*Selecting category Passenger still gives cargo aircraft photo results
*No possibility to search for part of a registration in the Reg field (e.g. searching for “PH-B” gives no results while there are lots of aircraft regs starting with these characters)
*No possibility to search only a particular month (you have to select a year before you can select a month)

*View search details results as one column (in stead of two)
*Improvement of the EXIF data (e.g. change “FocalLength: 3000/10” into “Focal Length: 300 mm”)

*Move photos within an album
*Delete photos from an album

*Many double entries regarding airlines and airports (often with a very small difference) that should be deleted/corrected.

*On the upload page, have the photo date field automatically filled out by extracting the EXIF data (but still editable by the uploader)
*Photo/photographer statistics are mostly missing

Hi and welcome to the site! That depends on whether you mean screening or the queue. I assume you mean the queue in which case it will take 4-5 days for your images to be screened.

AviatorKid wrote:OK thanks. Is there any way to get photos screened faster. I know there are a lot of users uploading photos, but I have a few hundred that I would like to upload and only having two in screening at a time taking 4-5 days will take me about a year to get them all up.
