I am concerned about the new "Upload a picture" form. On Woophy 1.0 I had to enter the country where the picture was taken and the city* where it was taken. The new form has fields for "the country where the picture was taken" and "the city you live in". I strongly object to this. The idea used to be that pictures appear on the map where they were taken, not where their photographer lives. I think it should be kept that way. If I click on Paris, I want to see pictures of Paris, not pictures of the Grand Canyon and the Taj Mahal taken by people who live in Paris. Please, please, could this be changed to the original query? Otherwise I think I will remove all the pictures from Woophy that weren't taken in the city I live in.
*By the way, I think "city" is the wrong term (has always been). Not all places are cities. I think "place would be a better term. Any native speaker who can confirm this?

Hello friends.
Why some names of the cities of my state, do not appear in the list?
Example:
- City of São Gabriel.
- City of Caçapava do Sul.
Great hug !!!

Hi, Darlan!
I've just discovered that for you! It seems woophy2.0 doesn't accept the "cedilha" (ç), so you must write Cacapava do Sul, instead. On the other hand it doesn't accept the " ã " either! So please write Sao Gabriel, instead! It works like that!!! In portuguese city names I also had a problem at first with " Gerês " and discovered that here, at woophy, it shall be written "Gerez "  ! If Joris reads this by chance, I'd like to ask you, if you please, if is there any chance to correct that portuguese spelling to Gerês, as it is our most well known natural reserve and, those who look for it, will try, correctly, Gerês and not Gerez! Thanks for it!
So, Darlan, in your turn, remember that no Ç nor ã, at least by now, at Woophy2.
Greets,
Miguel

Thanks for it, Joris (and if you remember changing "gerês" to this correct spelling, thanks for that too)!
