It seems I'm in the same position I was three and half years ago: going back and forth between ipernity and Flickr with regularity. I learned long ago that it is impossible for me to do two photosharing sites at the same time in equal measure. So, until we find out for sure what ipernity's future is, I am forced to divide my time on both sites. As a result, you may not see as much of me as you usually would.
On top of that, I am trying to save my important albums to my computer. I only wish I could save all the many kind words of praise and encouragement I have received from you over the past three and a half years here on ipernity. I learned so much about photography, and indeed, I developed my love for it thanks to wonderful photographers like you on this site!
I wish the best outcome for ipernity: that it be saved. But until we find out something one way or other about its fate, I will feel like most of you do: in "limbo".

Like you I too hope that Ipernity can be rescued, it is a Unique web site.
Valfal has replied to Stormlizard clubNot maybe practical for hundreds of photos, but it can be done and may well be an answer for specific photos. If you want to know more just ask and I'll talk you through it. I've done it already with some of mine and it's straightforward enough, but it is only one photo at a time! :)

Valfal has replied to autofantasia clubThe biggest problem with these types of photo sharing sites that encourage social interaction is relationships grow to depend on them for their sustenance. When the sites are closed down or sold to the highest bidder who then makes changes that hamper the community, it disrupts, and in many cases, destroys them, unless the community finds another suitable place to carry on its friendships. I don't think owners of these websites realize just how disruptive to the community it is when they shut them down.
One big lesson that I take away from this experience is that nothing on the internet is permanent. It's like a typical Hollywood marriage; if you can keep it going for 5-7 years, that's considered a long term relationship. If you can develop friendships that survive a social web site closure, that is considered miraculous, lol!
Valfal has replied to Peter Van LomI just cant even start saving albums. I have been saving a different site.. and others pages for the site we have been fighting for for 5 years.... I just cant go through this again.
I have the originals.... I dont know if I will stay on flickr.. I am there for now.
Stormlizard club has replied to Pam J clubI have seen mention of a method for bulk transfer that shoud, with an add on be availabe for users of Firefox, it is said to be ideal for moving complete albums at one time but of course without any comments.
Valfal has replied to Pam J clubI hope you will consider staying with Flickr if something should happen to ipernity. Many ipernity friends are there, at least.
I also have all my original photos, so that part of it isn't the issue. How the ipernity community is impacted is what concerns me now.
