Dear forumchane!
At the request of Asar, I post the following sentence.

In the subject line "Suggestions and comments on the site and forum" a proposal was put forward to bring all the photos of insects published on the Forum to a single catalog with convenient search and preview. It was also suggested that photos of butterflies should be cataloged using the site's gallery Lepidoptera.ru. As a result of adding photos from the Forum to the gallery Lepidoptera.ru you should get a really extensive selection of photos, and a variety of settings will allow you to quickly find the right photos.

Users whose photos of butterflies were found on the Forum pages were sent private messages with a request to express their consent/disagreement to the publication of their photos in the gallery in this topic. Lepdoptera.ru.

If you have received such a message, please indicate in this topic whether you agree to the publication of images and / or register on the site Lepidoptera.ru by entering your nickname on the Forum in the "Personal information" field. If you agree to publish, but for some reason do not want to register on the site, send a personal message to Asar with your first / last name (all photos are published with the signature of the photographer's name)
If you posted photos of butterflies on the site, but did not receive messages (this may happen because the list of authors was compiled manually), please also check in this topic
If your photos are available on other Internet resources in more quantity / better quality than on the forum, and you agree to their publication, please let us know to this topic or by email main#lepidoptera.ru
If you do not agree to the publication of your work, please inform us about your decision in this topic
. If you have any questions about this project , you can ask them here

No photos will be published until the author explicitly consents to such publication.

Everything would be fine, but it would not be bad to slightly change the lipidopter site itself. It is necessary to divide the visual environment so that it is clear-where is the description of the photo, and where is the information to add - otherwise everything merges terribly and is difficult to understand. It is better to divide by color.
Secondly, we need to reduce the number of partitions. For example, to look at Glaucopsyche, you need to click on a bunch of links until they lead to a separate list of species of the genus Glaucopsyche, although it would be better if these species were highlighted at an earlier stage. And the presence of a photo should be shown by a small icon after the name, and not by a long line "with a description or photo", which only misleads and does not give much information about what is there-a description or photo..
And of course, it would not be bad to visually separate the butterflies themselves-diaries, nocturnals, microns .. Otherwise, it is not very convenient to search among all the names of any specific diaries or anyone else. Again, you can use color.
It wouldn't be a bad idea to get a sample of a group of species on a page, rather than just a selection for one species, for example, a photo of the genus Glaucophsyche on a single page divided by species, otherwise it's not always convenient to click on different species to find out what they look like, especially if you need to open many species at once..

In general, if you bring the site to the most convenient view, then sending photos there will be a pleasure, otherwise it is much more convenient to use molbiol.

I regularly make changes/additions. New offers are always interesting.

It is necessary to divide the visual environment so that it is clear-where is the description of the photo, and where is the information to add - otherwise everything merges terribly and is difficult to understand. It is better to divide by color.

Do you mean the sections for Adding photos and Comments on the page with the view description? IMO, they are completely separated by subheadings and information about authors and sources standing above them. But I'll try, maybe the color really will be more convenient.

Secondly, we need to reduce the number of partitions. For example, to look at Glaucopsyche, you need to click on a bunch of links until they lead to a separate list of species of the genus Glaucopsyche, although it would be better if these species were highlighted at an earlier stage.

For each taxon, we now display taxa one or two levels lower. If you display more, it will be a mess of a huge number of views on one page (not for all taxa, but still).
To solve the problem of quickly selecting the necessary views, you plan to use a free selection, just like now in the gallery, only with different parameters and a different visual.

And the presence of a photo should be shown by a small icon after the name, and not by a long line "with a description or photo", which is only misleading and does not give much information about what is there - a description or photo..

The icon is not a law, but as for the ambiguity of the information, I agree, I will correct it.

And of course, it would not be bad to visually separate the butterflies themselves-diaries, nocturnals, microns .. Otherwise, it is not very convenient to search among all the names of any specific diaries or anyone else. Again, you can use color.

In the current interface, there is actually no place to separate them. But in free samples, you will see the output of popular samples, as well as the ability to add your own. That's where it will be micra, daily, etc.

It wouldn't be a bad idea to get a sample of a group of species on a page, rather than just a selection for one species, for example, a photo of the genus Glaucophsyche on a single page divided by species, otherwise it's not always convenient to click on different species to find out what they look like, especially if you need to open many species at once..

Now you can do this in the gallery. In the future, it will also be available in free samples by type.

In general, if you bring the site to the most convenient view, then sending photos there will be a pleasure, otherwise it is much more convenient to use molbiol.

Question: now you agree to the publication of your photos or now you don't, and then — maybe?
