Dear Flickr friends, We have had and are still having many of you massively importing your photos all at the same time. This may cause delays in processing your photos due to upload congestion. Don't worry, the importing script works fine if any of you are wondering about that. Your uploaded photos are queued and will all be delivered. Please do not relaunch the importing script for the same range of photos. Our technical team is doing its best to optimize the delay. In the m…

[EN] Dear members and friends of ipernity! The problem with the PayPal module will be solved on Monday. It is an example of the problems that can occur when the operating software is not updated for 5 years. In this case security and encryption algorithms were out of date. It was our new IT service partner innovations ON who identified this as the cause of the error. So it was not any fault or bug in the ipernity software. Today, 1 July, we went through all the steps required to upda…

[EN] Dear members and friends of ipernity! Since the last newsflash on 26 January 2018 the topics of copyright and intellectual property policies have arisen. As a friendly reminder to all, based on Section 6 of the Terms of Service (TOS) , ima/ipernity honors copyright, trademark, and intellectual property protection requirements as stipulated under French law and other intellectual property laws. To avoid innocent mistakes or potential misunderstandings we ask that going for…

Dear members of ipernity! If e-mails sent by ipernity do not arrive, it is because they get caught in the spam filters of the receiving e-mail providers. These always first monitor whether the sender's IP address is on a public blacklist. A check of the ipernity domain 217.70.184.38 using the mxtoolbox.com/blacklists.aspx tool has shown that ipernity is not included in any of those blacklists. Mails from ipernity will therefore always arrive at your mail provider. But mail providers a…

[EN] Dear members and friends of ipernity! Today, we would like to address two topics that have been of great interest to you in recent discussions. 1) Being responsible for a balanced budget, the ima team is not allowed to spend money that is not in the bank. Therefore, we cannot assign any more software development orders in 2018. In the short term, it's not possible to integrate a display of individual memory consumption or a donation button into the website, nor to fix any bugs. A…

[EN] Dear friends Just to let you know that we are currently moving our technical platform to a new and powerful cloud. This is an important step to make ipernity faster and more scalable. We could not wait anymore, so this project started on September and will last until mid-December. In the mean time, bug fixing had to be interrupted. That's the reason why some known problems still occur (black videos, private thumbs in news pages, Picasa uploading...). But be sure they will be fixed as…

Manifeste pour la reprogrammation d'ipernity ./. Manifest zur Neuprogrammierung von ipernity ./. As we all know, it is imperative to have the ipernity website reprogrammed from scratch as soon as possible. The necessary adaptations of this website that is ten years old, both in conception and technology, to be technically up to date are getting more and more difficult and expensive. This reprogramming does not focus on changing functionality or design, but on improving the technical basis in order to reduce costs and improve operational reliability. In view of increasing security requirements, the website must also be SSL-encrypted as quickly as possible. In view of changing user habits, it must be better adapted to mobile devices. Of course, the opportunity can also be used to consider long-cherished wishes if they are affordable.
