This is really fun. My only wish is that I could see some information about the photos in the summary screen. Maybe a photographer credit or link to a Wikipedia?

I think that is pretty dang cool. Perhaps one expansion could allow people to add some text - details about each photo if an explanation is required. Either way, that's a neat site - nice work.

Love it! Nice job.

It would be nice to have a link with more information about the single photos, at least the exact time and place where it was shot, i can then look for the related events myself.

Cool! Would be nice if you could permalink to specific photos.

Wow, fantastic website! Would be perfect if the filenames of the pictures had the name of the picture + author in it.

Cool, more photos would be nice.

I agree, I would like better attribution, and possibly some context. The photos are beautiful, but with some information about what I am looking at, it would be much more interesting.

Very cool! Might want to add a section / link on what kind of images we should use to give the maximum wow factor

If you took pictures please consider adding them to the Wikipedia page. There seem to be relatively few available.

Great gallery to commemorate. A social preview image in the head for sharing the URL would be helpful !

MoOx_ | karma 13 | avg karma 0.68 · | 2015-05-28 09:05:56

Good point. I will add credits for the images. Not sure if it's enough but it's a start.

hrjet | karma 1491 | avg karma 2.09 · | 2014-01-17 00:36:37

Nice start!

What would be really cool: slideshow of several images + captions.

Nice and fun. Have you considered points of interest, photos from open sources like Panoramio or Creative Commons search, links to Wikipedia articles?

Sometimes I get stumped and I also want a picture to explain it

you should take a picture for the wiki link.

Really cool. Love the lion cub photo. It'd be neat to see where each photo was taken on the map. Not sure if flickr exposes that though.

gustavotoyota | karma 9 | avg karma 0.5 · | 2023-07-23 08:51:48

I think the tooltips are lacking images Would be cool to see photos of the Quirky Museums, for example

grzm | karma 13860 | avg karma 2.67 · | 2018-03-31 02:20:28+00:00

Looks interesting. I'd love to see more screen shots. Is there a gallery somewhere? I poked around the site a bit but didn't find one. Tthough perhaps I just missed it. Been known to happen.)

achairapart | karma 2112 | avg karma 4.61 · | 2023-01-28 22:07:46

Like others, I wish there was some info about the photos like context, location or source (Wikipedia?).

Anyway, here's the complete dataset (funny way to store it):

Also, I couldn't resist and cheated a bit to see if you'ld get something special for 5000, but nothing :(

Nice. Some large hi-res photos showing the design would be awesome.

mrspeaker | karma 7967 | avg karma 7.39 · | 2015-08-03 02:14:52+00:00

This is so cool! (but I can't help but be a little disappointed that there are no image resources include - even some low-res thumbnails would be great!)
