I submitted a review yesterday and was going to put some new photos on...
but you have to go through and select this, select that, name it etc all before you decide which picture/s you want to upload.
You won't here me praise facebook much but they have roughly the right idea when it comes uploading photos...
I want to click "upload photos", then I want it to give me a click/scroll menu to where I'm going to add it "Cyprus" click, "LIVAS HOTEL" click
then maybe add my own sub category to group them together *typing out "Livas hotel May 2012"* then for it to open up a serach directory type box that will allow me to navigate to my photos, click ALL the ones I want to upload and then hit go... from that I want it to upload the lot and then let me put titles, comments to them on one big page....
rather than the way it is now... which mean I have to open my folder and go and look which photo I want to upload, then click on the upload bit, fill in all the details, titles etc then navigate to it etc... then go back to my folder and look for the next photo... go back to the media section on here, click upload, fill in all the titles etc..... which just makes me give up...
don't want much do I ?
Steve, I've been complaining about the upload process for a while. Quite a few of us that upload photos agree that it's a pain. However, the new guys have asked us not to upload to the media gallery yet as nobody is approving the pictures so they won't be shown. I'm sure that they will improve it for us soon and then we can all get back posting in there. Hope it won't be too long
thanks...
This saga has been discussed in great lengths before on the board, and I'm sure the new guys know all about it and will do something about it when other more important issues have been dealt with, according to the sites priorities.

Call it pants, slow, boring, annoying or irritating and now it has loads of 'bugs' and Chinese spammers in there.
From the vibes I'm getting, in time it's all going to be changed and not as detached from the main site as it is now, but the new guy's priority is getting the 'new look' site on-line and we all have to be patient.
I've been uploading a few videos to keep it 'ticking over', well that's not strictly true, I have a thread running in the Costa Blanca forum which needed either photos or videos to enhance the discussion, and as posting links to YT is not allowed, that is the only reason why I have been uploading video footage into the gallery or bringing my vids over from YT, because my media didn't have to be approved and I would still be able to link back to the site in a post.
There is no point in even trying to upload because there is nobody appointed to approve the media and I think the MG's is dead in its present form.....we will all have to wait and see what the future brings.

Sanji, I know the in's and outs, I was just raising the point on the off chance it had been overlooked with all the turmoil, I'm happy to wait, and have previously posted videos and pictures in there, but hoping for it to be enhanced with the rest of the sites changes
The Media Gallery functionality is going to be bought into the main site along with the reviews. We will preserve the MG database so nothing will be lost, however its one of those thinggs thats on the list 'to do'. So it may take us a while to sort, but it will be done.
Chris, get the coffee pot on
