    1. Yes, as I realized can only upload one picture in each Spotting but some animals needs more than 1 picture to hi-light their special features :) Posted 9 years ago
      1. You can upload as many photos of a single species as you like, as long as they are not exact duplicates. So don't hold back :) Posted 9 years ago
        1. Will do, but sometimes, I get 'very slow' internet connection over here :(
          Can be challenging to upload hi-resolution pictures, sometimes it takes more than 5 minutes to upload one picture :(
