Yes, I have all the images people have sent in and I fully intend on getting them online and into the gallery, it’s just this backlog of administrivia that I’m wading through at the moment and the fact that I’m very, very busy with work at the moment.
Please wait and I’ll get all of your images up for all to see.
Thanks!

I’m evaluating moving the pinhole gallery to use Joomla. We are, after all a community of people who share an interest in a subject and Joomla might just the the right platform for enabling people to edit their own galleries.
Right now there are many, many thousanda of images in the gallery and it’d be nice of people could manage their own images.
So, this is the goal. It’s still early in the process of testing and evaluation. I’ll let you know how it goes.

Hi, You probably didn’t notice or I hope you didn’t but we’re serving the pinhole gallery from Mosso, the RackSpace cloud now. I’m making an effort to wean myself off owning server hardware.
Why? A valid question. For one, costs. It’s expensive to purchase, host and maintain hardware. Add to those costs the software and administrative time and you wind up with a cost you really never thought would get that large.
Another reason is that the cloud provides services I can’t build, like clustering, high availability etc. On top of which it’s just plain interestng technology…
So, here we are. Cloud bound. I hope you find the site a little faster and more enjoyable.

Okay, I hate spam. I don’t like the meatish substance that is Spam and I don’t like the email that we call spam… I get far, far too much of it and finally I snapped…
FORTUNATELY there is Mail Launder http://www.maillaunder.com/
It’s not expensive! It’s easy to set up! And BEST OF ALL!!! IT WORKS!!!
So, do yourself a HUGE favor and look into Mail Launder

Seems I’ve got a bit of a backlog in the gallery and there are quite a number of new artists and images to add. I have to apologize if it seems to take a long time, but I do look at each and every image that goes into the gallery.
I keep looking for a way to have a membership system that would allow each artist to self-manage their own images but I’ve not found anything that does the trick and I’m rather pressed for time so writing one as a plug in from scratch (for wordpress) is not on the talbe right now.
If someone finds a nice, membership driven plug in for WP or even another web app that might support this then please let me know.
