A few small fixes just landed in 5.0.1. Still ironing out some things from the Liquid Glass update, but it feels good to get this one out the door.

If it's going to be a more regular occurrence, we might as well photograph it.
This month’s category is Extreme Weather — thunder, lightning, wind, snow, dust, drama. If the sky looked wild and your camera was ready, we want to see it.
