I think at this time it would be a good to discuss at a future meeting about how to make Leaky Lounge more accessible, including members perks.

Madame Pince's Spectacles
This would be a pair of her glasses - that act as information and visuals. It also could be visually like a slot machine - when you tap on one glass side the image stops, and you see the video, or look at the picture - while the other eye glass gives you the information about the video or picture.

Time Frame Data Updating.
Leaky has so many images from the Harry Potter Films - but what if there was a time stamp - that lets a person know where exactly this image appears in each film? There could be a note if the image was for promotional use, but still placed within the time frame of each film.

Like Madame Pince's Spectacles - you could make the images appear slow or fast. You could have in the search drive - images featuring Daniel Radcliffe - and you could view the images from the films in one eye piece - and the premiere/photos of the same film in the other eye glass piece.

I do hope there would be a Submit Parchments Here - put somewhere on Leaky so people can load their images, links to articles, and videos in a clear accessible way. This would make it easier for monitors assigned to this task since all would be coming through the same data connection. Leaky Lounge might even get more data submitted, and quicker when people find out. Right now it's not exactly very clear how you submit pictures, links, and videos to Leaky - even in the Leaky Lounge Galleries. Possibly think of some type of click link where people could submit their parchments.

Thanks for keeping an open mind!

Cheers,

Helyx

P.S. Please could you correct the title = typed to quick to correct Madame Pince - Please take the S out or she will never let me into the library again!

Thanks for the suggestion - I'll send off your suggestions to the various staffers in charge of those areas.

Thanks again!
