I enjoyed the video, Jim. Thanks for taking the time to help us get to know you and what you have in mind for BetterPhoto customers. I'm wondering what happens to the "pancake" menu when I go to my gallery. It just disappears. I either have to hit the back button on my browser or click the logo at the top of the page. When I click the logo, I (still) have to sign in again. Thanks for working on the bugs. (I'm a basic gallery member.)

I find it to be so wonderful that Better Photo is looking into getting it's members excited into it's website galleries. I'm sure it's overwhelming to get hundreds of questions a day from all of us. Some good some confused. I appreciate all you all do and know I am so happy for this site. I met my best friend Merna and others on this site. Thank you for all you do.

I would like to be able to get to my gallery more easily. It doesn't appear I can do so under the "pancakes" or after I upload an image. Feels a bit hit & miss finding a page where I can get to it. Otherwise, visual changes look good.

Jim, thanks for the video..it's obvious you have the passion for the site..and I thank you for bringing BetterPhoto to me back in 2005, as it's been the foundation for me wanting to improve my photography, and to see all the great scenery across the United States. I've met a lot of great friends because of BP. Good luck with BP 2.0. And it's great you are accessible to all of us. I hope to be associated with BP for many more years to come!

I am agreeing with folks that already commented. Daily, I see bugs being "killed" and I appreciate getting quick responses my questions as I acclimate. So things are looking good and of course it IS a big improvement. I sent you a personal message that includes my opinion on the new policy about multiple contest entries in a day. That is my only concern and I hope it is addressed too. Let's hope this brings folks back to BP. Looking forward seeing old friends here again.

Wow, this has been a great hearing. Hearing you speak with such passion and doing the amazing improvements on the site. thanks you. Well its really cool that we can now see videos at betterphoto and not on third party sites and that painting behind you looks beautiful. Looking forward to hearing more from you in the next video. My interest in photography has basically been due to my association with Bteerphoto for the last few years and I have learned so much here at BetterPhoto for which I am very grateful. Wishing you lots of success always ;) UB.

Fortunately, I am able to understand you in spite of my very severe hearing loss. I have read many of your books last year and they were a big help! Now that you may be using more videos, would there ever be a subtitle I can use? I would feel more comfortable. Yours was easy - you were facing the camera the whole time so I could read your lips and facial expressions to fill in the words I was missing. Your consideration will be much appreciated.

Hi Frederick. Absolutely, I am in the process of transcribing the videos. I don't (yet) know how to make true captions, on the video itself, but at least you'll see a rough transcription off to the side. In fact, I've finished a few... check them out at http://www.betterphoto.com/help.php

Just watched the third video and it was my favorite so far. Love the encouragement you presented with this one for me. Also I learned about the tag game and of course what the score was about. Its exciting to think about the possibility of winning a camera every 90 days. This was a great idea. Thanks for another great video, Jim.

I have a question. Will the option to upload images in the discussion area of an image be restored? When I post something in the Digital Darkroom category, I like to post what the original image looked like before I did anything to it and tell what steps I used to get the end result. I don't seem to be able to do that now. Also in the Photo Sort area, it would be cool if we could be able to choose whether it could be seen or not. Sometimes I decide I do not want an image in my gallery and if it's at the last pages, I have to go page by page in the Photo manage area to get to it to make it unseen. Love the way things are looking...all the work you have done is appreciated!

Thanks Jill. You will find the Photo Sort near the bottom of the main "Gallery Settings" page - all in one easy-to-remember place :) For attaching images to a discussion response, use the Photo Discussion part of the Forum. We won't be doing the image uploading under the photo on the enlargement page (dynoGallDetail) but you can do that if you use the alternate discussion page. Go to Community - Photo Discussions and use the particular thread there. Or you can go into My Profile - My Forum Activity... Thanks very much - I appreciate your appreciation :)
