but the forum search fucking sucks
Go do something very basic...
Go to your account page, look in the options and go to Preferences, and scroll down to the part with Search Options.
That's a grand total of three clicks.
Then look at the post above yours, and take note of the username. It's the same as the username of the dev...
Now, using those two seemingly unrelated pieces of info I've given you, if you type "gallery" into the search box and that username, you'll be taken to all 14 of the search results of his posts where that word is mentioned, including the last official word here on whether or not this game that is now near the end will ever have a gallery built-in to it.
