user gallery (InkSpace)
Hi Friends, I've just discovered this page: https://inkscape.org/en/~brynn/gallery/brynns-gallery/. I wanted to ask some questions instead of making a bug report, in case the problems are already fixed, or about to be fixed. In the future, will there be a way to change the title, such as change "brynn's gallery" to "brynn's artwork" (or whatever)? Since it says "None" underneath the title, does that mean there is going to be a way to add a description? Or maybe there already is, and I haven't found it yet? How does it decide which image to use for the thumbnail? I think that's the first image I uploaded. But it would be nice to be able to choose. Also that thumbnail doesn't have the correct proportions. It's distorted. And finally. It's not easy to find this page, and it seems like it should be more easily accessible. I don't understand why it goes from my profile (https://inkscape.org/en/~brynn/gallery/brynns-gallery/) where I have to click on "All Uploads" (https://inkscape.org/en/~brynn/gallery/). And then from there, click on "brynn's gallery" (https://inkscape.org/en/~brynn/gallery/brynns-gallery/). It seems like the Galleries menu (bottom-right of https://inkscape.org/en/~brynn/gallery/) should be on the profile page. The Media Category and License menus could go on brynn's gallery page (https://inkscape.org/en/~brynn/gallery/brynns-gallery/). I can see how it's helpful to have an "all uploads" page. But having to click through it, to find the gallery page (or pages), seems unnecessary. I think the galleries should be linked directly from the profile. Let me know if any of these should be written in a new bug report. I'll be glad to create one. But otherwise, just having those questions answered would be much appreciated.
Thank you very much, brynn
Hi Brynn,
will there be a way to change the title, such as change "brynn's gallery" to "brynn's artwork" (or whatever)? Since it says "None" underneath the title, does that mean there is going to be a way to add a description? Or maybe there already is, and I haven't found it yet?
There's supposed to be, but it's not there in the new design. So that's a bug.
How does it decide which image to use for the thumbnail? I think that's the first image I uploaded. But it would be nice to be able to choose. Also that thumbnail doesn't have the correct proportions. It's distorted.
That's also a bug report. There is a way to select the thumbnail, but it's not restrictive enough for general use since you can at the moment pick /any/ work ever uploaded.
And finally. It's not easy to find this page, and it seems like it should be more easily accessible. I don't understand why it goes from my profile (https://inkscape.org/en/~brynn/gallery/brynns-gallery/) where I have to click on "All Uploads" (https://inkscape.org/en/~brynn/gallery/).
And then from there, click on "brynn's gallery" (https://inkscape.org/en/~brynn/gallery/brynns-gallery/). It seems like the Galleries menu (bottom-right of https://inkscape.org/en/~brynn/gallery/) should be on the profile page.
How would you lay it out?
The Media Category and License menus could go on brynn's gallery page (https://inkscape.org/en/~brynn/gallery/brynns-gallery/).
I deliberately took out the extra filters for the gallery pages. I want to make the gallery pages seem less like the normal "all works" pages.
I can see how it's helpful to have an "all uploads" page. But having to click through it, to find the gallery page (or pages), seems unnecessary. I think the galleries should be linked directly from the profile.
This would need a spot of UI work, how would they link, what would the link look like?
Let me know if any of these should be written in a new bug report. I'll be glad to create one. But otherwise, just having those questions answered would be much appreciated.
Thanks brynn, this is a good review of the gallery pages.

LOL, seems we've almost written the same things, Martin :)

Mobile security can be enabling, not merely restricting. Employees who bring their own devices (BYOD) to work are irked by the imposition of MDM restrictions. Mobile Device Manager Plus allows you to control only the apps on BYO-devices by containerizing them, leaving personal data untouched! https://ad.doubleclick.net/ddm/clk/304595813;131938128;j

Ok, here's a simple mockup:

Brynn, would you add the mockup in a bug report/feature request, too? (Sorry, I think we weren't clear about that...). On the mailing list, it's much more difficult to keep track of your suggestions, this would make it easier for us to not loose any good info.

Ok, no problem. Yes, that's why I post to the list first, because often what I think is a bug isn't, or a feature request that's already in the works.

Hi Brynn,
you chose the name 'brynn's gallery' yourself when you created that subgallery ;) Would you like me to change the name for that subgallery?
It's like a folder inside your main gallery (but the main gallery always shows every file, also those in the subgalleries).
Since it says "None" underneath the title, does that mean there is going to be a way to add a description?
The 'None' is indeed the empty description, which probably shouldn't show when there isn't one (fix committed).
Adding that description is currently not possible via the website (or rather, only possible if you have access to the admin interface).
In the future, will there be a way to change the title, such as change "brynn's gallery" to "brynn's artwork" (or whatever)?
Changing a gallery's name doesn't seem to be possible at the moment (at least not by just clicking around on the website).
We could make feature requests for those above two issues (summarized as 'Editing a gallery needs to be implemented'). I think it once was possible, but got lost...
Also that thumbnail doesn't have the correct proportions. It's distorted.
For the distorted thumbnail, we'd need a separate bug report.
How does it decide which image to use for the thumbnail? I think that's the first image I uploaded
- It will go through all the images you uploaded into that gallery and pick the first one that is published, yes. Admins can set an image explicitly. You could add that to the 'Editing a gallery' feature request.
And finally. It's not easy to find this page, and it seems like it should be more easily accessible. I don't understand why it goes from my profile (https://inkscape.org/en/~brynn/gallery/brynns-gallery/) where I have to click on "All Uploads" (https://inkscape.org/en/~brynn/gallery/). And then from there, click on "brynn's gallery" (https://inkscape.org/en/~brynn/gallery/brynns-gallery/).

But having to click through it, to find the gallery page (or pages), seems unnecessary. I think the galleries should be linked directly from the profile.
- How would you do that? (in terms of 'where would you like them to show up?) Can you make a mockup?
Thanks for the gallery usage feedback!
Kind Regards, Maren
Thanks guys :-) Hah, that's a nice new description someone added!
I really came to discover this page while explaining about the gallery to someone who will need a new place to show their images after IF disappears. So I'm looking at it from the perspective of an artist who wonders if this will be a good place to start a gallery.
Replying to both Martin's and Maren's at the same time. Well yes, they are nearly the same answers anyway.
Regarding the title of the gallery. Because I chose such a generic title, I wasn't sure if it was using the name I chose, or if it was automatically adding the username in front of " 's gallery".
So no, I don't need to change it, at least not right now. But for example, if I were to add a new gallery, I would probably want to change the name. (When I first started my gallery, I had no idea it was possible to have more than 1 album/gallery. So that's why I gave it such a generic name.) (Actually a lot of people might be in this same boat.)
And many artists probably would like the ability to move images from one gallery to another, change the titles, change the descriptions and choose the thumbnails.
I will make a bug report for editing personal galleries. And another for the proportions of the thumbnail.
Also, I'll make a mockup to show what I'm thinking. Unless I run in to a problem, I'll post it shortly.
All best, brynn
