized your last comment) :

- Commercial = for pay, past or future for those not yet sold, whether it's product stuff, architecture, etc.
- Editorial = Events, photojournalism, etc. Think Iraq photos, parades, pow wows, city streets, etc.
- Fine Art = catch-all, macros, Garnet, etc.[More]

Pagination Added To Home Page

I have added pagination to the New Pages section in an effort to keep more pages in play while not letting the home page get too long. If you have changed the settings for rows per age in your user profile to anything greater than 20 it will not display. The default should be 10, so most of you should see it as intended. If you are not sure, what you should see as a default is a link to... [More]

Any Ideas On Gallery Folders/Categories

Just a reminder. I could use some help coming up with folders for our Gallery. I can think of (not in any particular order):

-Nature
-Events
-Portrait
-Abstract
-Architectural
-Landscapes
-Fashion
-Food
-Travel

As you can see this can be very difficult to get "right" as there are many options. I think we will need to keep... [More]

What subfolders (categories) do you want in the Gallery

Based on our recent conversation it looks like we will be getting subfolders in the Gallery. I think we will still reserve the Gallery for personal best shots and you can use your personal folders to post working images for feedback. What I need to know from ya'll is what subfolders you want to see in the Gallery??? I think we should keep them broad and use tags to further organize them... [More]

Gallery Policy

I am very excited that the Gallery is starting to fill up with excellent images. I wonder, however, if we might reserve the Gallery for our portfolio shots? A Best Of SIAlumni Members? The reason I bring this up is there is no age limit to the images in the Gallery - they will always be present unless the owner deletes them. So, as you can imagine, after a few years we will have a very... [More]

Update to our site template (v1.2)

I have just completed some tweaks for our site; here is the list for v1.2:

-Turned off right click (for most modern browsers) on page and file images
-New font (Verdana) for easier reading (maybe)
-All recent/random thumbs now take you to page view
-File view now supports an image up to 750px wide
-Links are now underlined on hover vice bold
-Tag input... [More]

Posting Comments to Images

When I click on an image from the Random Images section, I don't see a link to post a comment. This happens elsewhere as well. Sometimes I can get to the "new comment" link, sometimes I can't.
