I've wanted to ask about this for awhile now, so since you're on a roll... Big Grin

I often need to add an image of or a comment to the DB of a plant of mine, but have since forgotten something important in the name. Sometimes the search is pretty brief, but other times I have to bring up pages and pages of images to find what I'm looking for. Would it be feasible to have a "by keyword(s)" search of our own DB images? I've tried searching on the main page with keywords of my user ID and a particular plant and usually don't get a match. Or, is there an easier way that I'm just not seeing?

That's really not feasible. Searching and list browsing don't mix very well.

I do think it may be something that will be incorporated into the upcoming inventory list system, though.

chelle...are you searching the DB or from your profile where it says how many images you have contributed? I check my profile, but then I haven't added a bazillion pics. Also I've been keeping a list on a pad by the 'puter of what I've added...something else to collect dust Rolling my eyes. Whistling
