Is there a way that you can code it so that when you post a new picture it automatically strips out any location data encoded in there? On most smartphones (iPhone, Android, and I think even Blackberries/Windows Phone 7) by default when you take a picture it adds GPS coordinates to your photo. Now while this is nice for your family vacation photos in London, it is not so advisable when detecting a previously unknown civil war camp or a possible cache location. So would there be a way that when you add the image to Treasurenet's servers it goes through and takes out that data so no one can see where you took the picture? And also, is there a way that large images can be automatically resized to a sane default, such as when an image is greater than X by Y pixels it automatically resizes it to W by Z pixels?
