  View original topic: Please, no more gallery 'For the forum' descriptions

Just a suggestion, for those posting pictures in the gallery for a specific thread, please include a bit of a description with the picture such that those of us not reading that particular thread (or after it's been deleted) the picture can make some sense. Posting up a picture with only the caption 'for the forums' is a waste of disk space without more information.

ok, i'll get off my soap box now.

That is a very good suggestion.

Gallery photos are useless after the first day unless they contain a searchable description. They will be lost among the 150,000 + Gallery photos.

"cool VW", "for the forums", "from show", "check this out" ensure that your photo is unsearchable.

It is especially important to include good descriptions for reference photos: parts comparisons, original colors, seats, interiors, etc.

I fully agree. A good idea is to add the link of the thread where the pic is shown. That would be useful!
