gestion:

It would be nice, from my perspective, if you could allocate a small amount of
space in a corner of the image or in a text bar bellow the images in the
Calendar to put a description of the context, such as "GZG ECC III, 1997, 'A
Grey Day To Die', Humans desperately try to survive a
hostile first-contact with the Kra'Vak."  You could also list the photo
submitter and who ran the game. The description could identify the
personalities if we see players in the photos.

I find that I look at a lot of the photos and wonder what game they were from
and what the context was. Why was the ground blue? Why are those hovertanks
blue? etc.

I think that's a photo of Adrian's Gurkhas but perhaps I'm mistaken. I don't
think mine put antenna up from the comms guy, so I think they're like
Adrian's. The Grey Day Photo I recognize, although it is a pity you got the
photo of the uglier of the two Tempests tanks in there. (a.k.a. the Kafer
Deathsled....)

Good suggestion, thanks, but you wouldn't want to overload the caption entry
with too much text. Also, I don't have control of the fonting or where it
would go (lower center). And most of the photos *I* don't even know what games
they were from. A lot of the images I have are listed like
"eccII-208.jpg".

I took those that were best in focus. A lot of the GD images (that I
recognized as GD shots) were somewhat out of focus.

Also, a lot of the images in the earlier archives are of low resolution,
restricting what I can use in larger format without getting pixellated.

I'm always up for suggestions, submissions, etc. Feedback is always good, and
if I can find a way to improve things from it, I will.
