Nice photos, can caption titles be changed?
Excellent photos. A minor editorial suggestion: Currently, the Latin name is listed twice in the caption because the Latin name is added automatically. Likewise, the location will be listed there too, right beneath the title. You might want to change the title in the caption to something like "Horned Passalus--freshly emerged" or "Bess Beetle", etc., whatever descriptive title you like.

Again, that is simply a minor editorial suggestion and not meant as criticism of your outstanding photographs.

Patrick, all input is appreciated. Is there a way I can keep my file names from appearing?

File names hidden to other users
That's a very spiffy feature that BugGuide founder Troy Bartlett implemented. When you log in, you can see file names for your photos, but no other users ever can. Likewise, you cannot see other's file names. Now the site administrators, Troy and John VanDyk, presumably can see the names, but they have access to everything.

That's the way I understand it at least. Browse through the site without logging in, I think you will not be able to see anyone's file names.
