This page allows the user to zoom in / out / around the image by pinching the screen with two-fingers. Buttons on the corners of the screen allow one to view information data for that image or to share that image with a friend by copy-and-pasting a short-form url.

The profile page contains 3 sections: 1 for new messages on the discussions page, 1 for their uploaded images, and 1 for their favorite image. Clicking the plus sign on any section will expand it to fit the page.+ The upload page has two options. One is to take a photo by accessing the phone's camera from within the application. The other is to upload an existing photo from their camera's library. There is a link below the buttons for the app's privacy policy.
- + These two screens are a continuation of the upload page. After uploading a photo, the user can crop the image by tapping the edges of the mineral with their finger to form a border. Once cropped, the user must fill in the needed information for that mineral before sharing it to be archived.
- + The screens above show the settings page and the discussions page. The settings page has your average settings for account / profile information. The discussions page is an ongoing list of forum topics and messages. You can sort through the discussion by the time each message was posted, by the most popular topics, or by threads that you have contributed to. The black / green symbol next to each post determines whether you have contributed to that thread or not.
