I don't like the album section

In general I'm very happy with 2.0, and I hate to be critical of anything. I'm sure you have your reasons, and I've given this a lot of thought before saying anything, but I really don't love the way the album section on our individual pages work, and that we have no control over what shows up there, other than to post or not to post. For me it's been post inhibiting, and as @pinkapricorn mentioned in the don't do list, everything you post anywhere, even if it's an example of someone else's art for study or whatever, shows up in your "album."

@pinkapricorn @Teresa Bolen don't worry about being critical :) Albums are in the early stage of development right now and we do plan to offer more organizational controls in the future. This was something I noticed too when we first rolled out the site and I did talk with Stan about it.
I've seen this thread already and at the time I had noting to respond with but it just hit me that I do have something helpful to add.
If for some reason the Proko team wants to keep a record of every image a user has posted on the forum, I suggest you call it something else. Like just to throw something out there maybe put it in a place labeled "post record" or something. Make it clear that the album is something separate from this and give the user control over what is displayed in it, kind of like your gallery on Deviant Art.
Once again, I don't know what you guy's intention is for the album but if you'd like to have a discourse about that I'll happily participate.
