[EN] Hello everyone,
As we noted in our previous article we are willing to deploy ipernity on social networks starting with Facebook.
To do this, we need you !
We created a group to give you the opportunity to share your photos with us.
However, there are some rules :
- The share button must be enabled: check your settings HERE
- Format: ideally 1024 x 768 pixels; landscape; square
- No frame (or as thin as possible)
- Recent or popular images
- Ideally licensed CC
- No graphic nudity, violence, voyeurism, political content
- No Child pictures with a face visible / recognizable
We will explore themes regularly. Here are some suggestions to get started:
- Stunning Landscapes: the location of the shooting must be specified
- Curiosities: define or at least give a clue
- Funny, comical and other amusing situations
- Food : Sunday lunch, morning coffee, food design, food art
If this project interests you, join the group and also consider to like our page !
See you soon,
The ipernity team
EDIT : We will always respect your choice and won't force anyone to participate !
We are only posting link to Facebook and won't host your file there. You remain owner of your work.

[FR] Médias sociaux : Proposez vos photos !
Bonjour à toutes et à tous,
Comme nous vous l’avons indiqué dans notre article précédent, nous avons la volonté de nous déployer sur les réseaux sociaux à commencer par Facebook.
Pour ce faire, nous avons besoin de vous !
Nous avons créé un groupe qui vous offre l’opportunité de proposer vos photos.
Il y a toutefois quelques règles à respecter :
- Le bouton de partage doit être activé : vérifiez vos paramètres ICI
- Format : idéalement 1024 x 768 pixels; paysage; carré
- Pas de cadre (ou le plus fin possible)
- Images récentes ou populaires de vos actualités
- Idéalement sous licence CC
- Pas de nudité trop graphique, violence, voyeurisme, propos politiques
- Pas de photos d’enfant avec un visage visible/reconnaissable
Nous allons explorer des thèmes régulièrement. Voici quelques suggestions pour commencer :
- Paysages extraordinaires : indiquez le lieu de la prise de vue
- Curiosités : détaillez ou donnez au moins un indice
- Rigolotes : situations cocasses et autres sujets amusants
- Cuisine : le repas du dimanche, le café du matin, food design, food art
Si ce projet vous intéresse, rejoignez le groupe et pensez également à liker notre page !
A très bientôt,
L’équipe ipernity
EDIT : Nous respectons vos choix et ne forçons personne à participer ! Nous posterons seulement des liens sur Facebook et n'y téléchargerons pas vos fichiers. Vous restez propriétaires de votre travail.
Don't expect to have an article each week. As we already stated, we are working with a really small team which means we are dealing slowly. But we're here and open to dialogue ! :)
However, I do wonder what is happening in general with securing the long term future of ipernity and it's obvious from some of the comments posted above that I'm far from being alone in having these concerns.
At the beginning of the year there were a great many users, myself included, who came forward with ideas and suggestions on what Team Ipernity might do either on their own or working with the membership in partnership to ensure the site's long term survival.
The question I have then is what has happened to all of those ideas and suggestions?
I fully appreciate Audrey that you're few in number and can't do everything at once, but several months on from those ideas being submitted I would have thought there might have been more news or even some evidence that at least some of them were being developed, investigated, trialled or introduced.
As I said in my opening comments I do appreciate what you've done and are trying to do with regards tackling spam accounts and also the way you're trying to promote the site more through other social media.
My overriding concern though is that these initiatives on their own will not be enough to 'save' the site in the long term, which is why I'm asking if there is more being done behind the scenes that you can tell us about or more we can do to assist you?
As it's been stated in the UPTIME article, the team first decided to let ipernity "as is" for the year coming. The many support and ideas we received changed our mind !
But the reality is here : we are working with a really reduced team and we cannot fully develop for the moment. So we're trying to first fix large issues and small bugs, it takes time (lot of time). We're planning to work with some of you (IT, developers etc) on open source, again it's taking time to move and secure the operation.
So please, be patient.
And for those who are using Social Media, help us by liking, commenting, sharing post :-)
And also why Team Ipernity has stopped posting either articles or user photos on Facebook?
It seems odd that at a time when the site needs surely as much publicity as possible that you've taken this course of action.
