Hi Christina,
Sorry for the delay - I've been out and about.
I believe the problem here is that we have a limit on the number of characters that can be in a description. I tried to paste your text in and the same thing happened - it didn't update. I then shortened your text slightly, and it worked.
So - you've helped us identify an error.
We will
1) Make sure there is a message telling you the Description is too long.
2) Allow you to edit it, rather than make you lose what you've typed.
3) Display a 'characters remaining'
On the web site, as soon as possible.

With regards to the #thirsty tag.We owe you a blog post on this - and other new features. We're holding off until the new iPhone app version is approved.

Events tags are a simple way that anyone can create a collection of checkins - just like twitter tags; except that you need to set them up first, on the event page. Anyone can create a new Tag - for whatever reason. To contribute to an event, just include the hashtag in your checkin description. So, Thirsty is a tag we use for checkins by lovers of great local drinks - http://app.lovefre.sh/events/thirsty.

One of the benefits of Events Tags is that anyone can copy the embed code for them, and embed them on their Blog - we are introducing a more extensive 'widget' to allow people to create custom maps too.

With regards to your photo - that's a mystery. All I can suggest is that next time you're they're you check in again with a photo. We would encourage people to check in whenever they visist a place - and changes in the way checkins are displayed are coming soon, to aggregate these to give people a better idea of how much 'love' there is for a producer or place :)

Hope this helps - let me know. Meanwhile - thanks for the kind words. We've only just begun and are working hard to make the app a little more social and functional.

All the best,
Mark
