I don't want to second guess or cross boundaries. I just had a couple of members tree mail me awhile ago (maybe last year) and in no uncertain terms they told me to NEVER submit proposals to move their photos over, that if they felt they were good enough and wanted them in the DB, they would do it themselves. I was informed (rightly) that I should have asked first and I felt so bad because I wasn't thinking and I really should have asked. I too am flattered if someone thinks my pictures are good enough for the database but I understand some folks are touchy about stuff. So ... I haven't moved photos from threads to the database since then. I think maybe lots of folks don't realize they can opt out of that process; I didn't realize it until Jennifer mentioned it earlier in this thread.
