"Photos" a forgotten resource?

#1
I just spent a couple hours looking through the photo section of the website and one thing became obvious, most of the photos have minimal views. I have trouble believing more people don't use this resource!

100% agreed that it is an underutilized and valuable resource. I do not think it is "forgotten". It takes a little practice/work to use it properly and many
members are lazy and prefer to ask someone ELSE to post a photo for them rather than find it themselves. The same could be said for the Google Custom Chrome Search feature at the top of every page (another great resource). There are MANY previous discussions there that would provide information and answers to questions posted every day, yet many do not even research them before asking on the forum. Anybody who has been on this forum for a least 4-5 years will remember OldMiniBikes member "Mr. Bungle" who used to reply to questions with "Let me Google that for you."

When I was out of work on Comp :doah: back in 2010 and 2011 I used it all the time to research "What is it" 's and I was (before the site revamp) one of the highest answer givers :thumbsup:

I use the photo section for many reasons, mostly for reference and to find the name brand of that mini on the tip of my tongue for an ID. You have to roll with the changes here, it's user friendly enough for me still.

They're used when first posted within a thread. View counts wont reflect that. The search function within the photos is not friendly, and posters themselves do not adequately title the photos for searches. The only way I can find a photo is google images search anyway.

I was trying to find the pic of Waynes little bike on the seat of a Super Bronc but couldn't find it... I gave up.
I've spent many hours combing through the searches looking for LiL Indian info. I do it every now and again and I still find info that I haven't caught yet. Sometimes it's just easier to ask if it's going to be something obscure but the common stuff isn't that hard to find that gets asked about repeatedly.

Wayne has one of the best albums on here if not the best! Here you go Randy.
