Dear members and friends of ipernity,

1) Photon festival.
We have started an experiment. From September 5 to 7, 2025, we had a booth at the PHOTON Photography Festival in Illingen / Saar, Germany, where we promoted Ipernity.

Thanks to Bernhard (Bergfex), who traveled from Austria especially for this event, we were able to talk to visitors at the festival and raise awareness of Ipernity. We'll have to wait and see if this will be reflected in the membership numbers.

We also learned that this approach is enjoyable because we were able to talk to people about Ipernity in person. And we realized that such an appearance can be improved and expanded. If we get another opportunity like this, we will repeat it.

2) New access to favorites.
When you have been viewing the content of another member, have you wondered which, if any you may have given a star to? The new link in the drop-down allows you to do this. If the tally is zero, the link is not active. It does what you would otherwise have had to do from your own page of 'Favorites', finding their name in the list.

3) Extended options under Explore->New.
While you may find new articles or groups by those members that you follow, these additional options enable you to search across the whole of ipernity.

Your ima team.
