I still hope we can implement a solution that allows members to do this without any editorial help. It shouldn't be that difficult to have a 'custom' option in the piece-set selector of Game Courier, and a text entry where the user can specify the directory where he uploaded the images.

I'm not an expert on Game Courier, but I want to make sure this doesn't get lost in the comments. I agree this would be nice. I can have a look into it if Fergus or Greg don't have time in the near future.

... I think the site would also benefit from a more organized presentation of the available piece sets. There are may sets now that are hidden in membergraphics directories, which people who could benefit from them would never find.

I agree. I do think that some editorial review should happen though. Perhaps a new page type should be added, the graphics home extended to query those page types, and Courier set to look for either the traditional folder or membergraphics folders attached to pages of that type.

I am inclined to agree. Also, I would like to know how to group sets together...

I don't know anything about this right now, but wanted to quote it so that it's on the top of my (our) mind(s) as we work this out.
