Pekka et al,
Would it be at all possible...to have a feature where, for example, say you have a gallery of photos (say, these 'main' photos are the best shot, or a certain shot of a subject).
When you click on any one of these photos, you get the normal photo page displaying a larger version, but *also* displayed below the main shot are shots of the subject from the same time, with degrees of variation.
An example of this right now is found here (http://www.the-digital-picture.com/Reviews/Sample-Pictures.aspx?Equipment=107&desc=Canon-EF-100mm-f/2.8-USM-Macro-Lens-Sample-Pictures) (from www.the-digital-picture.com (http://www.the-digital-picture.com) ). Notice that if you click on some of the photos, there are different examples as well, but 'contained' within that shot's page.
This would allow people to post degrees of variation of the same shot, but not flood the gallery 'main' page with the same shots, preserving diversity and impact of a gallery, but still providing more choices when a photo is viewed.
This would require some type of ability to 'link' photos into a 'sub-image-directory' for their individual image assignments. Another interesting idea would be to have the 'main' image in the gallery rotate after a certain time (obviously user-selectable on whether on or off).
Is this at all possible? I know you're already swamped...
