hi , I have another Problem :) , my best panos ( mostly newest panos
and almost all of my Editors picks ) are not seen in GE unless you
zoom exactly in that place , maybe more than 500 meter . but my old
panos wich some even was taken by Compact camera are shown better and
can be seen without zoom .
I can Understand why you force people to see lower Quality and old
panos ?
why in crowded places which there are more than 1 panos available ,
the oldest one has most chance to be seen , but recent panos have to
be hidden ,
