Questions about Tookapic changes
I notice Tookapic changed it's main accent color from green to blue recently and I was just wondering why? The green was nice and something different since so many websites use shades of blue. If this question has already been answered, please feel free to link me to it!
I was also wondering what the little pro mark on some pictures is all about? At first I thought it meant that the user was a Hero user, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Marcin (tookapic.com/zzmysl) has quite a few 'pro' photos for example.
I couldn't find any other talks about these changes but I might have missed something in my search. I'm personally curious and figured others might be as well.
Ian Prince Well if ever Olympus wants to send me gear to promote with the pro badge, I'm all in ;)
agnieszka bladzik ha me too :) i can use new phone as well as i'm thinking what to buy in case my Oly shutter will die again like last two times - one on holidays :(
Ian Prince :) I know how you feel, my E-M5 shutter only works 50% of the time over 1000/th of a second....@Kazzi have you run into this problem at your camera shop?
Kazzi @agnieszka @Ian - nope, not even once... but I strongly recommend taking advantage of Olympus masterclass service, they really rarely make any problems, even after warranty period.
agnieszka bladzik i already have my shutter fixed on warrenty 2 times [they change it last time], now i'm facing blackness of back screen every now and than when i move the screen or sth. hope that next time they will give me new one as i have extdended warrenty. my only hope is to have photos from my holidays in may
Ian Prince Thanks Kazziz. I can't find any reference to the Olympus masterclass service here in Switzerland. Am I missing something?
Kazzi Remember it's about three weeks of waiting time when You send the camera to Olympus service...
Kazzi there are two services in Europe - Czech Republic and Portugal, as far as I remember. But don't worry - it takes about three-five additional days of travel (combined there and back), but the service sends back 90% of cameras in three days from their arrival.
Satoshi T When I went "Olympus service station", I was told that it would be possible to repair one hour for the rubber cover of thumb rest, three days for mechanical trouble. However, here is closed on Thursday ... for reference when everyone visits Japan with Oly.
Ian Prince Thanks Satoshi, noted ;)
Satoshi T You are welcome Ian. and if you have, don't forget world-wide-warranty card ;) .
tigg I had to send my EM5 ii off to Portugal last year - very happy with the service. Which was free ...
agnieszka bladzik and back to top arrow on the left - meeeh ;)
Chris Breitigan Indeed, I noticed that as well
Bridget Braun I too miss the nice green :)
Katrina Yu I'm taking a guess, but the pro mark could be "promoted"? Seeing the Samsung phone ads...
Chris Breitigan Good idea, I didn't think about that!
Katrina Yu Forgot to add, photos taken by the Samsung phone that's in the ads. :D
aldabwoods The new embed code isn't working on my Wordpress hosted blog. :(
Paweł Kadysz Please send details at support@tookapic.com - what does it mean it doesn't work?
Paweł Kadysz Nevermind, I got your message. We're looking into it.
aldabwoods Woo! Thank you.
Ross Are the Photo Ratings for Hero members coming back? I know it was only automated but I found it a neat little feature
Paweł Kadysz The API for that was unfortunately killed.
Kateli Shame ! I liked them too !! But always open to any other novelties !! ;O)
Satoshi T Shame! That AI said about wrong something which people do not point out...
Paweł Kadysz No app in the world does that (legally). Instagram's API simply does not allow uploads with third-party apps.
Kazzi I don't like that. :(
Chris Breitigan I think it's mostly for security, so that people can't create spam accounts/apps that continuously post ads or other spam
Kazzi there already are so many spam accounts...
Chris Breitigan Yeah it's unfortunate 😞😠
Satoshi T In this morning, I chatted with Paweł with Help Widget in the bottom right of the screen, but afterwards Paweł has been still in the bottom right :) . It seems that I have been observing my behavior by Paweł forever.... :)
agnieszka bladzik i'm not a fan of new font :(
Paweł Kadysz We're experimenting. Who knows, maybe we'll change it to Comic Sans soon :P
Jennifer Conversely, I really like it. To each their own I suppose!
Ian Prince +1 for Comic Sans ;)
Ian Prince I quite like the new font too as well as all the other tweaks :)
agnieszka bladzik i like the top bar ;)
Ian Prince Profile statistics pane is especially cool :)
Ian Prince Me too. The search is much easier to use now :)
Chris Breitigan Logging in today was certainly new. But I like it. I like the font because it doesn't seem so boring, for lack of a better word. This is playful and different and I think that's a good vibe for the site
agnieszka bladzik i will add that not fan of the font in titles - where it's big ;)
Paweł Kadysz Exactly. I wanted the site to seem more playful. The font needs some size adjustments here and there, but I think makes the site less "serious".
Chris G How about Wingdings?
jewels I personally love it!
DIMITAR Where good old font on our site? 😞
jewels How do you search for a user now? If I simply enter the name in the search bar, I find either photos where the name was mentioned or nothing at all. I am probably missing something :-)
120mr I have a problem with it too.
Paweł Kadysz User search is coming back next week.
120mr Nice! And how to turn off the box with information about missed days? There is a 'x' but it doesn't work.
Paweł Kadysz The x ia not for closing the box. It just indicates a missed day. To remove the box - don't miss any days.
Or you can turn it off here: tookapic.com/account/settings but we should probably make it a separate premium feature. $1 per missed day hidden :P
Paweł Kadysz In your (and in my case) it shouldnt show. Yesterday shouldn't be counted as missed. We'll fix it next week.
Kazzi I was going to write, that missed days should appear after two or more - but You were faster, Paweł. As usual... ;)
120mr Thank you, it's a great idea. :)
Marek Szymczuk User search is back.
Ian Prince Thanks tookapic.com/search?q=marek&am... ;)
Satoshi T Thanks!
Gogi Golzman cool changes =]

Przepraszam, że po polsku, ale jestem przeziębiony i angielski to za duże wyzwanie ;)
Mam dwa wnioski racjonalizatorskie.
1. Mam ileś tam osób, które mnie obserwują i ileś tam tych, które ja obserwuję. Ale jak zauważyłem, spora ich część jest nieaktywna. Czy dałoby się zrobić tak, żeby liczniki w profilu pokazywały tylko osoby aktywne? Tzn. na przykład takie, które dodały choć jedno zdjęcie w ostatnim miesiącu. Takie statystyki byłyby moim zdaniem bliższe prawdy niż to co jest obecnie.
2. Czy dałoby się przy tematach rozmówek dodać przycisk pozwalający oznaczyć wątek jako przeczytany albo wręcz ignorowany? Na ten przykład temat o zlocie użytkowników na drugim końcu świata nie jest dla mnie jakoś szczególnie ważny, a i tak muszę w niego wejść, żeby nie wyświetlał mi się jako nieprzeczytany (tak, ja należę do tych osób, których inbox w mailu musi pokazywać zero, bo w przeciwnym wypadku czuję się źle, że czyjegoś maila nie miałem jeszcze czasu zignorować ;) ).
Satoshi T Teraz mamy odznakę dla użytkownika: Hero, Invited, Commenter, seller, 365-finisher ... Myślę, że dla nich dodatkowo, myślę, że jest dobre "aktywne" (codzienne i codzienne ładowanie niemal każdego dnia), aby rozpoznać aktywnego użytkownika :)
Bridget Braun Change is good :)
