We've been live in 'beta' mode for just over two weeks now and we'd like to thank everybody for their feedback so far. In particular, Nathalie, Katie and Chris have made a number of suggestions that we are busy integrating in to the site.
This weekend we gave every member 10 invites, meaning you can now invite any friends to the site. Please feel free to send these out to any photographers you know who may be interested in joining this young community!
Image Upload Problems
Thanks to everyone that contacted us about the image upload method failing on some browsers. The problem is due to a security-patch in the new version of Flash Player (v10), which breaks the component we are using (the error you can expect is below). The vendor are releasing a new version of the component that we should have running on the site in the next couple of days. Until then, if you are able to use a browser with an older version of Flash you will be able to upload images. Apologies for this.
"Error: Error #2176: Certain actions, such as those that display a
pop-up window, may only be invoked upon user interaction, for example
by a mouse click or button press.
