After about a week and a half of coding, and a day or two of alpha
testing, I am pleased to announce that the BrickShelf.com Gallery is now
open to the public.

Feel free to upload (host) your MOC or other pictures of interest to
the LEGO fan community:

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi

Keep in mind that this is still buggy beta code, and anything can break.
Also note that only the most essential features are in place now, and
many, many features will be added soon.

Note:

the cgi arguments.

for example:
http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/kl/Campus/
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin?f=42
both go to the same place.

Oops, that should have been
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=42

Some more enhancement requests. 1. stats. Can you tell me how many folders and how many images are on file for each person while I am looking at the list of all the people? This way I can tell whether it's worth snooping into someone's folders to (...) (24 years ago, 13-Feb-00, to lugnet.publish)

(...) categorizing web pages, and would like to be able to point to reasonably specific pages, which won't be too changeable, so the number reference doesn't seem ideal since it can change. (24 years ago, 2-Mar-00, to lugnet.publish)
