It's been about a month since I publicly introduced XPLPic(https://xplpic.com) so it's about time to get an update on what's going on with the site and what changes have come in the last month(and some sneak peaks on what's to come!

New Features

Added Tags

You can now add # to add tags to your posts and look them up right by that. Try looking up #chicagoart (and if you are in Chicago, take pics of art around the city and use that tag!).

Added Image Count To Bubbles

If you uploaded multiple images to the same trip, there's a nice little plus to show how many other images there are for others to view!

Improvements

Better Search

You can now search for a person by their username! If you lookup acidyo@acidyo, you now see the profile and the pictures that he's uploaded(he may need to upload more, 1 pic is too little).

Better Map Sharing

If you copy the url at any point that you are in the map, it'll load it right back exactly there. Want to share a specific country with a friend? Just zoom in and copy the url in the bar and share it.

Better Mobile Views

Thanks livinguktaiwan@livinguktaiwan for reporting this one, the mobile view is now better and doesn't eat up as much of the available space.

Fix Date Parsing

If your picture had a date with a year that doesn't make sense(ex year 4 and year 99) it previously silently skipped it. Now it processes them and just skips the date as probably not real.

Coming Soon

These are all in the works and no timeline is guaranteed for when they will be released(if ever).

Recommendations

Working on a way to recommend other pics when you are viewing stuff. I haven't liked the ways to deal with this now so it's a ways out.

Push Notifications

Get a notification right to your phone when you get a reply. Need to register for services to do this, but there is a plan for this!

What Do You Want?

What features do you want? Let me know and I can definitely look into it! Hope the site has been treating you guys well and looking forward to seeing what we build on it! Try out the site if you haven't already, https://xplpic.com !
