One question, though. I've noticed that clicking on previous images on Bing's US page shows images that haven't been included in your archive. It seems as though they are posting more than 1 new image per day on their homepage (maybe because of these Winter Olympics). Is there a way for you to include these other images also? Also, is there an easy way to copy the picture description given when clicking the copyright logo for those images which aren't included on your site. For example, clicking on previous images today (2/25/2010), there is this picture (http://www.bing.com/hpk2/Inukshuk_EN-US1164591538.jpg) which you don't have. How do you retrieve this info when posting the images on your site? Do you simply manually type in the info or is there some other method you use? I've even looked at the the source code for that page, but Bing only lists the image on the first page (and even looking at that, I don't know where the info for the copyright would be found). If you or anyone reading this has an answer it would be greatly appreciated. Great job on the Bing Image Archive! One question, though.

A filter of some sort would be useful for the duplicate images in Bing (especially if this filter was for the U.S., since the captions are the clearest. I also agree with Bas and Matt.

When using your RSS feed for a desktop slideshow on Windows 7 I get a lot of duplicate images since all countries are included in the RSS.
