Ok so previously I was getting the 14ers pics as the big background *behind* the 360 pano. 2-for-1. After your suggested change, big the 14ers pics are back, but the pano is gone. Incidentally, I hadn't changed any of those settings before. It was some months ago after a change that I started getting them both (see the "home page guessing game" thread in forum).

Not a big deal either way really.

Not sure how you got to "360 Summit Panos" but you are one of about 3200 people (out of 75000) that have the home page set to that option.

As far as both, due to the resources required to display both, I had to remove the large background photo when displaying a pano. The files are just too large to load all of them every time. Sorry

No problem, makes total sense. Think I'll opt for the 14ers pics and continue playing the guessing game. Thanks for everything, Bill!

Thanks for the fixes, Bill (although that means I can’t say DYBM today). :)

I'm sure someone else will!

I applied one more major (non-forum) software update today.

Please post in this thread if you have any problems, especially when adding/updating reports or condition reports.

Using chrome on a windows laptop.
I also like to guess at some of the photos on the home page.

Sometimes, however, when I scroll down, it only ID's it generally, like "Photo taken along the West Slopes" or "Photo taken on the way to the summit" but it doesn't ID the actual peak. Am I missing something?

But thanks again for all you do, Bill! You're the greatest!
