I've decided after much contemplation not to implement a gallery.

My original gallery had hundreds of pictures in it, yet I realized while working on the new gallery that I generally use the photos to supplement my blogging more than to display the photographs themselves.  I realized also that I was maintaining an even bigger collection of images used for supporting the site (all of the joke pictures, all of the product or people photos, all of the pet pornography, and so on).  I already had an easy way of managing those pictures without putting them in the gallery, so why not drop the gallery altogether and simply use the blog for that function.  So that's what I'm going to do.

That means I'll be posting more entries with pictures instead of updating the gallery and posting a quick snippet about it.  Since there won't be an organized gallery, I'll categorize the posts so that you can easily find all of certain types of photos.

Because of this change, I'll now go through and update all of the old posts that still have gallery links in them.  I'll remove the links and will update the posts as I move all of the pictures into new locations.  As I move all of the old gallery pictures into the larger image collection I will post new entries to display the old pictures (those not already displayed in other entries).  I think that means there will be an influx of photo posts while I get caught up.

For anyone who was waiting for the gallery to come back, sorry about that.  This new method just seems like a better idea.
