[EN] Dear members and friends of ipernity! 1) On May 11, 2020 we received a message from PicMonkey that the old version of this image processing program will be shut down at the end of the year.

[EN] Dear members and friends of ipernity! 1) Exactly one year ago, on 23rd of February, 2017, the prefecture of Val-de-Marne issued the founding deed (as of 20.02.2017) to the ASSOCIATION DES MEMBRES D'IPERNITY. Since then, twelve busy months have passed, in which ipernity successfully has been rescued and the essential restructuring has been started. Without your support, that would not have been possible. We thank you for that. 2) Shortly after the takeover in September 2017, we had…

[EN] Dear members and friends of ipernity! To address questions being raised about Irene Steeves and her groups, I regret to say, we received several complaints about content Irene displayed in her photostream. IMA conducted a thorough investigation, from which the results required account suspension/deletion based on the Terms of Service and Guide of Good Conduct. This action was also taken to protect the best interests of all parties involved and stakeholders. As stewards entrusted to…

[EN] This morning a security certificate for ipernity expired. To update it, we need support from an IT professional. However, due to the weekend and holiday situation, nobody is available. Fortunately, Gerrit Fischer gave us a tip on how to log in anyway. We benefit from the fact that ipernity is not (yet) completely encrypted, but only the login and payment page: You simply backdate the Windows system and then log in. Go with the mouse pointer to the system date in the lower right co…

[EN] Dear members and friends of ipernity! 1) Last week we encountered irregularities related to gift subscriptions and upgrades of ipernity users who never had been club members before.

Depending on the urgency of the matter we will contact you individually. 3…

[EN] Dear members and friends of ipernity! 1) Four months ago we initiated a discussion about how we would like to describe ipernity to outsiders.

In the meantime an updated version of "About ipernity" has been created from the draft of November 2017, taking into account your suggestions. 2) With the help of our new IT service provider, we have put this version online today.

[EN] Dear members and friends of ipernity! 1) To make it easier for you to see what's new in ipernity, there's now a message bar at the top of your main page.

Club members with Standard or Plus subscriptions who wish to keep their page margins bright can do so individually via an advanced "Page Color" option menu. Moreover, the page color and the col…

[EN] Dear members and friends of ipernity! 1) The display of shooting positions has meanwhile been migrated from GoogleMaps to OpenStreetMap.

You can copy them directly into other applications, such as Google-Earth. 2) For the GEO-positioning of photos we have to use Google's fee-based service until further notice, because…

[FR] ▶️ Proposition de réactivation de l'espéranto [DE] ▶️ Reaktivierungsvorschlag für Esperanto [EN] Dear members and friends of ipernity, Ten months ago, we had decided to further maintain the ipernity website only in the seven main languages of the western hemisphere. This cut the software maintenance effort in half so we could achieve twice as much with our limited programming capacity. Despite this limitation, we do reach 99.3% of all club members in their native langua…

[EN] Dear members and friends of ipernity! 1) To date, 213 users have renewed their subscriptions early. As a result, the liquidity of the community has increased by 8,797 EUR. Unfortunately, it is not about additional income, but only about temporal shifts. Due to the associated losses in the exchange rate adjustments, even 374 EUR less will come into the cash register. 2) As of today, the adjusted contributions to costs will come into force. We would like to point out again that the…
