    Please don't forget to set the location on your photos. You don't have to geotag if you don't want to, but at a minimum can you please set the country (see the "Set country" button). Here's an overview of your photos which do not have a location:

      Okay, WildFlower had mentioned something somewhere about not needing to tag them all, but I will look into it.
      Actually this is somewhat of a special case as it concerns a breeding project where I collected 2nd instar nymphs and this was the resulting imago, so strictly speaking it has a bogus location, being my home. But I'll tag it to the location of the collecting site for the nymphs.       Posted 8 years ago

      Tried to interlink the images from this series in the description.
      Is there currently a better way to this, or to render the thumbs more compactly without line breaks?       Posted 8 years ago

          Okay, would you prefer for me to not do stuff like this (linking images in a series this way) ? Posted 8 years ago

            Why not? It's a great thing and I'm happy that you do it, that why we have the feature.
            My "no" was referring to your question regarding line breaks.             Posted 8 years ago

              Yes I got that - I was just wondering if you would think this sort of thing to be "defacing" the page or some such. If it's not a problem I'll keep on doing it where applicable :o) Posted 8 years ago

                Not defacing at all, I think it's beautiful and adds value :) Posted 8 years ago
