Dear members and friends of ipernity,

1) Unwanted phishing emails.
Further to the precaution of putting up a warning in our top banner, the policy on ipermails for new members has been revised. From the previous limit of 10 different recipients allowed per day for the first week, it is now far more restrictive to impact the scammers, while data shows that this should not affect honest new members.

IGA image for Club News - with text 2) Upcoming Ipernity General Assembly. First, a date for your diary, if you are able to plan around it. Sunday 22 March 2026, chosen to avoid the adjustment to clocks in both Europe and America.
Second, Andreas is stepping down from the role as Vice President. We'd like to take this moment to thank him for his support of ipernity including the booth at the in-person photography event.

Anyone interested in standing for election at the IGA can contact the team. You can read about what the job entails here.

Your ima team.

Thanks for the update.
Just a thought but I think there should be a limit on the uploads any one person can do at one time, for example I find it off putting when I go onto the new posts page to that it is flooded by images that are all similar from just one person. I wonder how others feel about this?

This issue has been examined before and it has been addressed by making the 'New' page not show any uploads by people you have blocked.

So if you come across someone who repeatedly uploads in large quantities, you can block their account. You will no longer see those uploads on the 'New' page.

Our 'New' page is the only place where one can find what our whole community is doing. It is only modified for an individual by blocking an account.

This way, as is common on our website, each person can set up their pages as they desire without putting their personal choices on anyone else.

Thanks for the answer and I do know what the new page is for, I understand that but from people I have asked they feel the same way as I do, there should be a limit on bulk uploading so that the New pics page is not bombarded by just one person. How about putting the question out to your members and finding out what they want?
I have been in camera clubs where they have asked questions to members and it is a case of the majority rules, if you put the question out there and the majority agree then that is better than just blocking people.

Es sollte kein anderer darüber entscheiden, wie viele Fotos jemand auf einmal hoch lädt, außer das Limit, was der vom jeweiligen Nutzer gewählte Tarif hat.
Aber mir durch andere vorschreiben zu lassen, dass ich pro Tag nur 50 Fotos hochladen darf - warum?!? Wenn ich nur einmal alle halbe Jahr dazu komme, meine bearbeiteten Fotos hier hoch zu laden, dann hat das niemanden zu interessieren - es ist meine Sache, wann ich wie viele Fotos hoch lade, so lange das mit den von mir ausgewählten Mitgliedsstatus möglich ist.

Ooh seems like someone has taken offence, it's a discussion to see what the majority think, but you obviously think it's okay to bombard the new images page.
If the team have discussed this before then it seems like it is a problem, what you are saying is you don't care, so....
