Default Quick Access to Members Galleries

I've ask this question before but I'll ask it again in hopes that some action might be taken on it.

Isn't it possible to include "View (Name)'s Gallery Photos" in the drop-down box when you click on a poster's name? That would make it so simple. As an added bonus you could have the er's gallery photos appear in a seperate window so you can quickly revert back to the comments section. As it's already done for the Public Profile, Email and Homepage surely it can be done for the Gallery area.

Thanks!

P.S. You could also do away with the automatic Icon insertions, i.e., member's, cowboy, etc. I know you can turn them off but it would be better to have to turn them on.

I like Lynn's suggestion. Woodcarving is a very visual field, and the ability to link the images to the poster's comments would be very helpful. I am beginning to find my way around the site, but some functions are still awkward for me.

We're still working on it. Like I said in this thread:
Linking to Carver Galleries

The message board and gallery software are made by different companies, and while they play nicely together, there are some conflicts...

We briefly tried to make that change, but the aftermarket HTML code we applied screwed up a couple things, including the preview photos you see in each section (Caricature, relief, animal, etc.). So for now, we opted to keep the preview photos in each section while we research another solution.

I have been in contact with some of the software companies that deal with blind low vision etc. They are about to release a test version that will hopefully describe a photo or graphic when you hold the curser on it or a scroll feature. I know this is not what Lynn was talking about but would help me out a great deal. I have my name on the list for a trial version. The only problem is like all visual aids they charge a kings ransom for it if it works they are looking at a price tag of 1500;00 for the software.
