3. An OpenStreetView map is now centered around a selectable waypoint
4. The zoom level of an OpenStreetView map is lowered for smaller devices.

In version 2.8.0 the next item is changed:

With version 3 of the Plain skin, the lightbox can be opened by clicking the thumbnail, without the use of an include file, see  this sample album.

In version 2.9.0 the next items are changed:

All track js-files starting with the tekst 'track' are now automatically displayed in an OpenStreetMap made with program MakeMap.

The used track js-files should now contain the track color, program ConvertTrack version 2.1 adds the selected track color to the js-file. Track js-files made with earlier versions can no longer be used, so the corresponding gpx files should again be converted by the newest ConvertTrack program.

If the selected album did contain just one slide with a GPS location, there was a problem which has been repaired in this version.
