It's a pity...You have a lot of very beautiful pictures. Congratulations! But it's a pity that you dont create new mountain pages. After some time all your pictures will be in few containers and no one will ever look at them Each mountain in Paradiso and other mountain groups should have its own page on Summit post and when interested for them, there people could find also pictures. See a god example of organisation in Dolomites pages and a thread about it (among Europe threads).
Cheers!

Re: It's a pity...The problem is not related to Antonio (who doesn't speak english, so he'll have some trouble creating new mountain pages here) but to the fact that western alps are incredibily neglected on SP. I've read here plenty on information on the most exotic locations of the States, but I see very little "meat" on the good old Cotian and Graian alps, besides the obvious stuff... I tried to interest few friends on making pages on mountains they know very well, but I'm afraid that, as usual, we don't appreciated enough the beauty of the landscape we live in.
Thank God for some brave soul like Marco979, OM, Chandra or Rahel Liu for keeping the Western Alps torchlight high...
In other words - Western Alps aren't just Mt. Blanc and Matterhorn...

Re: It's a pity...I fully agree with you!
But we should be patient. There's so many climbers and mountaineers and sooner or later some will show up. I wouldn't care too much if mountain pages don't have a lot of information in the beginning. What is beautiful on SummitPost is group work. Just start a page, and somebody will add text, the other one pictures and so on. But if you attach pictures to one page, you can later never transfer them to the other page (without loosing votes). And in addition, as I said many times here - too much information is no information! If there are hundreds of pictures attached to a page no one will have patience to search through them.
What should Antonio do? Simply send a few mails in Italian language to you, to colleagues on SummitPost and make a joint agreement to build new pages. And only then post pictures there. I am also waiting with many pictures till a specific mountain page will be created.
Cheers!
