I thought I'd post a question here I have and one Brian (MtBrian) posted in Toy Camera forum regarding the gallery posts/photos.

My question: I uploaded a few images in both My gallery and Portraits and another in My gallery and Animals, etc. When there were comments made on one of my images in the Portrait gallery, it was also posted in the comment section of the same image in My gallery. However, comments on the other images were only posted in the specific gallery. The only thing I can think of is that the person who commented, did so on both?

Here Brian's question copy/pasted from the Toy Camera Gallery.
John,
I posted my first image in the new galleries.
If I understood the process right, I posted it first in the Critique gallery and also the Landscape and Toy Camera one all at the same time right?
There were three catagories you could select from right? The main one, and then two sub catagories?
So basically, you could put one photo into three catagories with one posting? Right?
Brian

Thanks :D
Liz

Liz-
The comments thing is a little strange, We only discovered it after the gallery was live. Even though you only upload one photo, the gallery treats your image as separate images if you include it in more than one category. So comments in one category won't appear in any other category. That doesn't seem like the best way to do it and it's not how I wanted it. But it's very hard to change it so it will remain like that for a while.

Brian-
Yes, you can include your photos in more than one category - up to three. As I said in reponse to Liz's question, any comments will only appear in one gallery, though. So if someone responds in the Critique gallery, those comments won't show up in the Macro gallery, if you included your photo there, too. But I did figure that most photos fit more than one category so we made it possible for you to choose three per image.
