geoff777, the topic of SEO has been discussed for years here, the developers just haven't made it a huge priority because PhotoPost is meant for people, not search engines. What I've done as a workaround is put a bunch of entries in my robots.txt telling search engines to not index many of the duplicate URLs. The problem is there are many different URLs which will take a user to the page. Google wastes your bandwidth and their time indexing the same page through multiple URLs. An update to robots.txt is a good interim measure until a better SEO'd photo-posting software script comes along ;-) Straight up, I'm not trying to be an ass, but I imagine all it would take is another company to come out with a properly SEO'd script and you guys will lose business.
