Flickr to Ipernity ... a good thing out of a bad

[gb hill]

I opened up an account on Flickr and have made you rebels contacts. Have exactly 1 image up at the moment. I don't see myself "moving there" soon as I'm going to give Flickr a chance to make some "corrections" after this firestorm. They have done some good things as well recently, see their iPhone app for an example, so I'm cutting them a little slack.

I'm in the web business and I know what it's like to have a controversial release. Let's hope they react and modify to our (my) liking 🙂

Anyway, iPernity isn't bad, just awfully small in scale right now from a user perspective.

You mean Ipernity? 🙂

OK, you asked for a Group, we have a Group!

Rangefinderforum on Ipernity.

Join when you have a chance. Still tinkering with some settings!

Just an update on my Ipernity experience to date.

I joined Ipernity about a week ago, and currently have 597 members on my contacts list; (up from 365 just 48 hours ago) I'm not buying the argument that Ipernity is "too small". That's 4X the number of contacts that I had on Flickr after seven years. And my photographs have received more views in the past week than my Flickr account saw in the past couple of months. I happily closed my Flickr account yesterday, as I'm having WAY more fun on the other side!

I have included a link to the front page of my Ipernity, for those who may be interested in seeing how it compares aesthetically to Flickr.

Yes ... this has been my experience so far ... I've always been a bit of an online recluse and I'm getting more traffic too ...

... and it has a much higher proportion of photographers than flicker

Been too busy to spend much, if any, time with it. I like the "writing" component. Still not really sure which direction to go with my account.

 

[Sparrow]

I just checked and in the short time I've been there my photos have had 544 views, which for me is really good ... I'm a bit recuse on those places, too much British reserve

Any way apart from a few glitches at first when they were getting a lot of new clients it's all going very well.

... oh, and they keep one informed of what's going on LINK

I am liking what I'm seeing so far with Ipernity. Its so refreshing not to have to fool with that cumbersome scroll!
