Bill Bowes Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 OK, did everyone run off and join the circus before it's over this year? It has been the pit's for sure with this ver 2.2 thing. It still is the 20th here in Hawaii, so I will pop something in from the sunday Farmers Market. Trusty Fed-2 / Jupiter-8 combo, UFX400, PyrocatHD & V600 scan. As an "aside", am I the only one who see's just thumbnails if they do not sign in? I do not think a "newbie" or one browsing thru the site for the 1st time will be impressed by that feature. . . I am not! Aloha, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Gammill Posted February 21, 2017 Author Share Posted February 21, 2017 I've noticed the thumbnails only if not signed in too, Bill. The staff has a lot of problems to fix, according to some of the threads I've read. I'm wondering if it would be less work to simply return to the previous version.

Bill Bowes Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I will "re rate" the feature. Seems when the nail is "clicked" a some what 1/2 image appears in the left part of the screen. Perhaps the admin guys are a bit crafty here. . . like a potato chip. . . ya gotta have another!? Aloha, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_williams19 Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Looks like the 20th is still available so I'll take today. This was from a recent trip to Zion National Park in Utah. It was shot on Scala 200 and processed by dr5. The camera involved was my Contax IIa using a Nikkor 28mm lens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rick_drawbridge Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Thanks, Bill. I had a long enough break to reduce my irritability down to my normal grumpy level. No masses of classic cars, I'm afraid, but with Easter holiday on the horizon there could be a few local meets then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Gammill Posted February 24, 2017 Author Share Posted February 24, 2017 Great photo, Rick. This version of Photo.net has its frustrations, inconveniences, and parts that don't work as they should, but it's what we have. I plan to post within the limitations that this new site has imposed.

rick_drawbridge Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Yes, Mike, overall I like the new format of Photo.net, and I'm hanging in with the expectation that things will improve. As you say, there's really no choice but to work with the status quo, on a daily basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rick_drawbridge Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Well, I'll try to establish the relationship between my time zone and Photo.net's. Given that Photo.net is based in North Andover, Massachusetts, it should be in the Eastern Standard Time zone, and it should now be around 2.15 pm on Saturday, February 25. I'm 18 hours ahead of this, it now being 8.15 am on Sunday February 26, which means Photo.net's new day begins at 6.0 pm in the evening, my time. So, here's a post for Saturday.<BR><BR> Nikon FE : Tamron Adaptall 2 SP 35-80mm f/2.8-3.8 (Model 01A) : Arista EDU Ultra 100 : PMK Pyro.<BR><BR><BR><BR> Princess 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rick_drawbridge Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 So much for that Time Zone theory... It looks as if Photo.net is running on G.M.T. At least we know where we stand! Well, where we currently stand... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James G. Dainis Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 <B>Rick,</B> Your "Workzone" photo shows up on my computer as " rick_drawbridge, Today at 7:29 PM " ("Today" = Sunday). On the old Photo.net the time was set to Eastern Standard Time for everyone. With the new improved version each member can set the time for their time zone by clicking on their name in the upper right corner and selecting "preferences" from the pop up. I am on the East coast of the United States so I have set my time for EST, Eastern Standard Time. James G. Dainis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rick_drawbridge Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Thanks, James, I'd discovered that and appreciate your advice. However, I'm not quite sure why individual members would want to work in their own time zone... However, with a 365 day thread there has to be some standard time for the thread, so we can work on a daily basis. My "yesterday" is not necessarily your "yesterday"... Personally, I found EST quite OK, and now Photo.net seems to have settled on GMT/UTC I'm happy with that. I'd still prefer to see a post tagged with an explicit date and time rather than "Today" or "3 minutes ago"; why not "Monday 6.3.17@10.15am"? Or even go to a 24 hour clock,1015?

James G. Dainis Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 I liked the EST setting and have changed my forums times to it. I could have an idea of what I was doing when a thread or response was posted. Posted at 03:00 AM meant that I was asleep and a poster would necessarily expect a quick answer except from fellow insomniacs or if he was on the other side of the word from fellow other-side-of-the-worlders. <BR><BR>Perhaps for this 365 day thread each poster should put the day of the week at the beginning of his post.

Bill Bowes Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Good idea. Monday 3/04/2017 0938 hrs local time . Photo is from Agfa Isolette 2, UFX400, PyrocatMC & V600 scan. Aloha, Bill 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rick_drawbridge Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Sensible suggestion, James; I'll set my time to our local time and see how we go. You'll appreciate that, being (currently) 18 hours ahead of your EST, things can get complicated. I'd always guessed that the majority of CMC contributors were working in EST, and timed my posts accordingly, finding it easier to work in "Forum Time". Great pic of the Star of India, Bill!
