Hi Max, Unless it is a new option that I have missed, since the early v5 XCsoar lost the ability to display images.
If we could put our own photos it would be great.

They are copyrighted, and I don't see any licensing conditions that would allow us to use them. Which means it's illegal. Since streckenflug.at is a commercial site that wants to sell SeeYou licenses (and therefore refuses to publish XCSoar release announcements in its news section), I doubt they would allow XCSoar to use them, but it's up to you to ask for it. XCSoar has support for displaying photos, but until there is a free photo database, every pilot must assemble his own set of photos.
