Gallery is very good for photo sharing, I think they also handle video these days. Pop a wordpress in front of it, job done. -jim

2010/1/7 steve st...@greengecko.co.nz I've had a personal request from a client who wants to set up a website for the family - just to let them share photos, etc privately... If that's all they want to do, I'd suggest a flickr account. You can set accessibility as tight as you want. http://www.flickr.com -- Sincerely etc. Christopher Sawtell

Lack of list leadership in knocking the trolls off the list and telling the rest to shut up instead of replying, caused a drain of qualified list members, not helped by a lack of new ones replacing the ones who moved away because they eg finished uni. Both those have killed many lists. A list is also a dynamic community which regulates itself by a number of factors, and it comes and goes. Number of posts has only a weak link with quality of content. Fewer posts have nothing to do with Linux growing up or some such thing. The numbersd may be interesting and/or amusing, but don't really say much about the quality of activity. Volker Funny thing is, the Ubuntu user technical support, not for general discussions mailing list is having this exact same discussion, particulary about a couple of disruptive members. Looks like they might be adding moderators to that list soon. I remember when I first joined that list, high volume as its always been, it was interesting to browse it. Lately its been bizarre to say the least. Almost like a freak show! I know if I have any issues now, Google is always first point of call. I still enjoy casually browsing mailing lists though. cheers Daryn == The PalmHeads: http://planetnz.com/palmheads
