This version is NOT yet tested on devices with 8 megapixel cameras. If errors occur try using a smaller image size, eg 2592x1944.
This version may display text in the Imageotag photos that is too small to be easily read when images size of less than 1024x768 is selected.
This and other issues, such as support for devices with no trackball and d-pad will be addressed in the next release.

Know Issues / Bugs
1. Version 1.0: Only tested on T-Mobile G1 with V1.6, HTC Hero with V.15 and Nexus One with V2.2, other devices unknown. This means that imageotag has been tested on devices with 3.2 and 5 megapixel cameras only, it has not been tested with devices with 8 megapixels or greater such as Sony X10 and HTC Evo. If errors occur with 8 megapixel cameras try using the medium or small size images sizes available in the Camera Settings activity.

2. Force close errors occur when SD card becomes full. Imageotag is unable to take photos until space is available on the SD card. Move and delete old files to free space on the SD card. Warning messages are displayed by imageotag when the SD card is 97% full or greater.

3. Contact Sheet image thumbnails can be unreliable sometimes showing blank thumbnails. To fix press rebuild menu option to remake the contact sheets.

4. Non Sequence Image Tours made from the Photos Image View menu are experimental only and may not work correctly as Google Earth Tours, being of limited use to view individual images in Google Earth and as a (zip compatible kmz format) backup of the all of the non sequence photos.
(Google Earth Tours made from the Image Sequence View menu do work ok in Google Earth. See the tutorial for further details).

5. GPS speed in shown in metric units as meters per second and kilometers per hour only, imperial units as miles per hour is not yet supported.

6. With a recent update of Google Earth to Version 6.0, I have noticed that some Imageotag images are shown upside down in Google Earth (!) I have raised a support request with Google to fix this issue (this was not happening with previous version of Google Earth). Imageotag Version 1.0.7 now provides a new Google Earth Setting - PhotoOverlay Roll (deg) set to 0 force all sequence photos to horizontal and right side up.
