The listing function has currently been removed because of Google Images. Google had many of our pictures in their service and everytime an image was selected it would pull up the index file page that was over 2 megs for the 34,000 some pictures. We got hit with an additional bandwidth charge last month because of Google Images. It actually tripled our normal usage.We are working on a search engine to replace the old index page and find the images.

Butchcee, I knew how to do that part, but I thought there HAD to be a better way, especially if you don't know the name of the file. I appreciate your help, nonetheless.

Ed - there is. Index all your uploaded pictures with the same name, then number them in sequence, and write them down on paper for faster lookup.

A/C, not pictures I posted. I keep all of mine on my own computer. I guess there is no shortcuts.
