I only used the example of robot pics to show the kind of pictures that I would give positive points for. I think anyone who shares pics of their robot is worthy of positive rep, so I would personally give them it. If your team member was distributing info not meant for release, you may want to give him negative rep (and discuss it further in person, no doubt ;-).

I'm just saying that we users should get the option of giving rep on pictures.

Sorry for the confusion... I'll keep my $.02 to myself next time......

Actually, I think you were on to something. Positive/Negative Reputation options could reward a member for posting clear, detailed, appropriately-sized pictures on ChiefDelphi. This might help to sift out some of the junky, blurrym, 1600 by 1200 pictures out there that really do annoy mostly everyone. I like the idea. Just as Positive/Negative rep help control post quality, Positive/Negative rep can control gallery post quality. There's honestly nothing to lose.
