    Zenfolio: I'm losing patience... and SALES! -> NO cookies = NO IMAGES LOADING

    Or, as I suggested earlier, TheImageFile - they have a trial system too

    Zenfolio: I'm losing patience... and SALES! -> NO cookies = NO IMAGES LOADING

    I used to use Zenfolio and had to change due to poor image loading, the ghastly shop page and all sorts of other matters. Really frustrating. Temporarily I used ShootProof but there were no SEO capabilities which is something to consider when changing as, in fairness to Zenfolio, this did work...

    So... you want a website?

    I do event photography in the summer and have a photo printing service and sell digital files and prints from my website. I've stopped my subscription with Zenfolio and changed over to TheImageFile https://www.theimagefile.com Very happy customer so far in my first three months. Zenfolio, in...

    Equine Event photographer wanted for this Sunday

    Hope this is okay to post here! I have an equine event on Sunday 22nd April 2018 (which was only confirmed on Thursday!) and need another photographer. It's between Gloucester and Bristol so would suit someone living in that area. Only two requirement is that you have a DSLR with a 70-200mm...

    Evensong with Weeping Window - Montage

    It's 10"x8" and that's how I wanted to print it for our friend so she could take it back with her.

    Evensong with Weeping Window - Montage

    As has been shown on another thread, the poppies have reached Hereford and are on display at the cathedral. It's easy to take the camera along and photograph but something seems to make you leave the camera alone for a few minutes and just make you stand there and take it in and think what the...

    Hereford's Weeping Window

    Nice set there - I went yesterday and took a few but not looked at them properly yet. Photographically speaking the last one might not be the best but it does show the scale of the exhibit and (photographically speaking lol!) I like the way you've framed it.

    Insuring equipment - Read this first

    We use John Lewis for home insurance (about £100 for contents without the camera and no buildings as we rent) and I use Hiscox for my camera equipment (was Cliik previously till Cliik was taken over/bought) for my camera and studio/computer equipment and public liability/professional indemnity...

    Moving from Zenfolio to Wordpress

    Thank you, Peter - love comments like that! Very kind of you but there are plenty of better photographers than me. Re the new website, there are faults with Photoshoot (as there are with Zenfolio) and I don't think any provider will be 100% perfect unless one is prepared to pay probably a good...

    Moving from Zenfolio to Wordpress

    I think I might have found an alternative: Shootproof - just on a trial version I've sold more off this than Zenfolio, am paying no commission on the sales and (at the moment) the monthly subscription rate is cheaper. I had a look at Wordpress and it's not out of the question at all. Thanks...

    Moving from Zenfolio to Wordpress

    I've been a supporter of Zenfolio for 3-4 years but in recent weeks I've spent many an hour looking elsewhere. The final two straws came when they decided to charge 7% for self-fulfilling an order (I pay them an annual subscription!) and now the new shopping experience is really off-putting for...

    Washing Your Car!

    I've just booked ours in for a service and MoT - hopefully it will come back clean. If not it will have to wait another year for the next service - and possible clean.

    Washing Your Car!

    We've two cars - nothing special as they're a 54 plate 150k+ Land Cruiser and an 09 plate Mazda 2 with around 50k (at least). The latter isn't worth more than £1k max if that, but we are very fond of our land cruiser - more sentimental than monetary value. I've been reading all the posts...
