My .02 (worth about one cent actually). ..
The old site had an "album" section for me and over the years i have populated it with u/l pictures. AFAIK this part of my personal info was always available to any other member that wanted to look. I have sometimes used those photos in links in other parts of the site to illustrate something. I must have overlooked an option to make them 'private'.
I just looked at my album and there seem to be approx the same 21 pix that I recall. I presume that all of the other site members can view them.
If I send a link via email to a friend , hopefully they will continue to click on it and view the image too. (?) The later feature has been helpful to a friend at the Club who is presently re-powering his boat with a new Betamarine and has been discussing how I did this, along with several other club members who have re-poswer their boats.
IMHO, this ability to help other sailors is one of the most 'worthy' goals/outcomes of a site like this.
