comparing expono to ipernity

A few days ago i got an invite to expono - which looks like just another photo-sharing site at first sight. It has a few features ipernity doesn't, but it's not always a question of features.

Here are some screenshots (ipernity) - also you can view them here (expono).

What i like about it (that ipernity is missing):

• getsatisfaction.com support
• twitter and facebook integration
• clean website design, look and feel
• nice javascript slideshow with keyboard navigation
• album & picture sharing with passwords for non-members
• the credit idea & rating pictures
• find duplicates
• photo stack
• inbox look and feel / distinction of system and real messages
• viewers can filter and sort pictures instantly
• the activity dashboard
• see featurelist for details

What i don't like or miss about it:

• not enough space: only 1GB of free space
• too expensive: pro accounts are 45$ with 10GB a year, at ipernity you can get 10GB a month for 24€ a year, i think even flickr is cheaper
• feature and icon-overload for people that are not used to it
• quite new, so the community is missing

Actually i feel home at ipernity and i do not want to "move" again, even though i could use some of exponos features. Some of them are on my personal wishlist for ipernity for some time now.

my profiles:

• ipernity (used daily)
• expono (not sure if i will use it yet)
• flickr (no new uploads since 2007)
