For my part, I strongly oppose that the PUG should be a host for personal galleries. There are already loads of places offering that service for free, and I don't see why the PDML should take on the effort of providing yet another.
I think I agree with you, Jostein. PUG is unique and I think that the move to come shouldn't spoil this. However, I think of one improvement, that we could implement that could probably bridge Jostein's opinion and those who want to have personal galleries at PUG.
As I remember, old PUG had this feature of looking up a photog by name. Then it would display a table where one would have to click through all the links of given photog to see his or her pics. What if instead, a generated page would be created each time one clicks on, let us say, Jostein's name <g>... This page would contain thumbs of all the pics that were submitted by Jostein. Then, at least, if one were looking for a particular pic for particular person they wouldn't have to do some exhaustive search...
Such page could be called "Jostein's personal gallery at PUG".
I wouldn't go any further however.
Just my cents.
Since I cannot do any such trick myself, I will have to go silent here <g>...
