I don't see it that way, although I can understand why some would.
I am not a big fan of duplicating other peoples efforts.
That's why I never made a set database, because a great one already
existed.
I was unaware that image hosting was in the Lugnet long-term plan.
It does seem to be a logical extension of the Brickshelf site,
which is essentially an image warehouse. The gallery function grew out
of the need for people to host their personal images. This was also
a great project for me to further develop my C skills with.
I guess you could consider the "Member Index" as a community which might
compete with the Lugnet community. I expect the member index to become
irrelevant as soon as the "recent stuff" page is working. I really had no
choice. If people are going to upload images, they need verified accounts,
and you need some logical way to access/present that information. The
member index is just a side-effect of the image warehouse, not the focus.
The focus is and always will be on the content.
