@A2Dave, right now, we're using Flickr slideshows for photo galleries, and Flickr slideshows don't display captions. We're in the process of building our own photo gallery, which will have captions, and we'll switch to that as soon as it's available.
@A2Dave - There are captions with the photos, trust me. But to see them, you need to do the following. First, click on the picture window, you'll notice there is a box in the bottom right of the window with four diagonal arrows. Click on this box and it will give you a full screen view of the slideshow. Now take your cursor and go to the top right of the window and you will see a series of links, including 'show info.' Click on 'show info' and you will see the caption for each photograph on the screen. Hope this helps.

Why do you insist on running uncaptioned photographs--even single shots often appear without explanation?

Thanks, Lon. Now I know where to find the captions. I, too, was bummed out re no captions. Enjoy your pics, as always.
