The "improved" actor Photos section is buggy and has incomplete information.
First, I want to reiterate what others have already said elsewhere - The "new" layout of the actor Photos section is not an improvement over the old design. The old layout, where we would get pages of pictures in a grid layout was much easier to scan through on actors with many pictures if I was looking for something more specific than just "next, next, next, ...". Scrolling through hundreds of pictures is annoying. OK, now to the subject...
When scrolling through photos, I will often stop to click on one and then hit the "Back" button to continue. But that Back function often doesn't take me back to where I left off. Sometimes it goes back up the scroll and sometimes it jumps ahead. It seems random.
As for incomplete information, with the old layout, hovering my mouse over a picture brought up a line of text showing the actor, the show the photo was taken from, and the year. The new layout gives nothing.
When you click on a photo, it does show the above info, but some of it is incomplete. I saw one today that just said "Episode 15", but not the actual show it was from. I don't think the previous layout gave the episode of a show, but at least you got the show, which is more important anyway.
It seems the beta test for this layout wasn't super thorough.
