New Email Notification Feature Feedback!!!

1. Fotki Comment Notification is a neat feature and is similar to facebook's popular notification system.

The default option should be user definable, so that a member can set it the way she or he wants and not have to click the box each time to always appear with or without a checkmark. A good place for this setting might be the Notification Section on the "My Account" page.

Note... Usually I and many others, would copy comment answers, responses or replies into the guestbook of the member who left a photo comment. This new feature would eliminate that step, but it is important to realize that the other person may have email notifications set to "off", and may not ever see the additional activity. Nothing to do about it, just a heads up...

2. I see that Fotki now includes all areas in the notification section:
New comments on my photos
New messages in my guest book
I am Friend of” list updates
About new messages in my journals
About new messages in my forums

Except Videos... add "New comments on my videos" to the list in the "My Account - Notification Section"!!!

Then that would complete the list for now...
The user definable feature of Yes/No ability gives everyone a choice and the frequency of notifications to ones email is cool.

3. There should be a "reply edit delete" for journal, forum and video comments just like there is for photo comments and guestbook entries!!!

4. I am sure I'll add some things but that's it for now '-)))
Take an asprin, I'll be back '-))) Gary

Sending Photos from your iPhone or other mobile device to Fotki!!!

Hi Jen and Tim at http://members.fotki.com/jenandtim/about/

I saw your request for an iPhone app in the Fotki Blog and wanted to share a suggestion with you '-)))

I also have an iPhone and it works great with Fotki... You don't need a special app.

If uploading to Fotki is your only concern, then you can just email a photo from your iPhone directly to the Fotki Album of your choice using the Fotki email to an album feature in the album properties section of any album...

Just go to "Email/MMS address for uploading:" section in an album's properties and create an email address for that album. Then send photos from your iPhone, or any mobile camera/phone device, to that email address!!! You can create an email address for any album and thereby send your photos to the album of your choice by selecting the corresponding album's email address from your contact list... It's a snap!!!

If your desire is to send a photo (s) to multiple social networking sites simultaneously,
such as Fotki and Facebook, etc. then visit Fotki's download page ---> http://downloads.fotki.com/ and select Pixelpipe (www.Pixelpipe.com)
That is a cool app!!!

With Pixlepipe you can, "Use your camera phone as intended and upload easily and directly to your Fotki account through Pixelpipe gateway.
Supports all major mobile phone platforms, including iPhone."

If you need more help just ask / GaryGS1 in Nj=USA

Are you wasting time uploading to multiple networking or media sharing sites?

Thanks to Roman (Fotki Customer Service Staff) I have discovered that I can
upload, for example, to Fotki and Facebook at the same time with www.Pixelpipe.com

video and audio files once through Pixelpipe and have the content distributed across

Imbedding Music into a Journal Entry that contains a photo...

Mate, Mike asked me if there's any way to add a sound file to a photo in an album.
I know you have how tos for adding music files to welcome pages,
but I'm not sure if you can do it with one individual file?

Peter

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
About the music in Pix... yes and no... no you can't add to a pic file... yes you can
have music with a photo if you do it in a journal entry like here.
Paste the code of the pic and the url and html of the music file in the same journal entry.

Example... paste the music code in first comment and pic file into a journal entry. You can change the music or photo by chaning the source code but not the other html. PS... You have to choose "No" to auto formatting!!! Hope this helps!!!
PS... since the music code is invisible here except in the edit screen
I have pasted them into the first comment, below!!!
Hope this helps!!! Gary

Movies I have Rented and Watched!!!

Most are from www.netflix.com
(and the list is not complete)
http://public.fotki.com/GaryGS1/home_pictures/moviesihavewatched/

If you don't have a Netflix account consider
getting set up. It's easy, cheap and provides
a huge database that is easily searched by
choosing unique parameters of your choice.
You can even set up a Q or list of films in the
order you want to recieve them.

"The World is Yours, You Just Have to Know
How to Access It" Enjoy Your World!!!! Gary

This is nice for your special photos and albums that you most want to bring attention too...
And you can remove from "About Me" page display anytime you want by taking out the tag "featured" from that album or photo.

Our Connecticut Fotki Friend, Peirce Wishes All His Fotki Friends a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!

Peirce from Connecticut (http://members.fotki.com/Peirce/about/)
and I had a nice chat today ( 12-20-08) on the telephone!!!

Unfortunately, he is feeling under the weather and exhausted from health issues
and medications, and hence his recent absence from Fotki and the Friends he Loves!

He absolutely adores all of the thoughtful and magnificent holiday greeting creations
that friends have, and are, sending his way. He is saddened by the fact that he is just
too exhausted to reply likewise at this time, but wanted everyone to be mindful
of his appreciation and the enjoyment he is receiving from the kindness of his friends!

Peirce wanted me to thank everyone and wish you, on his behalf, "All the Best" / Gary G. Schempp

Peter Molenaar traveled all the way from the Netherlands to spend 2 weeks of his summer
vacation here in the USA. One of the best days was visiting Peirce in Connecticut. Peirce
gave Peter and I a grand tour of the Danbury Railway Museum and the Infamous Southbury
Library that Peirce has so professionally photographed.... Thumbnail is a link to that album!
