6 million photos in the database!

[Cta Spotter]

Congratulations to all of the photographers who made this possible, and the entire team of screeners and administrators behind it! Without any of these two components this wouldn't have been possible.

I'd like to think one of the 6 I had screened in the last couple hours was the magical 6 millionth photo

[TRTPUwU]

6 million, congrats to the crew and screeners, it is only thanks to them that this is possible, i still cannot belive that the database reached 6 million. And thanks to all the photographers/aviation enthusiasts for making this moment possible with their photos

Only a short matter of time before the logo updates to

J e t p h o t o s
6+ million | All screened

Well, it is time for the jetphotos logo to change from 5million+ , all screened to 6million+

again, thanks to the great screeners and crew who spend their time helping the platform grow, and thanks to the photographers who made it possible
It is quite remarkable, how such large group of people united to create this. And how a group of screeners, crew and administrators make it a fair and fun thing to do.

Let me add

Stephen Stein
and
Sean Brink

Both have been great additions from the US, helping us a lot reducing the European night gap in screening numbers, thanks guys !

and also a lot of people who are not in the crew anymore but have been a big part of JP history, with a special thought to Gerardo and Brian

[LH-B744]

Let me add that Stefan Kuhn is very probably the one and only jetphotos member who has more knowledge about our home airport than me. We btw share the same home airport.

And after all those years, I'm a little bit proud of that. The Gold Medal for Kuhn's 20 years here on this platform .

And if you ask me, I'll start the next 15 years here at jetphotos. And greetings to my young friend, Alex.

PS: Gerardo and Brian. Yes. Alex, how long must a jetphotos member be a jetphotos member to still know these two good guys. I'd say, 15 years?

[LH-B744]

And B773ER Flight Captain Les Abend.

No Abend is a good Abend until Captain Abend makes it a good Abend. Really the good old jetphotos times...

34 years for one and the same airline...

[LH-B744]

And Vishal Jolapara, most of the time only called VJ.

PS: Ask me names, I don't know where from I inherited this human brain space for names. And for pictures. Chhatrapati Shivaji, by night...

Well, I may have found the 6 millionth photo : https://www.jetphotos.com/photo/11250174
As much as i know the counter is updated every hour, just like https://www.jetphotos.com/new
by removing the "extra" 26 thousand from the ID of the most recent photo shown, i got that one.
I want to precise that, being unable to see the IDs of eventual deleted photos, it may be wrong, but, this photo should be the nearest estimate.
Another thing I've noted is that either the counter on the main page or the counter on the https://www.jetphotos.com/new page is "out of tune", because the https://www.jetphotos.com/new counter shows 5870631 photos, while the main page counter shows 6026175. As such it is possible that the database hasn't still reached 6 million. I leave to the admins the chance to tell me the reality. Cheers!

The answer is very simple:
Front page counter shows total of ALL ACCEPTED photos in the database. However - there are tons of deleted photos which are no longer visible. Imagine that sometimes we delete accounts with hundreds/thousands photos accepted, or just removing photos accepted by mistake.
Users also are able to remove their photos anytime, so finding the exact 6th million image is almost impossible.
