We are delighted that our tribute to Sachin has struck a chord." Fans present in the stadium can visit picture.Starsports.Com and search for themselves within the photographs, zoom into the photo and tag themselves on it after logging in via their Facebook account.They can also share their tagged picture, a truly historic moment, with their friends and family on Facebook. The site also allows the fan to search for and tag their Facebook friends in any of the photos. For those who couldn't make it to the stadium in person can use the "Wish you were here" feature on the site and tag themselves in any of the photos.
