Hi all, I am new here finding my way around. I like to look through the gallery and see there are lots of pages but what I need help with is how do I get strait to page 50 or 99 etc instead of starting at page one and advancing one at a time. Imagine how long it would take to get to 700.  I’m probably missing the obvious so would appreciate any help.   Jim

Initially I did wonder why you would want to jump to page 50… but that’s irrelevant because the gallery isn’t set up to do that anyway as far as I know! I believe it does allow you to scroll five pages ahead!

thanks Alan it does look like there is no way to go straight to a page a lot further on, I only recently joined and started looking at the gallery but now after a few looks I need to go to the last page I viewed not page 1. It does appear moving around the gallery is not user friendly.

Hello Jim I’m afraid Alan is correct there is no way to jump pages o them than five at a time unfortunately.  It a bit of a nuisance when your looking for something but it one of the few fault with this lovely site , hopefully you won’t be put off from using it regularly.

One way round it is to save the last gallery page you visited under your internet favourites then when you go back in using that link it should take you straight to the page you left - I’ve tried it a few times and it works on my iPad - quicker than scrolling through five pages at a time!

Thank you all. Jenny, my solution is to leave the last tab open but to save is a good option. I will persevere though it is frustrating.

That's a good idea Jenny...never thought of that.
