Good Morning,
If you take a look at the Google Maps/Photos page I have, you will notice that the thumbnails on the right have question marks, and not all of the photos that I have marked for the map appear on the map. I doubles checked the data and it looks right...
http://andrewlgillies.smugmug.com/gallery/1446915/3/239421456#239421456
Is marked for Mesa AZ but doesn't appear there

http://andrewlgillies.smugmug.com/gallery/1446915/4/237942882#237942882
Is marked for Sao Paulo, Brasil but doesn't appear there

Any ideas why the thumbnails aren't working correctly, why certain photos don't appear and are there little tricks and tweaks for the mapping feature?

Thanks!
Andrew

    OK, a little more info...

    If I go to my search page (http://andrewlgillies.smugmug.com/find) and click on the map, not all of the photos appear on the map, however, if I enter this URL (http://maps.smugmug.com/?feedType=geoAlbum&Data=1446915), pointing to the specific gallery with the photos in it, the photos appear on the map, but the thumbnails still don't appear on the right side. (I have all of the geotagged photos in one gallery). Does this help at all?

    Thanks
    Andrew

    Hi Andrew,

    We're aware of the problem that the thumbs on the right are not showing up. Our engineers are working on fixing this problem and I hope that the fix will be out soon.

    It is by design on the other hand, that you don't get all tagged photos since we have to limit is due to performance and usablitly reasons.

    I apologize for the inconvenience.

    I hope that helps,
    Sebastian

    Hey Sebastian, I appreciate the information.

    Definitely not an inconvenience, I love this feature but I wasn't sure if I was doing something wrong!
    Maybe you have a suggestion for a project that I am working on. I am going to upload around three hundred photos, maybe more (not full size) from around the world and would like to have them appear on a google map, or something to that effect. Should I use my pro smugmug account or do you know of a better system? Not that smugmug isn't the best :-) !
    The Map would be viewed by multiple people.

    Thanks!
    Andrew
