Symbiostock - General / zip question (was png question)
« on: May 23, 2013, 10:21 »
I would like to include some png files as design elements so they keep their transparent backgrounds - or is it better to create them as tiffs so they keep the exif data then upload as zips and do you also upload a jpg?   I know I saw somewhere what do do about these type of files but cannot find it at the moment, can someone help please - in non-technical terms ;)

752
Hi David, I am probably wrong but I think it is greyed out because it is taking a long time to load - on home page as well
Is there any reason you want people to list your pictures on facebook for free rather than paying for them ?   :)

You will also get your pictures come up  other network members sites which can be confusing as well at first

Hi Leo

With V 2 if the site that is originally searched does not have any results their category list comes up (which is a good thing) and below it are the results from the network.

I think maybe the wording at the top of the category list should be changed from

No results found.  Try browsing the categories.  Maybe you will find some hidden gems!

To something like

No results fit your search, try browsing the categories to see if you can find the hidden gems.  Or scroll down to see my network members results

For some people the network results will show up on the page but on others (no names mentioned :) who may have somewhat detailed category lists) might need to scroll down a bit further

I think it is a good idea to show the category list as this will give them information for future needs.

##

Been thinking again: the network directory, at some point in the future, could there be a way for clients to "bookmark" certain sites that they are interested in so they stand out and they don't have to search through to find the ones they have seen but cannot remember where?

Hi Amanda

I use All Images as a check for me to make sure I have the same number of images categorised as I do listed, added this category when I first started and has been useful, might get too unwieldy at some point but still works at the moment.

Did you get chance to look at the css I sent you?

757
If Leo wants to remove any of the network sites from links to try things out he is more than welcome - it is there to experiment with

758

This is pretty good, because Tinny had added like 10 people and it was impossible for her site to load properly. Great she discovered that limitation. Now its smooth sailing!



Is that why I did not get the Network link at the bottom of the page?  I did not discover it, I saw it was different to yours and you discovered why :D

Works now - brilliant work the pair of you.  Wish I could help with that sort of thing but I am embarrassed to admit that I don't have a clue what you are talking about half the time let alone how to do it.

Just a thought.
Will we be able to omit/ban people from the extended network list on our sites if we don't like for instance the quality of the work they produce, the subjects they show?

Another thought
Might be worth recommending that the first few words of everyone's profile details are the most pertinent as they will show up in the directory before anyone clicks to open the file  (ie - http://tulip.kerioak.com/symbiostock-network-directory/ ) so they need to grab a clients attention

Yet another thought
Where are our clients?

759
Hi leo, the single image pages have , I think , an extre box underneath.  Image Categories and Categories

760
V. 2.2.0
Leo, if I do a search on your site I see at the bottom of the page the footer AND the Extended network directory link.

 Is this a widget (as I cannot find it) as I do not have either the footer or the directory link at the base of my search pages.  I have disabled my child theme in case that was causing the problem but still no footer or directory link

761
I don't think we are going to be able to agree to have one licence across all the sites which in a way is a shame as it means that clients licensing images from more than one of us have to agree to different terms in different places.

Maybe Cidepix's would make a good staring point but with the option to add different options for those of us who are willing to charge more and let clients use the images for different purposes such as calendars or exclusive use for a certain period of time.

If we could create a licence that is the same for everyone but we can pick and choose which clauses to use would that be of benefit to the network?

I think the answer to Leo's question is that we will all agree to go our own separate ways regarding licences ? :)


762
sorry, forgot I had to re-add the widget, was looking for the button that created them :)

763
I still cannot find the similar images button - have you moved it somewhere else?

Your network directory page looks great, mine looks a mess (http://tulip.kerioak.com/symbiostock-network-directory/ )    would this be because I have edited my child theme?

Edited to add It was - I have edited theme a little and that section looks much better

764
I like your license Christine, can I edit it and use it on mine? :)

Yes, put it in your own words though :)  I am not a solicitor so have no idea how legal it is, I just put it forward as a reply to Leo's original question to see what others thought.  I also changed my FAQ's and front page to remove any mention of royalty free

765
I don't have the similar images button either


Model/Property releases - these are going to be somewhat time consuming to go though and edit individually for all the images already listed, is there a way of selecting them in the "all images" area and add it there - please?

766
Hi Leo - if you meant playing with mine - feel free, I will stay away from it until you have finished so just let me know then I will try some uploads etc

767
V 2.1.8   tulip.kerioak.com

I like that only those members with images available show up, makes the page much neater.

Network list - still the same problem as shown in my screenshots above, even though David and Cascoly only appear once in my list (and yes I did notice and use the up/down buttons :) )   They still appear twice in the network friends list in the public pages.

The "wizzy" results in a search, I think they wizz by a little too fast, there is not time to look at them all properly before they disappear, I wonder if it would be better to leave the arrows there and let clients click on them themselves or make the much slower?

I would still like to see an option for more images to show up from the original site - or maybe one of the wizzy buttons there as well so they all match?

When first updating the theme you see a page with
/><!DOCTYPE html>
<!--[if IE 8]>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="ie8 wp-toolbar"  lang="en-US">
<![endif]-->
<!--[if !(IE 8) ]><!-->
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="wp-toolbar"  lang="en-US">
<!--<![endif]-->
<head>

It is easily passed by returning but might confuse some people

768
That looks as if it would be very, very complicated to incorporate - it is bad enough just trying to get though one section and I admit, if I was trying to purchase a single small image I would give up on it very quickly with all the permutations that are involved

769
I have edited my EULA (again) and removed all mention of royalty free - constructive comments would be appreciated

V 2.1.6 - uploaded 21 pictures and processed fine (so much easier when you don't have to add SEO or change titles and descriptions).

There is a problem with the network list though.  I think you may have played with it during the night (my night) ?  as names were in a different order.

Rather than try and explain I will show some screenshots of the names I have in the network and how they appear in my profile

One extra thing I think this does show is how few of us are likely to use photos of ourselves :)




771
It is not "like" buttons that we want people to click,  it is the one marked "buy" :)

772
Leo, I think the .animal"search bug results was because members had not all updzted their symbikcards?  I have rearranged the order and think there is onlu one line now without a name/link in it

773
Leo - the emails.  I think part of the problem is they all look identical, it is not until you open up the full headers and read though all the details that you see who they have been sent to and see they are not all duplicates

774
THE BUG

sites typed in manually appear on the list, but I suppoese they generate search errors & they can't be removed

How are you deleting them - removing the names or clicking on the tiny " - " after the box at the end of the line which I would guess is the best way of getting rid of any you do not want and then updating ?
(this is guesswork)

775
Hi David

Forget about creating an Author page - delete it (for the purposes of this networking exercise).

Leo has set it up so that if we fill in the information in our profiles and save it, it automatically creates an author page.  Now go to the Symbiostock networking page and fill that in with the others who are using V2 (there is a list in post 34 of this page http://www.microstockgroup.com/symbiostock-development-area/symbiostock-version-2-0-previews/25/) and either copy and paste them in or go to the sites and collect their symbiocards which can be found under any of the images and upload them.  If you type in the addresses then click on the box underneath the network section (update symbiocards) and save it at the bottom of the page along with the two check boxes there.

I think I have this right, if not no doubt someone will correct me :D
