Thread gallery causing confusion

2 replies

Having the thread gallery appears to be causing some problems with posters thinking that the pictures are of the OP.
This is particularly evident in the thread in Style and Beauty "I stopped dyeing my hair in 2021 but it makes me utterly miserable". Several posters thought the photos were of the OP but they are of another poster who contributed to the thread.
I'm not sure what the solution is. Is it really necessary to have a thread gallery? It worked fine before this feature was introduced, and I would be interested in opinions on this.

Hi there @DoneAndNotDusted (and others). We've had a look at the thread you mention in S&B and can see there has been some confusion there.

We haven't had much confusion about the thread gallery generally, since it launched, but we can see how it might come about and are keen to hear what others think. We'll keep reading this thread for your comments and will give it all some thought.

Morning, everyone. To answer a few questions, no, the photos stay on their specific thread; they won't pop up at random elsewhere. At the moment, the gallery only appears on some boards, so you won't see it everywhere, and it doesn't appear until there are a good few photos there, so you won't get a gallery appearing if only the OP has posted a pic, for example.

Hope that helps.
