thighslapper Posted August 22, 2011 Share #1 Posted August 22, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) No idea where to post this plea........ I really like looking at the photo forum submissions ...... but there are frankly too many to open every thread and take a peek.... As a result I tend to either look at those with interesting titles... or those that have a lot of viewings. As a result I am sure I am missing some great pics...... Is there any way to provide something like a contact sheet per page with thumbnails so you can access the threads direct from that ..... or a thumbnail by the post ???? Just a thought ..... I have no idea if it a practical suggestion or something that has been contemplated before but implementation is difficult/impossible.... cheers, steve Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pico Posted August 23, 2011 Share #2 Posted August 23, 2011 Is there any way to provide something like a contact sheet per page with thumbnails so you can access the threads direct from that ..... or a thumbnail by the post ???? You mean something like the Gallery tab but with larger pictures and no written content? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted August 23, 2011 Share #3 Posted August 23, 2011 I think Steve is asking for thumbnails of images inside threads. AFAIK, this forum software doesn't permit that. What would happen if there were multiple images within a particular thread? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would happen if there were multiple images within a particular thread? Good idea. Something in a series, for example, with roll-over zoom.

andybarton Posted August 23, 2011 Share #5 Posted August 23, 2011 So how is that to be displayed in a normal Forum section? (An image has been removed since I posted this response) This would have to be done automatically by the Forum software, of course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pico Posted August 23, 2011 Share #6 Posted August 23, 2011 So how is that to be displayed in a normal Forum section? (An image has been removed since I posted this response) That was an oops on my part. It should not have been posted so I took it out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stunsworth Posted August 24, 2011 Share #7 Posted August 24, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) What would happen if there were multiple images within a particular thread? It would show the first one? Personally I would like to see a thumbnail against each thread when you go into an individual section of the photo forum, but I realise the software may not provide that functionality.

Keith (M) Posted August 25, 2011 Share #8 Posted August 25, 2011 Are there actually any photography forums that provide the feature requested by the OP? I am an active member of three other photo-forums and an occasional user of a couple of others but am not aware of having seen the feature/facility.
