Are you using the site as your photo storage?  I periodically delete some photos, and I am also trying not to post photos that might look terribly similar to others.  I think I may be the only one seeing or caring about all of the nuances of my photos.  I have difficulty deleting photos on my computer, and am working on that.   Deleting is my suggestion and I hope you do not take offense at it.  Personally, I think you take excellent photos.

SLB,

So, your answer is to delete my albums and pics after a while. No, I'm not offended by your take on things, but if you are an official of this site, I must be quite an annoyance to you.

Should we be told to delete pics and albums, or given limits, I will willingly cooperate. Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought 100,000 pics would be a nice milestone for this site.

To store pics online would be very risky considering the site could crash, get hacked up, or taken over by a money-making corporation. I store my photos on CDs I have arranged on shelves in a closet, but in the event of some disaster concerning my CDs, I like to post my favorites here, http://www.photoshop.com/users/mitchelle_wright , and I'm about to buy more space.

When I post a picture here, I'm saying, "Hey guys, look at what I saw today." I'm a relatively private and solitary person socially, and this is my way of being somewhat sociable concerning a subject that has always fascinated me: birds.

I was going to make point concerning the photos on this site in relation to the small amount photo representations The Cornell Lab exhibits for some relatively common birdssuch as the Fox Sparrow. I was going to link you, but the site appears to be down at this moment. www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Fox_Sparrow 

The perils of storing photos online: case in point.

Thanks for not letting my question slide down out of sight without a single reply.
