Title: Harrogate Autumn Show 2019 - Take 2
Post by: Tee Gee on September 15, 2019, 13:40:59
I have taken this piece of software on trial for two weeks to see what it is like, first impressions I am not very impressed!

At least I have got a few photos on line to assess the software.

Based on my brief look around you will have to click on a photo then select if you want to move them on individually or watch a slide show.

The thing that I noticed most was that the photo titles are not displayed initially, but they can be seen (along with a load more guff)  if you click on the three bars in the side menu.

I would appreciate feedback from you guys on what you think of the software at your end, this will help me decide if I take the system on permanently

Fingers crossed here we go;

I like the way you can view a lot of pics quickly, but to view the title is a bit of a faff and doesn’t stand out amongst all the photographers technical data.

Hi Ya Tee Gee,  I think the piccies are good but it is a drag to get there. How did you used to do it? It just might be me as I am not the most computer literate. I enjoyed seeing them. I noticed the site said buy pictures, who gets the dosh? Cheers any way. Cheers

As you may have noticed from the write ups I did  I also had problems hence me trying different software systems! When you say it was a bit of a drag to get there I guess you were in the Smugmug software who took over Flickr! I didn't like the software either hence me trying different software!

How did you used to do it?

I used to use Photobucket but when they started charging for the the service I moved away from them!

Glad to here that....watch this space there are more to come!

So far as I know....Not me!!!!! I think this is their way to minimise costs to people using their software but as I said....I don't like the software.

In fact the latter pictures are from my Flickr account and I noticed since Smugmugg took them over they have upped the site rental of my Flickr account so I cancelled that account this morning. I still have a couple of months left on this years rental so  all that will end then. 

I have been doing a bit of research on the subject and I have established that if I increase my website capacity I will be able to host my own pictures for less than half the price of the other suppliers meaning I can display them in any manner I choose be it  individual pics,sliders or slide shows.

Will research the situation a bit further before making my decision!

While I am on here are a few more Harrogate photos;
