Enhancements:

Transparent Dark Shadow/Overlay for Improved Readability: The current white text on album cover pictures can be hard to read depending on the image background. Adding a transparent dark shadow/overlay behind the text will enhance the readability of the text, ensuring that it remains legible against various image backgrounds.

Display Picture Count under Event Date: To provide users with more context about each album, we should display the count of pictures within each album beneath the event date. This will give users a quick idea of the volume of pictures in each album.

Address Missing Most Recent Events: Investigate and resolve the issue causing the most recent events to be missing from the page. This is crucial for presenting a comprehensive history of our past events to users.

Regarding the issue, I have added the shadow overlay and picture count. This is how it is looking rn.

The text is still not visible very clearly. Should i change the shadow color to yellow maybe?

Regarding the missing most recent events, the events are being displayed as per the data fetched from the meetup api. So i think the issue might be in the backend or on the meetup's side.

Let me see if I can get input from Shirley and Nicole on this

I was able to display the latest events by modifying GroupPastEventsFragment to show the first 100 events instead of the last 100.
