"New" Ancestry.com (15 Dec 2015) - Recommendation #2: Provide a Count of User Submitted Media in the Gallery

"New" Ancestry.com (15 Dec 2015) - Recommendation #2:  Provide a count of user submitted media in the gallery

Background: If I'm viewing an individual on another user's tree, I'd like to know if they have any user submitted media. These items can be especially valuable because they may be out of a user's personal holdings or they may be from another website.


- Old Ancestry: shows thumbnails of 5 media items; underneath it provides a count of the number of each type. I can easily assess whether I should spend valuable time clicking to the gallery page.



- New Ancestry: does show any user submitted photos on the fact page nor does it provide a count (as it does for hints).


Recommendation: Add a count of user submitted media items in the gallery and include some images on the fact page.
