I find the anonymous pics a bit bizarre too. How about using their "from"
name when they post to the group. That way they can maintain as much
anonymity as they want. As for the N-numbers, anyone can look it up so nix
those pix.

Page loads fine for me but I'm on a cable modem but I can see it becoming a
problem eventually. You may want to have a listing by state with their name
and n-number and maybe one picture and make it a link to anther page. Sort
of like this:
NY
John Doe N123AB Pic
Steve and Amy Smith N54321 Pic

Also, I vote no on the email addresses. If they want it they can refer to
the newsgroup posts.

Our new rec.aviation "Rogue's Gallery" of pictures.

Since our new website is obviously becoming more popular with you folks
every day, I need some advice on how to proceed:

1. Should I include "anonymous" posters? I have received pictures from
several folks who do not wish to use their real names, have their "N"
numbers visible, or have their home bases publicized. To me this seems
bizarre, since the whole point of "showing off" your plane is to "show
off" -- and how can you do *that* anonymously? Still, I've posted a
couple of them, but I'm not sure of how to proceed. It's YOUR page --

what
do you folks think?

2. The page is slowing waaaay down. I really like the format of the page,
but as it grows it's getting really slow to open. How's it running for

you?
Too slow? Okay, yet? How slow is too slow?

3. Should I include email addresses? I've not included them, thus far --
but I thought it might be valuable to have an email "directory" of
participants?

Thanks for your help!

this cries for a database.

to manage it.
