A fair point. I've now added a My Photos link under the My Stuff menu.

My Stuff -> Category Admin -> Add Category
I don't see how that is hard to find. I could rename the word Category to Album if that would make it clearer to people?

I’ve now fixed this and moved your January 7th album to the root level. I’m still mulling over how to better organise this because as more albums are created then the more unwieldy this will become.

You should be able to do this by doing the following:
View image you want to move -> Image Tools -> Edit Image -> Select new category
Do you not get this option?

I’ll mention this to the developers of the gallery software and it may become included in future versions. I certainly don’t think you should be attaching any great commercial interest to the number of people viewing your gallery though.

Please note that when uploading band and gig photos I use a much pixel density (increasing file size) than I do for fluff, that's so that the bands can take copies of these photos and make use of them. So I reckon an larger quota would be justified in this instance.

No-one benefits from an unlimited quota quite simply because there isn’t unlimited disk space on the web server. The new gallery software has a considerably better quota management feature than the last software did hence why you are now running into this limit.
Your limit of 25MB is the same limit as is in place for all other Sponsors and Supporters as detailed on this page:

If you wish to have your limit increased then please contact me privately and I’ll be more than happy to discuss this matter further.

Only one less (four rather than five as before) and that was reduced to decrease the page load time as well as make the page display better for people using lower screen resolutions.

A great idea. I'm going to overhaul the sponsorship packages available quite soon and certainly make this a new feature available to some sponsors. You can be assured that The Moorings Bar will be one of such sponsors.
Many thanks for the feedback and keep an eye out for the changes to the sponsorship packages.
