The 'Open Gallery' component of the PUG seems to have declined since about 2006. I had assumed that this was because of the increased popularity of PESO/PAWs and that there were very few "open gallery" submissions. There's no real reason why they couldn't be re-instituted if members want that feature. I think JAlbum could be set up to do it using sub-folders as part of the gallery compilation process but, even if not, it wouldn't be difficult to separate the themed and non-themed sections by editing the index file manually. So, any interest in including 'Open Galleries'? Feedback would be appreciated....
