I like this. You've been very busy on 23 these past couple of days!
Best wishes, Andy

Have to hit my one thousand by the end of the month, in time to upload the next thousand. Got a big collection to sort out.

Ach! They've stopped me at 921.
Andy Rodker December 23, 2016, 12:58 AM
That's not fair to stop you at 921 ... and I bet your best ones were from 922 to ... say ... 10,000! !

I think I understand. But ... Free 1000 uploads per month. How on earth do they make any money????
Are you trying to upload your portfolio from somewhere else before it gets totally frazzled? Please let me know if I should be doing something different than just sitting here???????

I'm ex-f**ckr, soon to be ex-ipernity, just trying to slowly get myself organised in one place. But nothing will be frazzled, as I'll download it all over Christmas. I'd assumed you were ex-ipernity too?
Andy Rodker December 23, 2016, 12:19 PM
Yes. Ex-Panoramio , then just as loads of us were happily settling in at ipernity we got the bad news.
...same old, same old ...
I want to give 23 a fair shot. I don't need to upload everything straight away; I can do it bit by bit and intersperse with new material. I have all my photos in the cloud with Picasa and on an external hard drive.
But the best result would be to keep ipernity and I have asked Santa VERY nicely for this!!!

More bad news, I'm afraid. It's NOT 1000 free uploads per month.
They've now reduced it to thirty.

I'm thinking of signing up with Phanfare.

Andy Rodker January 03, 2017, 04:26 PM
So how much is it and are they going to improve it for our money?
What is Phanfare? I suppose I will need to Google it.
So they have seen the dollar sign light up with the increase in numbers!

23 Plus is £17 a year for unlimited uploads.

Phanfare is £23.70 and you can organise your page the way you like it.
Here are a few samples.

Thank you Isisbridge. Yes, I went and checked it out but I couldn't see any hint of a community feel such as I have enjoyed on Pano, iperntity and also here, in a more limited way. Have I missed something or am I that antideluvian technovirgin with values that expired with the end of the last ice age, that I always feared I was? :o(

It depends what you are looking for. You're obviously a community type, whereas I'm more interested in arranging my photos and getting internet coverage.

The good news is that, after telling me this month's free quota was only 30, they've now increased it to 2000!

Andy Rodker January 04, 2017, 07:49 AM
Ha ha!!
You must be relieved!
It seems they have been taken by surprise by a few more members than usual and have yet to form a coherent strategy to deal with the opportunities this might bring!
I hadn't thought about it much before, Isisbridge but you are probably right. In order of the most important to me; 1) community, 2) displaying my photos and 3) internet coverage.
Isisbridge January 04, 2017, 10:40 AM
I'm puzzled then as to why you don't like f**ckr. I've been a member since 2006, but stopped using it after the revamp, as I can't stand that awful layout, with half the page black and half white, and all that distracting clutter round the picture. But if community is more important to you than display, then it might not bother you.
