Hi everyone,

I'm in talks with a particular photo finishing network in Australia with regards to integrating support for their labs into Gallery. They have asked for a guestimate on the number of Australian users. Anyone care to hazard a guess?

Thanks in advance!

Richard

Pick a number.

You could guess 33,000 . . .

Or 450...

http://www.google.com/search?num=50&hl=en&lr=&ie=ISO-8859-1&newwindow=1&safe=off&q=site%3Aau+%22powered+by+gallery%22+albums

450 is at least a more accurate estimate of the number of Australia Galleries that comply with the following two requirements:
1.) "Powered by Gallery"-link not removed
2.) Hosted in a .au domain.

However, 450 Galleries means many more users than this number, since most Galleries will be viewed by many more people than the owner (I hope ;)). So maybe you'd better stick with joan's estimate :D

Joan, BorgKing, thanks for your help. I can't believe I didn't even think of asking Google!

I think the number would be much higher,your search criteria not very accurate! I would like to help promote Gallery to printing services ... what can we do?

Yes, it would be higher. It does not include pages with non-australian domains,nor does it include pages that have no external links to them. I'd assume most family galleries are not linked to from the outside world.

Bharat may have a better estimate for you . . ..
