Maybe it's already here but I've missed it somehow ... but I think it would be of great value to members to know how many times a photo has been viewed by others. This way, if a photo is not getting many views beyond the thumb nail, it might be deemed clutter and be deleted. A photo getting lots of views but not being purchased might be a sign that some adjustments are in order. Either way, it might be an indication of what's hot and what's not so the photographer can focus more on what's working.

There's probably other benefits as well.

Just a suggestion.

    Click on the gallery in stats and it has every photo in that gallery with it's
    individual views. This what you're looking for?

    Thanks Allen
    I've been there but it's only showing totals by gallery. It's not showing the number of views of individual photos.

    I have a gut feeling they are going to make me upgrade to power user to get this capability. It seems to be a trend.

    I just discovered that you have to click on the graph lines to bring up the individual photo stats. I got it now.

    Thanks again.
