geotagging photos

I noticed that location data isn't available in a photo's EXIF info. I know that it needs to be encoded to the file before uploading, and I do so for all my images. Then when uploading there was an option to display it or not. What am I missing?

I have the option to display a map, a google map, but it also includes some serious hoop jumping and constant updating api and developer tools. I just dont care to do all that extra work, its a pain in the ass and frankly does everyone on vfrd want that feature? Its a bit intrusive showing map coordinates where photos are taken, I want to maintain some privacy for people not aware they have geo data attached to thier phone or camera.  I do not want to share member data with google to be honest. I give people the option to log in with google or facebook but thats up to the user, this is completely different it allows google to search the database...nope.

Thanks, Miguel, it never occurred to me that map data would be so troublesome. You work hard enough on VFRD so don't give it another thought.
