The Red Brick Times

I took a quick peek at our photo gallery this morning (it's been awhile) to see if there were any new pics (nope) and discovered that a spammer had added hundreds of spam comments. It was probably done through use of a bot. I figured out a way to get rid of them in mass but the few legitimate comments were deleted too. It was unavoidable. I'm pretty sure I plugged the hole that allowed them to do this but we'll have to wait and see to be sure.

I don't keep track of how often the gallery feature is used but my suspicion is that except for when it was new not much (if at all). I don't want to spend time supporting it if it's not something RBT'ers want to have so please let me know your thoughts on keeping it.

Maybe not individual account albums, but a group space to post the occasional graphic. Would that be less overhead?
