I *think* that's how your own user homepage looks when you haven't  
uploaded any images, just click on the "OpenStreetView" on the top  
left to hit the real homepage (yes, this should be renamed).

rasher on IRC suggested this too so I'll probably go with it when I  
get time to do it, here's the mock-up he suggested, feel free to add

Often it's a good idea to take a photo of your GPS so that you can  
accurately geotag your photos. It means that even if your camera time  
and your GPS time are out by a few seconds you can fix this by typing  
in the time shown in the photo. Actually this would probably be useful  
whether we're doing server-side geotagging or not.
