when they say full circle do they really mean it in a three.sixty.degree fashion ? because I don't see the second huge dune

Yes, it's a 360º panorama, I tried to make one but, for some reason, the program I use doesn't want to include 3 of the photos in the panorama.

It probably got bored with your GIFs.

Because that's not a link to an image.

why did they change it ?

You have to ask them.

Is this the image you wanted to post?

these gifs wont display themselves

And that's bad?

That's because this panorama was not taken with the camera on the robot arm (MAHLI), it was taken with left mast camera.
