Thanks Eduardo, but did you mean April 5th or May 5th as cut off for reviewed photos?
Thats great, “selamat” Google Earth!!
April 7 to May 25 is about seven weeks.
Why such a long gap between updates?
Tony
You are right, I meant May 5th, now it is corrected.
Jan 25th - Uploaded 2,000,000 shots
Mar 14th - Uploaded 600,000 shots
Apr 7th - uploaded 300,000 shots
I think I see a trend forming here…
;-)
Sorry to appear a bit dim , but did the update take place on the 5th May ?
Galatas,
The Google Earth Upload is due May 25th.
This will include photos reviewed and accepted for GE up to May 5th.
=)
Thanks Tony.
It was Eduardo’s reply to your post on APR 18th (above) that got me confused.
I meant to add ……
Pity Eduardo didn’t explain the reason for such long gap between uploads.
I think seven weeks is excessive and may lead to some users losing interest. I’m normally a very patient chap , but even I find such a long delay , added to the long review times , extremely frustrating and annoying.
