I was wondering if there is a way to auto-show a photo's metadata.  It's nice to see the camera/lens used and the photo data displayed. 

I also would like a larger display post area but I understand your trying to keep everything looking the same as Photography Life. 

Thanks,

Mark Casebeer

@Casey1823, thank you for the feedback!

Unfortunately, the forum back-end system is completely different from our site and it does not yet have the intelligence to parse through image metadata to extract it and attach to images. I will see if there is a workable solution in the future, but as of right now, it is not possible.

When you click on images, they should open full-screen though. If you are referring to the width of the forum itself, we cannot change that sadly, since the website has a strict width layout. I experimented with variable width design, and it messes up a lot of our content.

@megaz thanks for the reply. I know you want to keep the structure of your site. I can live with that. It's just nice if the images show the metadata.

@casey1823 Agreed! Once the functionality becomes available, we will definitely implement it. In the meantime, as I have free time, I will explore some ways to perhaps manually code it. It will depend on how much effort that will take.
