Dec 05 07 09:33 pm Link TXPhotog wrote: Designing for the fact that MM disables public profiles presents me with a problem: to get around it, I can use an authenticated account. But that would, arguably, go against the reason that MM is turning this off in the first place. Dec 05 07 09:44 pm Link Still dead in the water, as MM is still blocking the public from seeing profiles...

Dec 06 07 10:18 am Link So it would appear that profiles are viewable by the public again. I hope it stays that way :-) I need to test out the banner system. The first ten models or photographers to send me a single, 486x60 banner will get it put into rotation on the site, at least for a few days. No charge. I need the banner and the URL that you want it to go to. Send both to me here or to [email protected]. No pr0n sites, please. I reserve the right to reject any banner or site for inappropriate content. If you have a banner but not a site, I can link it to your MM profile if you wish. On other topics - I've seen some proofs of the new badges. They look nice! And the new profiling system is almost done, at which time the data should have cooked long enough for me to enable some more data points and the new reporting suite (which will use some of the new badges). Then on to the next phase of features. Dec 06 07 09:48 pm Link I sent you my crappy half assed banner  Dec 06 07 10:04 pm Link So this thread is quiet and the other is locked. Bleh.

Dec 09 07 12:18 pm Link Holy crap, that was tough. The new profile system is done, and fully-integrated. Now I just have to put the fields back (including suggestions I've received) and re-integrate them into the algorithm. I hope the new data badges look good. Beta or no beta, I'm tired of the big ugly green thing.

Be patient. :-) Dec 11 07 04:40 pm Link The new badge isn't working for me. It throws errors like crazy. Edit: Working fine now! Dec 11 07 05:06 pm Link The errors with the badges y'all saw lasted about 20 minutes as I was installing the new badge system. The two new layouts are tests, of course. You'll see that they're PNGs instead of jpegs, support transparency, and you can switch your badge style now. Tyler asked that I accelerate getting the badges smaller and less... well, less UGLY, so I pushed that to the top of the list. While this is in beta, I'm pushing live code as it's ready, simply to get it out there. Once the beta is over, I'll move my team over to staging/production servers. I've got a really good graphic artist working on new designs. He says he has tons of free time right now while the writer's strike is on, so I gave him a job :-). I hope to have them by the end of the week. At least now, you can select the "White" style (intended for use on white backgrounds) which is a little smaller and less ugly. Now... 1. Allowing you to link more than one MM profile (for those with multiple profiles, or model as well as photographer profiles, etc). 2. Put back the profile data items for models and photographers and get them linked back into the algorithm. 3. Finish the bi-directional reporting capabilities for the first set of Worked-With data. At that point, the beta-one and beta-two functionality will be done, and the REAL work begins in getting the algorithm tuned and being used. And again, I'd like to thank Tyler for a really productive conversation yesterday and his cautious optimism that this will work. Dec 11 07 09:59 pm Link Interesting concept Shootnotes . I will watch and see how it devleops for now .... Dec 11 07 10:58 pm Link Digitallure Photography wrote: Threats and blackmail? Dec 11 07 11:44 pm Link chris, where have I been? I was wondering what all those funny things were in profiles this week  I joined and gratz on having the initiative to kick it off. Dec 19 07 02:57 am Link As just posted on the site: The new user subsystem has been installed. In the perfect world, you should notice no difference at all. But the subsystem allows for multiple Model Mayhem accounts and all types, not just photographer and model. I'm going to let it cook for 24 hours and then enable this new functionality. Any bugs at all, please let me know! Specifically, if anything looks wrong when looking up users, adding vouch-for or worked-with entries and especially signing up and verifying your data badge. Now, on to the expanded data points... Dec 19 07 08:46 pm Link bump bump Dec 19 07 08:50 pm Link I need a few testers. If anyone is: 1. A current ShootNotes Member 2. Has another MM account of a DIFFERENT TYPE than their current one - and by this, I mean a photographer who also has a model account or vice versa. And also... 3. Has another MM account of the SAME TYPE as their current one - a photographer with another photographer account, or a model with another model account. Please PM me. I need two or three of each (someone who is #1 and #2 as well as someone who is #1 and #3). Thanks! Dec 20 07 11:42 am Link Woah, all kinds of new stuff. Slooooowly transferring all of my vouch-for to the worked-with list... (do people who get recommended automatically get considered vouched for, or do they have to be in both lists?) One bug with the model profile-- height doesn't save. I'm betting is has something to do with the ' and " characters. Dec 20 07 03:05 pm Link Josie Nutter wrote: A Worked-With entry with "recommended" checked has a higher value in the final algorithm than a vouch. Being in both reinforces the metric, but does not add to it (that sounds contradictory but it's not). More than that, I'm not going to go into detail :-) Dec 20 07 03:27 pm Link I have a question and I'm not sure if it's been asked yet. If it has, please forgive me and my ADD.  If someone has more than one of one type of MM account, can those both be linked to one shootnotes account? Like, if you have 2 model accounts on MM......

UNTIL, I started vouching for others and they saw mine and vouched back. I also started adding to the Shot With list when I saw people on there that I've shot with. So far it's a small percentage of those I've worked with here, but it's a start. Dec 20 07 05:54 pm Link Xeris wrote: If you're on AOL, you might remain on that list. Nothing I can figure out is keeping them from clobbering the authentication cookie. Dec 20 07 05:59 pm Link Chris the Deposed King wrote: I would prefer that.. Dec 20 07 06:42 pm Link Enough members have signed up and are using the system that I was able to run the security tests earlier than expected. As such, profiles are now visible to anyone, logged-in or not. This is for the public information ONLY. Shoot Reports still require that one be logged-in to view them, but the security sweep on them will be done this week as well. Just FYI. Dec 23 07 09:39 pm Link Good initiative. My only rant is that I think the badge takes too much place on a page... I'm sure all the glitches will be taken care of soon enough... Dec 26 07 06:25 pm Link |
