Dear members and friends of ipernity, 1. Website update: Improved album listing when uploading Until now, if you wanted to put a photo into one of your albums, it was often difficult to find this. This was because your albums were previously displayed based on the order in which they were created, with the most recent albums on top (see the following illustration, left-hand). In addition, the list was limited to fifty albums. This limit was expandable, but it was cumbersome. The di…

Liebe Freunde, Seit Tagen schon kreist mir ein Gedanke im Kopf herum und ich habe vorgestern bei einem Gespräch mit einem Freund aus dieser Community erfahren, dass es ihm genauso geht. Der Tod von Marie-claire war ein Schock für uns...obwohl wir wussten, sie ist krank, kam diese Nachricht doch zumindest für mich plötzlich, und sie hat mich getroffen. Sie war eine der ersten, die hier Kontakt mit mir aufgenommen hat..sie hat ihre Gruppen immer vorbildlich geführt und sie war eigentlich imm…

......and I bet you didn't even know I had gone. Don't worry - I'm not offended. I first came to Ipernity in 2017, I was one of those people who gravitated here in early 2017 having previously been loyal Flickr users, but who had become royally pissed-off with the way Flickr was treating its customers. I left in August 2019 because I was a bit busy with other stuff and didn't have time to devote to it. But then COVID came, and lockdown, and the world went crazy. And now, slowly but surely,…

On January 12, 2022, Mozilla released the updated version 96.0 of the Firefox browser . This causes a log-in error with ipernity . But obviously this is not only an ipernity problem: www.ghacks.net/2022/01/13/some-firefox-users-report-connection-issues-workaround-inside As an interim solution, you can use Chrome, Opera or other browsers. If you prefer to overcome the log-in problem with Firefox, you can use the following workaround, which was published by Boarischa Krautmo : ♦…

We have added a new feature for users with Standard (or Plus) Club membership. When viewing photos with the 'small' option (where the images are all cropped to square), there is now a mouse-over effect that shows the 240 pixel image. This allows you to see a larger uncropped preview of the image before deciding to visit the photo page. Just like the popup when you mouse-over a user's name, there is a short delay to avoid the annoyance of having a popup whenever the mouse goes over an image…

Dear club members, dear friends, In 2017, when I was asked by William Sutherland and Lutz Petersen to help save ipernity from shipwreck, I had just turned 65. I felt too young and energetic for a tranquil retirement. So I went for it, knowing well that it would be a challenging venture full of uncertainties because no one on the founding team was a qualified IT professional. But volunteering for a worthwhile non-profit project appealed to me, and as a passionate mountaineer I was used to hand…

Little storm? Compared to all the really important issues it was nothing but a short gentle breeze, I know ;-) And some of you were right, I should calm down. Yes, I did, I do. Maybe, I overreacted. And, Kiezkickerde, you are right, I should distinguish between the private person Bergfex and the board of IMA, for which he surely does and excellent job. We are thankful for it. To make it clear, of course I respect the rules of any group and I always understood, what Bergfex said, that a "hall…
