Rick, I have full confidence in your ability to fix this problem, which as you say afflicts only a few of us. I appreciate your taking your valuable time to remedy this minor glitch in PU’s admirable system.

A few months ago a fellow PU member put my exif data through his reader, and ALL the data registered perfectly. We concluded problem is at PU. I hope Rick can track down the issue I'm having. It is certainly consistent with each and every photo, however processed. (I rarely send in layered photos, and save all of them by exporting from LR 6 as jpegs to my desktop, whence I upload to PU. I have checked my Export dialogue box, and all is in order there.

As I detailed in an email to Rick just now, I turned off my copyright info and submitted a photo to the gallery. No dice. Still missing make and model info, and of course, missing lens info as well. I remain convinced my Exif data arrive at PU perfectly in order.

Thanks for your comments Rick. I appreciate it that you are dedicated to fixing things. I will send you what you ask for tomorrow, but for now let me say that I use Lightroom 6, and when I export my raw files to my desktop as jpegs, prior to uploading them to PU, my Apple PREVIEW Ap shows a ton of data--it gets all the EXIF data spot on (though camera make and model are shown in a panel called "TIFF"), colour model, DPI and Pixel height and width, white balance, scene capture type, copyright info, etc. In Lightroom, all the EXIF data are present in full. You say if I'd like "to PM" -- what does this mean? And how do I get you my file straight out of the camera? Thanks Rick.

No one is getting their lens included in their EXIF data. For months I have had only partial camera make and model data included. Now I am getting absolutely nothing in lens, camera make, camera model, when I know for a certainty that the information is right there in my image when I upload. I cannot understand why it is so darn difficult to get these problems straightened out. How difficult can it be.

Understand how these things work. Thanks for your diligence John.

Looks like PU has again failed to show my camera make and model in the EXIF data. John, when you find time, can you see if you can get this working again please? Go4IT

Thanks for your (usual) quick response John.

I was distressed today (Wednesday) to see two weird commercial postings in the comments associated with two of my recent Gallery postings : “Untitled” and “Overhead Theatre”. Can the webmaster please take a look at them and report back to the group? It looks like we have been hacked. Go4IT.

Exactly. It doesn't make any sense to make up a movie title. How would the judge know if the image is appropriate when there is no movie in his mind for him to consider? It will be hard enough for the judge if he is not familiar with an actual movie. Which is why I questioned the brief. BTW, my entry is in already.
