fotoLibra, fonts, follies and other stuff not beginning with F.O.

The launch of fotoLibra Version 4.0

We haven’t got the new business blog up and running yet and this is the biggest thing in my life right now.

fotoLibra v4 went live at 01:14 GMT this morning. We’re now dealing with baffled users and one or two expected but unanticipated glitches. But judging by the number of uploads we’ve had today, I think we can safely say it’s been a roaring success.

Tomorrow the Picture Buyers start to hear about the new site, in a nice chocolately kind of a way. We’ve sent chocolate to everyone who’s ever bought a picture from us. I like chocolate, but this was a humungous amount. I made many trips to the post office, and this far I haven’t snaffled a bar.

Some of our members have taken to uploading pictures with captions containing punctuation such as apostrophes, dashes, brackets and even a tab! This renders the filename invisible to our system and Neil Smith apoplectic with rage. That’s zeugma, by the way. Don’t do it.

It looks like being Thursday ...Moving house

Don't do which? Don't upload pictures with *$% in the metadata? Or don't deliver a zeugma (which I had to look up, and so did everybody else who reads this blog, but none of the rest of them admit it!)
