So, what am I getting into the next DMG update? Quite a lot, actually. Most of it related to maps and pictures.

New headshot for RSS feeds!

I've been using the same goofy "had hair day" phonecam pic for years, and it's lost its charm. I'm switching to a shot from my camping trip that all my friends seem to like. Woo.

Geotagged Images!

Images from my hikes and bike rides will now be matched up with the GPS data for the trip and automagically plotted on my GPS maps. Click on the icon, get the postacard-size pic!

More map info!

I've long wanted to include more information about routes, and now I can. It'll now include total climbing (vertical feet), climbing distance (miles), max/min/average grade upphill and downhill, and probably some more stuff I haven't thought of yet.

Better map pages!

I'm reformatting the map pages so I can enable scroll-wheel zooming, include geotagged images, and properly center the map over the route.

Images linked to maps!

Pictures that have been geotagged will now feature a link to the map they're on. So the link runs both ways: you can get all images for a given map, and also find the map for a given image.

I've also incorporated a few layout touch-ups that aren't really worth mentioning, except in aggregate. A few small changes that add up to greater readability and consistency.
