Photography Question

Adding favorites


I like many of the new features I discovered today but 2 elude me.

I can't seem to figure out how to "Keep track of your favorite BetterPhoto photographers."

Also I have seen at least one member who's gallery page is black. How can I do that too?

  Arlene,

#1 - you may find the answer in this thread,
http://www.betterphoto.com/forms/QnAdetail.php?threadID=29563 .

#2 - there is currently no option to change the background/text colors in the premium gallery customization.
But you can do it using wacky HTML code in your gallery blurb. If you are interested in doing so, email me by using the contact button on the left.

  Nobi Thanks for your reply. I do not know how to html so I'll keep the white and be happy.

That link for question #1 did not answer my question. Some people have clickable links for adding to a favorites list while others don't. For example you don't. I just checked.

  Arlene,

HTML is not that hard but I would say it is a little primitive. But once you get into it, you will find it fun to play with...


As for adding Favorite photos/photographer button, I believe the site still has some kinks that need to be worked out.

If you go straight to the photos from the gallery like yours and mine, as
you said, you do not see the clickable link most of the time.
If read some entries in the discussion I listed, you should see the the following.

1. go to individual photos from "Recent Contest Entries" or
go to individual photos from Editor's First Picks",
then you will see the "Add My Favorite Photos" and "Add My Favorite
Photographers" button.

2. use the BP Search Window for a person's name...
in the search results that appear, click on one of the photos,
then, you will see the "Add to my Favorite Photos" and "Add My Favorite
Photographers" button.

If this is still unclear, pls let me know.

  you know so much nobi one,ever present,ever helping.
I do in a rough/rogue sense try to help.maybe by hitting my head on doorways and having my head taken off by tree limbs,i'll have enough sense knocked in me to learn.
I guess even on the same road we neither see the same path or take the same turn?yet my friend,changing vehicles is not an option.yet?
I believe I have a grandchild like you,probably be a teacher.well,she is already.i'm just a poor student.
all my best,sam

Message from Jim Miotke himself in another thread,

... "In the good news, you'll notice that you can now add favorites from the Premium BetterPholios too."

Add Favs has gotten whole a lot easier, indeed.


Hey Sam-I-am, good seeing ya again. :)
