OUTSTANDING

 

This for all the POI Factory Noobs.

Check out "My Favorite Files" in the bullet list under your name in the column to the right...

I just "discovered" that not only are the specific files you download tracked for you here...

Making it easy to find them again...

The site even annotates your list if the file has been updated since your last download.

The Tools here rock.

It's either the exception or... noticing that POI Files and Red Light Cameras are in separate tabs, it may be that way by design.

Active status needed for redlight file download

My guess is that these files do not appear in My Favorite Files because it would be difficult to show/not-show them as applicable when the person’s status changes back and forth.

Recently Added

I'm pretty sure the feature was added to the site just recently. Jon posted the new feature (don't hold me to this) a couple of months ago.

Cheers

Miss POI

So not a bug. A feature. grin

Thanx for confirming the hunch. (I used to do computer design for a living. I figured it was a separate service.)
