ipernity

Dear members and friends of ipernity,

1) Photon festival.

We have started an experiment. From September 5 to 7, 2025, we had a booth at the PHOTON Photography Festival in Illingen / Saar, Germany, where we promoted Ipernity.

Thanks to Bernhard (Bergfex), who traveled from Austria especially for this event, we were able to talk to visitors at the festival and raise awareness of Ipernity. We'll have to wait and see if this will be reflected in the membership numbers.

We also learned that this approach is enjoyable because we were able to talk to people about Ipernity in person. And we realized that such an appearance can be improved and expanded. If we get another opportunity like this, we will repeat it.

2) New access to favorites.
When you have been viewing the content of another member, have you wondered which, if any you may have given a star to? The new link in the drop-down allows you to do this. If the tally is zero, the link is not active. It does what you would otherwise have had to do from your own page of 'Favorites', finding their name in the list.

3) Extended options under Explore->New.
While you may find new articles or groups by those members that you follow, these additional options enable you to search across the whole of ipernity.

Your ima team.

I agree that 'personal contact' is a good way to encourage new members.

Ich finde es sehr gut, wenn die Funktionen bei IP erweitert und verbessert werden.
Freuen würde ich mich nach wie vor, wenn unter Autorisierung:

Wer darf dieses Foto sehen?

Nur Sie (privat)
Familie
Freunde
Jeder (öffentlich)

eine zusätzliche Einstellung für Kontakte eingepflegt würde.

Danke sehr.
Freundliche Grüße und ein angenehmes Wochenende
Erich

Rob Stamp replied to sea-herdorf:

It is interesting that the options for 'Visibility' do differ from those for adding comments or keywords, and some thought should be given as to why it was programmed this way.

I will discuss this with the team. First the above issue, then what is feasible regarding changes to database. How much effort to edit all the places the option is displayed, can be changed, or is used for searches and database queries as to what to display to who.
