Hello Don,
Thank you very much for you time and constructive comments.
It's great to hear you like and understand the concept behind ThePIC.
Clearly you can tell I'm a novice with this entire internet and blogging stuff, the ADGoT team who are doing the website are far more experienced.
As for the content of the pictures, well frankly anything and everything, as long as they are 'family friendly' and comply with T&C's of membership. The wider the range of topics and subject matter we have the more appealing ThePIC will be to customers. I wish I knew exactly what would sell but people are looking for 'beautiful' pictures and beauty as we all know is in the eye of the beholder.
The test room is in very early development, I like your idea of multiple pictures on the wall like a gallery but I'm surprised you were able to find it – you clearly know your way around websites.
We will be keeping people up to date with progress via the website BLOG, some forums, LinkedIn and Facebook.
The `right click' copy function has been commented on before and we will be rectifying this problem.
We are in the BETA phase and things are changing and progressing very quickly, we have changed the pictures on the customer site www.thepic.co.uk to give the customers a sense of the images we now have available, we now also have a `progress' bar on the up loader and the ability to change and judge the strength of your password.
Once again thank you for comments and time and maybe I could look forward to seeing you join and spreading the word to others about the FREE opportunity ThePIC is offering to photographers.
Clearly
Tony and Not David

You might want to have your web development team check that out. I was able to right click your cute frog and see it as a web page on it's own--too small for anything but a website--but still.... You can see that feature on my currently under development website.
