Time to say goodbye

I've just cancelled my subscription, which is valid till 29th of November. I know it's a bit in the middle of my year, but that how it was with starting paid subscription. I was preparing to this step since some time, I think even earlier than I've realized it. The issues with the tookapic future and current situation here just make it all easier.

I have a small feeling of betrayal, but going "on my own" is a step that I need in my overall personal development right now. I have multiple instagram profiles, webpages and facebook pages that are a bit abandoned. I'd be deeply touched if you find me somewhere in the internet (IG marta_najeli, FB najeli.fotografia) and keep in touch.

Those years here were great and I'm really grateful that I could join this community. I keep finger crossed for all of your projects and for this place in general.

Have fun! And thank you so much! ♥

Kateli Take care and we'll follow each other on IG.
I'll probably be doing the same soon... been meaning to do it for a few months now... but I can't.
Things here are slowing down and I can see that some people have already left.
I've loved being on Tookapic and have just ordered my album for the very first year here. My photos were awful and I can definitely see the progress now that I'm on year six.
I've got an album for each year and will have to do the same for the sixth incomplete year.
Here is where I learned photography !
I will never thank Pawel enough for that !!

Margie Can you still order albums? I got ones for my first two years and then the format changed.

Kateli Just another question : am I to understand that if I cancel my subscription that goes on to 08.12.21 (date when I have to pay again) I will still have full access to tookapic up until then (8th December) ?
Thanx for your answer.

Marta Tomaszewska It looks like that from the message I've got after cancelling mine. I should be able to upload photos till 29.11

Sylwia Perkowska See you anywhere we are invited. It will be a pleasure to keep in touch and being able to see your works.

Marta Tomaszewska I hope that I'll manage to public them in such regular manner as here :)

Hanna Gawrychowska smutno i szkoda, że nic nie wyszło z trójmiejskiego spotkania ...
mój abonament kończy się w styczniu więc może wytrzymam do końca choć gdy widzę jak tookapic pustoszeje też mam ochotę na odejście

Marta Tomaszewska Może gdyby obecna sytuacja trafiła na inny okres mojego życia to bym trwała pomimo wszystko. Ale teraz jest moment, by pójść dalej... (w tym momencie w radiu Sosnowski zaśpiewał "dalej, jak najdalej" 😂 z przeznaczeniem się nie wygra 😂😂😂)

Hanna Gawrychowska no to zazdroszczę przeznaczenia
już kilka razy chciałam odejść z tookapic i jakoś tak wracałam i wracałam.
A teraz nie bardzo wiem co dalej - tookapic narzuca/narzucał pewien rytm, przymus i to skutkowało "mobilizacją" chociaż to jaki teraz jest tookapic jakoś mnie nie mobilizuje
ale może wytrwam do końca

Marta Tomaszewska gdyby mi się abonament kończył później to bym pewnie trwała do końca ;-)

craig Sorry to see you go Marta. I guess it is only a matter of time until we all go. I do not post on IG but do have an account so will follow your adventures. I will continue here until it closes but also have a blipfoto account and a project which has been running for 10 years now. I am also using Flickr to document the activity with the Heron so will be busy.
Take care and I will see you on FB or IG

Hanna Gawrychowska Craig - how to find you on blipfoto?

craig Hi Hanna this link should take you to my profile page blipfoto.com/CraigD

craig Have you just joined as HaGaw?

Phillip Flores Blipfoto is almost similar to Tookapic. Thanks for the heads up.

craig Yes It is quite similar.

Hanna Gawrychowska Yes. I’m HaGaw

craig Great to see you! I hope you enjoy it! If you have any questions just ask.

Hanna Gawrychowska I will certainly have questions and will ask then

Ian Prince I’ll really miss your photos here Marta 😢 … but I do understand 😊

P.s. *if* Tookapic does shut down I seem to remember that Paweł wrote that outstanding subscriptions would be refunded. Not sure if that makes a difference to your decision though….

Marta Tomaszewska I'm not saying that I won't return here some day. But in current situation I just need to go.

I hope that we'll keep in touch somewhere in the web :)

bartlomiej_w Dziękuję za twoją obecność tutaj, na Tookapic - twoje fotografie były niezłą inspiracją. Trzymaj się.

Marta Tomaszewska Dziękuję! ❤

Michał Damn it. Your music and travel-related pics were great! And I'm awkward - no IG nor FB account so might be challenging to follow you. But hey, I totally understand. Hope to see you somewhere, someday, maybe even in person. Good luck with all your projects!

Marta Tomaszewska Thank you!
There are always my personal pages accessible without any accounts: najeli.pl and ultramarta.pl - still without any recent updates, but I'm working on it and aim to make it main place of my publications 😊

Marta Tomaszewska ...and this moment has really come.

But I have no more words.
Take care everybody! ❤
And thank you for everything ❤

Artur Łobocki Nieee. Wielka szkoda. Do zobaczenia gdzieś na mieście dżemowa koleżanko ;)

Marta Tomaszewska Do zobaczenia!

Ron Dadoo good luck Marta!!

Marta Tomaszewska thank you! till now it's going good, I'm right now at day 1622, unfortunately switched to Polish posting at ultramarta.pl (because of my mum who finally can read all of that :D)

Iwona- shadoke Do zobaczenia, Marto. Smutno, ogromnie smutno... dziękuję, za Twoje obrazy i słowa, i uśmiech, za wszystko!

Marta Tomaszewska A ja dziękuję za te słowa!

Marta Tomaszewska Hello from the other side ;-)

Today I've finished fifth year of 365. And of course tookapic is the first thing I can thing about in such moment :)
I'm still stay on my own temporary site: ultramarta.pl/daily/20220706 - hope that google translate won't make fools out of me, as I'm writing in polish for my mum being able to read that ;-)

PS. It's funny that's over a half a year till I've ended my subscription and I'm still in top contributors :D

tigg I haven't messaged on this forum for ages ..... and I am just below you on that list!

Marta Tomaszewska I didn't have a big counter of notifications after few months ;) rather nobody is eager to chase us ;)
