In the oval gallery there are now 4 pages of fuel tap cleaning, posted by "king of aces". Thats just nuts. As much as I enjoy VWs I could not care less to see these pictures. What is the appeal here? Boring as hell.

They're for his build thread. He had them hosted externally and was encouraged by members, and Everett, to post his photos to the samba gallery. You can just click on past them if you don't want to see them in the gallery.

My last question is about TheSamba Gallery. Imgur is a terrible, awful image hosting service, and I'd like to just shove all of my pictures here. Is it alright if I just mass upload all of my pictures from my galleries to the image servers, or will someone get mad? I didn't see any sort of policies on the upload page, but I just want to double check before I add a few digits to the number of pages under the Oval category.


Yes, it is ok and preferred for you to post them all here.
Feel free to do that and then edit your post to link to images on this site.

The gallery post seemed a bit excessive with the amount of nearly identical and blurry photos, but I am always glad to see thorough build threads without dead external links. Thesamba rocks, so glad Ev Has plenty of gallery space on site and hopefully this encourages people to create build threads where the links work for posterity. I really wish the vw38 discovery and build thread had more the links that still worked...that's a lot of history that is now more difficult to access

Or just do a search on what you want to see, i like the way king of aces has his pics titled. Easy to find in a search.

Lol Laughing Wait till you see his "carb removal" series. But seriously, many people must agree with you. As of 10:57pm/pst, 99% of his photos show ZERO views Laughing

Yes, he is reposting all of them here in a massive bulk so he can update his build thread and the photos won't go dead later.

Some of them do seem really similar but it's a temporary huge mass of posting while he gets them loaded here.
