Brian, thank you so much for providing the gallery.  I love having it,
since I don't have my own web page,
but people can still see my pictures.  And because I'm on the digest, I
like the current non-attachment system -
I also would not like to be barraged by lots of messages.  If you are
tweaking the gallery, is there any way to
have the scroll list of years go back farther than 1970?  I have scans of
pictures from the 60's.
