I'll like most of the new features. I wish they would correct that wallpaper issue I'm having with my iPad, though. It's zooming in too much without really wanting to let me adjust it.

the photo must be low quality or you don't like the fact that the photo covers the entire screen?

If they did correct that.. it wouldn't be worthy to announce at their Conference

I like my photos to cover the screen, but I also like to see the full picture. Like if I have one of a cat or something in some setting it'll zoom in so much I only see the cat's face and not the entirety of the picture. That's annoying.

They announced the rest of the photo features :umm:

The photo is too large... There's something wrong with the photo... can you send it to me? i want to try

Because it's not a feature people want to hear about, as it is a user error :unsure:-_-

It isn't when I've gone through the trouble of editing it on both the iPad and my computer. :umm: Plus, there are a host of articles trying to help people out with this so it isn't just me or a handful of people.
