Hi,
a few words to this site update.
As the geocaching.com servers are not the fastes one ;-) why did you put the user pictures into the logs?
Then you talk about the smartphone apps. This kind of geocache-equip need small and fast websites (with less graphics on it)!
But a reason to go back to last backup is that: Everybody can see the Avatar Pictues that stand byside the logs! Last week you need to log in to get any information about a user. Today, you get his picture without sign in.
And it's no problem to for google-search to make a face-detection over all the pictures.
This only to think about.
Kind regards
