LOL-I just learned a couple weeks ago that once you upload the photo...it goes into "Recent Uploads" whether you have clicked display or not. It happened to me several times and I finally figured it out...:) #2225038Niels Sandal February 27, 2006
Very nice colors. I was not aware that a thistle could look like this. And indeed it starts to pulse :-) #2475718Dan McConoughey February 27, 2006

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
The following truth is one of the core philosophies of BetterPhoto:
