User Support & Resources - Home page photo gallery

I think the home page photo gallery should go back to all random pictures instead of all pictures of 1 member. When all are random, we get to see more members rides at a time. Also lets visitors know that we have variety of vehicles on here. :D

I agree, and so does everyone else. But, it's been discussed in this forum at least three other times and every time IB said it was too much of a resource hog. Complaints about the forum being slow take priority over this complaint. So, we're stuck with it this way.

I agree it would be nice, problem is the random generator for the photos has to randomly select a photo from over a hundred thousand images 5 times, and it was taking its sweet ass time in doing so, and it would cause the main page to be slow to load (and all the rest of the pages as a result as it would hog the database servers time).

We were able to make it a lot less intensive for the server (and your browsing experience) by randomly selecting one persons galley, and showing you those images (or multiple people if their gallery had less than 5 images).
Not perfect I agree, but we work with what we got :)

Cool, no problem. :)
