the carpet crawler (we've got to get in to get out)
ipernity version
alternative title: neither.in.nor.out
original version on www.taonarts.com (part of the front gif) or (single): www.taonarts.com/nudes-2
so, dear friends, contacts and visitors, the overtake of iper by ima comes closer, means: a lot of things will change... a lot of things have changed already, many members have left the platform and searched/found a new home in other communities. others reduced their activities or stopped them completely and some last survivors are still here and try to keep the platform alive by their tireless activities. my biggest respect for the people from ima ! to have cr as a negotiation partner invites more to run away than to continue, i guess... and to spend so much time and energy for this project is no matter of course!
but when the overtake is realized, only the first part of all is done, nobody can say whether iper in its new form will be able to survive. i said it here, i said it there: without free accounts i don't see any chance for iper to attract enough people who are motivated to become paying members. i'm afraid that iper will turn into a community of people with an income of western standard only, others will see the fees and have a look for cheaper options. i have my doubts that this is the way to get enough club members to let the platform survive. how many crowdfundings will be necessary ? how many members will donate next time ? and overnext ? to base all hopes on a closure of flickr and that the members from there will be the rescue for ipernity – how realistic is that ?
i'm on this platform since more than 9 years, i began my artistical carreer here and i'll be sad if ima will close my account, because i won't pay 50 usd/year and don't want to be a member of an elitist community, but obviously this will be the way of the new iper.
if all continues as proclaimed, iper will have one artist less... not everyone will be sad about that, for all others who want see my works also in the future: www.taonarts.com , you're invited to have a look and/or leave a comment ! ;-) if you want to tell me some words more - my mail adress you find on the right side of my frontpage there...
whether i'll be active again on other communities i haven't decided yet, at least i have accounts on flickr, fotocommunity, hq23 and 500px., but at the moment they're sleeping... and maybe there's still a chance that iper will offer a cheaper membership than 50 usd/year... ;-)
we'll see...

have fun, be creative, take care !
