I am hoping that when someone clicks on the new images that they scroll down to see them all and then click as many as they like but I do agree, with so many images coming in, I would want the a nice decent shot to represent the plant in the genus listing. Do you ever scroll through just one genus listing to see what it looks like? This is what Zuzu and I are talking about, the main thumbnail.

On Davesgarden, in the early days of the database, digital cameras weren't the greatest and some of the first images for some entries were poor quality but at least they had an image. As more people started adding more photos, it was sad to see the original thumbnail representing the plant in the genus listing. A few times I requested admin to change the order and put in one of the nicer photos so it would show up in a thumbnail.
I enjoy giving thumb ups for images and posts within a thread and it's nice to see them from someone else. The system works as it should, just a little tweaking for the database purposes is all that's needed. Not a big deal.
