The funniest part is that he had to name the picture and then click a button that says "upload" in order for it to show up here. It's not totally automatic.

@C.E.Beavers: that would have shown the "More properties" under the "Additional information"-section on the right, so no. Besides, the pic was taken with the built-in camera in the iMac AFAIK.
