Gallery photos

How often do people here look at the photos in the gallery?
 
Some viewers look at those which are attached to threads, but I was inspired to add about 20 photos to the gallery simply by seeing the random images at the top of each page, and then looking at the galleries themselves.  I'm actually quite disappointed by these galleries - not by the quality or variety of the photos, but simply because they are comparatively few in number.
 
There are thousands of members on here, quite a few of whom are FSUW who presumably return home at least occasionally to catch up with friends and family, and there are many men, married or single, who have been at least once.  However, you would think from these photos that there are only a couple of hundred members!
 
Very few of these photos are recent; many have been submitted by members that I have never seen post, or whose last activity was several years ago.  It's also rather sad that, in the Weddings gallery, there are still photos of members happily posing with their new brides when you can read from subsequent posts that the marriage didn't last.
 
How difficult would it be for current members just to add even one or two of their favourite shots?  Just as an example, my 20 are out of about 3,500 that I took on the two trips - there are many more that I could post, but I don't want to swamp the board!  8)   Even the ladies must have photos of their home town, or a holiday in Crimea (for example) with the man who is now their husband.
 
Think about it - don't just eat popcorn!  :popcorn:

Interesting that, despite, the views, nobody has posted!  You can't all agree, surely?  :P

There are some, including myself that don't like posting pictures for privacy reasons.  I do occasionally send some via email to those members that I like to keep closer contact with or have done the same.

Which is why all the ones I've uploaded are tourist shots!  I feel the same way as you about privacy, but it doesn't worry me if people figure out that I've been on a tram in Krasnodar!
