This feature has worked for me in the past but now ignores whole galleries or list only two of many pictures in a gallery. What's happening? I am trying to get lists of pictures in galleries.
thanks
John

You remind me of a little kid selling lemonade in front of Walmart and getting pissed they don't advertise to their customers that you're outside in the parking lot.
I give you one thing, you've got real chutzpa to come on this site demanding they help you with your paycheque.
1. Whoopdeedo...you are so financially involved with pbase! You must own stock? No? Are you a partner in their business decisions? No? You're a customer like the rest of us...which leads us to...jchambers wrote:pinemikey wrote:jchambers wrote:Photography helps pay my bills, and maybe my sole income soon. I need proper stats.

Your analogy is so flawed I'm almost embarrassed to even read in. However, let me remind you on a few points here.
1) I am a paying customer to pbase, and due to the size of my gallery, quite a reasonable paying customer.
2) A service I was using on pbase was taken away without notifying me, the paying customer
3) In it's replacement, a lesser functioning service was offered.
Now, using your brain, please explain the connection with a kid (non paying customer) outside Walmart? What connection does this kid have with Walmart? What connection do I have with pbase.
A better analogy would be a third party business was paying Walmart to have a stand outside the hypermarket. Walmart offered space for the paying party to display and sell their products. A business deal was made and both the third party business and Walmart profited from this arrangement.
In the past the third party business used his own stand to display his products. It was custom made and perfectly suited his needs. Then one day, Walmart, without notifying him, removed the stand and replaced it with a generic Walmart stand. Although this stand works as such, it is not as flexible and suitable for the needs of the third party business.
Considering across the road there is another hypermarket that offers the third party use of their forecourt and allows the use of the custom made stand, this gentleman has the right to inform Walmart that he is not happy with the arrangement, and if the new stand can not be custom configured a bit better, he has the option of moving across the road.
Quite simple really isn't it. I certainly hope you are not running your own business, something as fundamental as this should not allude you.

How is pBase for selling photos, how do you promote your images?
I've always wondered what the market is like for selling images online?
Guestbook, profile page, stats pages themselves for example. Possibly editing pages are counted as part of the aggregate but not as part of an individual image/gallery, can't remember.

(1) Whatever the explanation, the difference in stats (461 !!) for "Tues June 6" is very impressive (reproduced below) Exclamation Exclamation
Tues June 6:
-Aggregate = 467
-Most Viewed Images = 1+1+1+1 = 4.
-Most Viewed Galleries = 1+1 = 2.
>>>> A BIG difference of 467-6 = 461 <<<<
(2) Note:
My guestbook has about 3-4 entries.
If I am logged in and access a page or edit something then this does not (ordinarlily) contribute to any hit counts in a gallery or image.
(3) I checked the associated help page but it is unclear as to exactly how the stats are calculated. I was innocently expecting image and gallery hits (implied by the accompanying panes on right hand side of stats page).
Those 461 page views were all you. Apparently you did a lot of editing that day.
