I think Vanagon campers should have their own picture gallery category on thesamba.
Anyone else agree? Very Happy

Unfortunately there is no way to realistically separate the camper pics from the 145,000+ pics that are already in the Vanagon/Eurovan gallery.

For me I'd keep it as is. Very Happy

It might be tough to differentiate between what constitutes a camper vs a passenger van. Many Vanagons end up being modified to the point where they have certain camper amenities so who's to say where they'd belong.

It's a good idea, but I think most Vanagon owners are interested in all things Vanagon, so probably best to keep it all together.

I just thought going forward it could be separated more like the way the baywindow galleries are.

Those galleries were all created about the same time it appears. So it works for them.

I'd hate to have to look in two Vanagon galleries for something. YMMV.

I'd settle for kicking the minivans out of the vanagon photo gallery.

the multiple bay galleries makes it hard sometimes to find somethings..

The Bus gallery is broken down into many different subcategories which makes it a pain to use so I can't see repeating this mistake with the Vanagon. Would be helpful to the Eurovan people though if Eurovans were separated out from Vanagon, as there is little similar between the two.

It was a hellish task pulling out the Eurovan threads from the Vanagon threads when they were separated awhile back.

I vote a resounding NO!!!!

Thank God we got rid of the T3s

There should be a very special forum for those with both,though.
