You're close Pam,
The way I understand it, the Random Pictures and Recent Addition sections are not controlled by individuals. The Random section display pictures that are randomly selected from the user's galleries.
You're right on the Recent Additions, that section displays the last pictures that were added. If you're in a specific club member's gallery, the pictures displayed are specific to that club member.
You've basically got it on the organization. I like to think of it as I have 3 Albums in my photo gallary. Sort-of like if you had 3 different photo album books at home.
But I think you're still a little confused on the file/picture counts. emam has 9 pictures posted. If you go into emam's gallery and click on the picture in the top section / pane, you'll see all 9 pictures.
The Random and Last additions sections within emam's gallery are just a subset of his pictures and you'll notice that some pictures are duplicated in both the Random and Last additions sections. All pictures displayed in the Random and Last addition sections are also included in a club member's album.
To see all of any one's pictures in their photo album, go the the club members gallery, then click on the picture within the top section / pane of the album you want to look at. For my gallery I have 3 albums, therefore there are 3 pictures in the top section. For emam, they have 1 album, therefore there is only 1 picture in the top section.
While navigating throught the various photo pages, I've found it easier to always click on the pictures. If you click on the screen name, the club member's profile comes up.
Does that help anymore?
