Here's my two cents. Keep BOTH picture "forums" open. why?

Well, for example, think to the photo threads on recent Burns Nights. Those threads have lots of pictures which are all linked by a common idea, in our case the "Nor Cal Burns Night". While it's currently possible to add one or two or three photos to a thread about "Nor Cal Burns Night", when viewing the photos, there's not much context to link them together. The same goes for Cessna2towser and pour1malt's Scotland trip photo threads.

i admit that I haven't tried the slide show function, yet. That might answer my thoughts.

ABSOLUTELY!!!

A gallery is nice but it does NOT take the place of photo threads.
