Collecting email addresses of viewers

Hello

is there any way to collect the contact details of the people looking at the galleries?
I can see the event tools - but that's relying on people following that particular link isn't it?

What i'd like is that everybody who looks at certain galleries has to sign in before they can see the photographs.

What do you think ?

Cheers

John

    I think you'll turn a lot of people away quickly, or end up with a bunch of bogus email addresses.

    I know I would never hand over a real email address just to view some pictures on the web.

    Yes, the event tools are the best option for that and you can require event registration. I do agree with mbellot that you will likely see an increase of bogus addresses. I personally do not register to view much online and when I do, its using a disposable address.
