So as many of you know Flickr has gone to the social media dogs. Their new interface gives me a headache and eliminates the need to actually view photos. Comments and descriptions have been moved completely to the side, and as ya'll probably know, talking to people was the best part about Flickr. I COULD get used to it, I have a Tumblr and a Facebook. But I don't want to have to. I believe that Yahoo deserves to lose customers for just springing this on us, and then not giving us the option to change back.
As a result my resin midgets and I have jumped ship. I might give Ipernity a try, it seems a good deal like the old Flickr, and many BJD people seem to be flocking there now. I'd like to stay with my friends and stay up to date with the hobby. I found out about some of my most favorite dolls through my friends interest in them. BUT... I'm wary of a flickr repeat.
I really like the idea of having MY OWN SPACE. Where I am the administrator and can control what people see and, more importantly, what I see. I want to have my dolly things all in one place. So while I may go to another image hosting site to see other dolly photos, all of my dolly stuff will be here.
