[QUOTE="Mini99, post: 475424, member: 8198"] Sorry if this is going over old ground, but just a want to put this out there again about the dangers of posting pictures online. I copied a picture off of this Forum (I am using an IPad, as I wanted to see the picture in greater detail – My poor old eyes!) and then saved it to my picture library, once there I noticed that the picture had been geo tagged. From this I could see where the picture had been taken, now I have no intention of coming round and stealing all you stuff, but there are some out there that would. :evil: The best policy that I have found when taking pictures that you don’t want anyone to know where it was taken is to select “Settings” then “Privacy settings” and then turn off “Location Services” (This is works for Apple, I can’t help with Android, sorry) and then there will be no location data stored with the picture. Once you have taken pictures, you can then reverse the above process and then re enable the "Location Services". The last thing I want to do is to scare everyone into stopping posting pictures, but this simple step could save us all a lot of heart ache! [/QUOTE]
