Thanks Gary.

I see you uploaded a lots of pics. If you have too many just zip em up and email to me so I can add them through FTP. Its much faster.

Or make an australia folder in FTP and give you access? :D

I was reading crzyguy's comments in gallery...

We should organize the gallery down to the unit level instead of branch level.

Right now its something like this:

Army
Navy
Airforce (so pics related to a countries airforce endup in this album, mixing all jets up.

What I am thinking of doing is this

Category (army) Albums (albums with unit names one for each so if a country has 4 different variants of tanks, 4 different albums. It maybe much easier for you guys to find and locate certain units.

An example of this would be if you go in USA section, click on airforce. Each jet has its own album. ;)

Yeah. That would be a wise thing to do. I have that same style of keeping pics in my computer. :smokingc:

Thats nice.

I also wanted to share something which is already going through some development:

http://www.defencetalk.com/forums/site.php

Regarding an idea floated by saraab to organize the gallery by unit/military hardware rather than country. So this plan is still in its infancy. Soon after re-organization of the gallery its self more work will be done on this particular idea.

Re: Gallery Picture Updates

The re-organization of the gallery is coming along just fine, a bit slow but steady:

Example:

http://www.defencetalk.com/pictures/index.php?cat=37

Please click on the "airforce" section and see the layout. After you are in click on the "fighters" section and you will notice that each unit has its own album. This will allow us to link all equipment that will be listed here:

www.defencetalk.com/forums/site.php

More user friendly, you will be able to search by equipment/type/country/military branch, etc.

Enjoy!!!

Re: Gallery Picture Updates

Its a good beginning but I'd say there is still a lot of work that needs to be done on this link as far as the "capital" letters at the beginning of the aircrafts' names and other places are concerned (the small letters at the beginning make it look a bit unsophisticated); and some other stuff. Other than that, GREAT WORK Webs! :smokingc:

Re: Gallery Picture Updates

Cant you people see sooo many aircraft names and other things needing CAPITAL letters at the beginning? Small letters make it look childish man! Plus, its kind of a jumbled up thing. I'd rather prefer separate catagories and some space between different country equipment and stuff. How abt that? :smokingc:

Re: Gallery Picture Updates

I'm talking about this link:

http://www.defencetalk.com/pictures/photoindex.php

Even though if its a list of all the pictures as you have stated above, it kinda looks like everything just crammed up into everything else. I mean I found it confusing a bit and like a lot of it needs Capital letters. :p No hard feelings though. The military gallery here is one of the best around! :smokingc:

Re: Gallery Picture Updates

Yeah.

We don't have any control over that. The names, etc. are coming straight from the sql database and same names are found individually when you click their categories/albums. That page is basically for search engines, optionally you can also use to finds pics but its too long so thats why it isn't related to the other project being worked out. ;)
