I appear to have won a tranche of badges for route of day pics. I’m not sure whether I’ve even had one … is there a way to check? Very exciting if you’ve all been applauding my duff photography without my knowledge but I suspect it’s an error

Serendippily I had the same and reported it by means of a comment on the Unlockable Badges thread; it was an error. Fetch has removed them again.

Beginner's question. It seems as if you can't add an image from your own Gallery to a route. You have to upload the image by a separate routine and it attaches to the route but still doesn't appear in your Gallery - is that right?

Very exciting! Especially as I uploaded yesterday's route which I'm hoping will make it to a ROTD in the future (7 or 8 weeks from now?) since it's a great route, and the photos should tick all those boxes mentioned above. Here's the second best photo of the day (which didn't get used for the route added to FE) - I reckoned that one from the top was better than this. :-)



On a side-note, on the summit, close to 3000ft up, was a memorial to a runner that headed out on these paths in Novemebr 2014, and tragically never made it back. A reminder to be prepared for what can go wrong when running on the hills, and to carry enough emergency kit :-(

300 ROTDs is exceptional! One day, in the distant future maybe...

I’m listening to what you learn when you fall, a story of a lady who goes hiking in the desert and falls breaking her pelvis and I know survived as she’s written the book but I question how! And I know in future I’ll ensure I am prepared should I go off piste in the hills. Scary.

Great photo.

On a lighter note, surely that's Rouge Beret, not Jaune Beret? ;-)
Although I have learnt a lot from Fetch & the web this afternoon

I tend to post from holiday and new routes. I'm not sure there's many around home (Whiteparish) or the northern half of the New Forest that I haven't overdone, so haven't posted any from there for some time.

Although now I know there's another badge, I may restart

(I don't see Sailor Steve in any of the high score badges - maybe a recount needed?)
