Good and bad news
The good news: Yesterday Panoramio appeared in some big sites and visitors came fast and furious. Hundreds of amazing pics around the world were posted; Moscow, Italy, California, London, Kizhi (Russia), etc. We added a small world map to the photo page in order to give an idea of where the picture was located. Posting pictures over Japan didn’t work, but we already fixed the problem.
The bad news: We have discovered there are still problems with Safari, Opera and Firefox. In Safari you can not post new pictures (bad bad) and in Opera you can hardly see the pictures, as a big map is over them (very bad). Firefox is showing the drop down of the search under the images. We are working in all these problems, and fixing them as fast as we can.
Bugs, comments, suggestions… please, report them to the Panoramio forum.

I added photos from Minsk, Belarus. It is not in Africa !
American postage worker don’t know where is Belarus…
Just wanted to let you know I think this site is fantastic. I hope you don’t mind that I’m uploading a bunch of my shots but this is such a great way to document the locations of many of my shots as I get asked about that quite often. Thanks for all the effort you’ve put into all of this.

Hi Jeff,
We don’t mind at all
That’s exactly the goal of this site, to have as many pictures around the world as it is possible.
Cheers,
It would be really nice if, when zoomed all the way in, you could specify the direction the camera was pointing when the photo was taken (Maybe with an arrow of some kind…) Also, when panning around the map, things can get kind of bogged down when the thumb nails are loading. It would be nice to have the option of turning the thumb nails off.

Hi Jeff,
I will try to change the way we download the thumbnails to make the browser more responsive when you pan around the map.
I will probably make a full blog entry describing my idea, if I can make it work.
Cheers,
