A couple of things I've noticed about image galleries and the like. My earlier request for the "Image Galleries" link in the main navigation to link to http://www.thudgame.com/image rather than http://www.thudgame.com/galleries (once the css on the former is sorted out) still stands, but the new ones are as follows:
1. Images in a gallery seem to be sorted with the newest first, which probably isn't the way that people would normally add images if they're creating a whole gallery. I think it either needs to be oldest first (since that would be the more common way to create a gallery, I think), or one needs to be able to change the ordering - perhaps allowing alphabetical sorting for instance, so that by using numbers at the front of names you could specify any particular order you liked, regardless of dates.
2. Comments that people add on to images (see road trip 2) dont show any of the information about the poster. The usual block with their picture, name and so forth should be included.

Re: Image-related requests
That point about comments also applies to comments left on blog entries (possibly on all sorts of other content as well, thinking about it - does that mean it's a drupal module thing?)

CSS and links now (almost) sorted out. I say almost, IE is being it's usual self but all appears correctly in proper browsers.

it sorts in the order they were added: i.e. newer pics appear nearer the start whereas pics that have been there a while (months, or minutes) sink towards the bottom. I'll look into why this is as soon as we get a chance.

Yep, not sure why this is but will look into this too. You're right, it should look the same.

Excellent - nicely done.

Re: Image-related requests
One more thing, though I guess this is related to all the other comments about the pics section: it doesn't have a "quote" link.
