The launch of fotoLibra Version 4.0
Thursday, 6. December 2007, 17:12:36
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.
