Hi Virgil and Jay,

Thanks for bumping this. I just got off of my butt and voted. So…many…excellent galleries from which to choose. Difficult to just pick just three, but pick I did.

One thing I like about this system is that we all get three votes and do not have to pick just one. I had trouble with narrowing to three, but far better than only one. LOL.

We are officially more than 9000 members here, including over 900 new members who joined in 2021. I’m curious to see how many will vote!

Yeah, I was thinking 22 wasn't very many considering the size of the group here. Still a few days to go.

Sadly, it likely reflects that not many users are actively looking at the galleries - which is a shame.  There are amazing galleries here to browse.

Unfortunately, in probably the majority of cases the gallery view numbers are made up by the visits of the owners of the gallery themselves.

I don't think gallery view numbers go up from owners unless the thread has changed with a new post.

I think the software only logs new IP addresses as new views unless a change was made, like a comment.  I've gone back several times to look at a coin in a gallery without the number of views going up.

On my system (Safari, Mac) multiple visits to the same item only increases the page views if I have deleted my cookies in the meantime.  As for actually clicking on the gallery item, I work on a fairly large screen so sometimes I can look at the photo and description without actually going to the page.  I make a point of checking for new items every time I open Forum and really appreciate the effort members make to post their collections!

Even with so few votes, we are going to have a great winner.

I haven’t been posting much lately, but I did take the time to vote.  The galleries are an awesome resource.

I hope to post more often too :)

Thank you for voting for my gallery.  With all these beautiful galleries I did not expect this result.

It is always my goal that my gallery is not only fun for me, but can also be helpful for others, and I think I'm not the only one. Together we formed a wonderful members gallery.

Congratulations also to schatz, and his magnificent gallery, and to all the others.
