Is anyone aware of a quick way you can leave a comment on someone's card in the main gallery (called today's additions) and them return to the same page you were viewing?
I'm finding that once I leave a comment... for example on page 12, I'm not able to return to page 12. I will then need to click on "home" and then figure out where I was. And of course by using the card I just left a comment on as a guide doesn't really help because it's moved up a few pages.
I know you can be conscience of the page # you are leaving a comment on and then after clicking home, simply click on the page number to return to where you were... however I get so mesmerized by some of these gorgeous cards that looking at page #'s is the last thing on my mind.
That's why I'm wondering if I'm missing something that could easily return me to the bulk of the Today's Additions after viewing and leaving a comment on a card for someone.
I would love to know this, too. I always just click on "Back" several times until I get to the original page I saw the card on the first time. There has to be an easier way, right?

Well Wendy, at least until we get the answer, if there is one --- your way is much faster then what I'm doing. I was used to clicking "back" a couple of times before, but when I didn't find the main page I would click on "home". But you are abolutely right - by just clicking back 3 or 4 times, I was right back on the page where I left a comment.
This is a big help! Makes me want to leave more comments on cards that I love. Thanks!!
You can either click back three times quickly, or click the arrow to the right of the back and select "All images powered by Photopost." Either will return you to the same page you just left. HTH.

Cathy... you have just made my freakin day. That tiny little arrow has been there for how long? (DUH) And I've never ever clicked on it! That little arrow has even made it easier getting back to this forum. I really appreciate you taking the time to read my question and leaving me an answer. I really love this site, but now this makes using this site so much easier.
If you open the card you are interested in seeing in another window or tab then your index page stays the same and you do not have to go "back" Just right click on the photo and choose "open in new window" ;)

Right click on the picture and open in new window. Then you can close that window and the page you were originally viewing will be there. I do the same thing when reading the forums.

THIS THREAD HAS TOTALLY MADE MY DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was clicking on back 3 or 4 times. I feel really silly right now!!!!
Both the tiny arrow to the right of the back arrow and the right click idea work wonderfully. Going through the gallery for new cards and leaving comments will be so much faster. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
It depends on the browser you are using. If you use IE it will open in a new window. If you use Mozilla, Firefox, or Netscape you can open in a new tab or new window. They are all free downloads for browsers.

Thanks! I tried opening in a new window as well - and it works wonderfully. Thanks for the great tip - now I have two easy ways of leaving a comment and before I had none... so glad I asked.
Carla.
PS - Mother of 6?! When on earth do you have time to stamp?
Just a note to those who open a lot of windows when viewing the gallery....Jenn Balcer cautioned in a recent post that it really sloooows the site down, so it actually defeats the purpose.

Even if you close the new window each time after you are done? It has been my habit recently to view the forums in one tab and the gallery in another (using Firefox), but if that slows things down I'll stop.
