Number of screenshots
Maybe I just didn't figure out your way of counting yet, but for all games which only have the top two screenshots, it says "Screenshots: 1" while for games which have more screenshots, only the lower ones are counted.

yes, screenshot number one is call "the DBS" it is our title double barel screenshot. all other screenshot are standard ingame addition.
so, screenshot = 1 means one DBS screenshot = 3 means one DBS + two ingame normal screen |

I don't want to be annoying about this, but it's still not correct for many games
 Some examples:Cruise for a Corpse (listed with 5 instead of 6) Curse of Enchantia (listed with 5 instead of 6) Dark Seed (listed with 4 instead of 5) KGB (listed with 7 instead of 8) King's Quest 5 (listed with 4 instead of 5) I think you get the idea. In case these are just individual mistakes of database entries, please just disregard this post. If then number is generated 'on the fly' by the script though, you should have another look at the routine... |

On the summary listing of each game (the list you get when you search), the number under the S is the total number of screens e.g. DBS (Double Barrel Screenshot) + the alt screens.
On the other hand, in each game info page, the Screenshot link refers to only the alt screens, because that's what it links to. Therefore, the number on each game page should be one less than the number in the search lists... |

Ok, in that case, all the examples I mentioned are in fact correct
 But I just noticed it's not correct for games with only the DBS then (for example http://hol.abime.net/?id=2538 ). They are listed with one screenshot on both pages.

More nitpicking from me on the same subject (can't deny it any longer: I love nitpicking
): now it says "only DBS" even for the games with the DBS "Missing in Action".
