In our latest beta we've been doing all the normal things like fixing bugs and tweaking the Queensberry order process but you can read about that in our release notes - I'm excited and I want to jump to our headline! Imagine being able to present your album online and get your clients' feedback and approval from directly within Photojunction. Photojunction has teamed up with albumexposure, the contagiously easy online album proofing tool. We've integrated things so you can register with albumexposure directly in Photojunction and upload your design from PJ to your albumexposure account in just To View More >>

On occasion you may need to send us new or edited files for an order, and I posted the other day about how to do this in Workspace. Here's how to do the same in Photojunction. Start at the Photojunction Welcome screen. Select the Uploads tab. Select the original upload for this order, so it's highlighted. Click the "More" button and select "Upload additional images". Photojunction will open up a new window to drag and drop your files into. You will be asked to give a reason for your upload. This just helps us to understand why we are receiving new files, or what to do with them. Once you have To View More >>

You may have read AlbumExposure's announcement that Photojunction integration with their service is about to end. Sorry to say, that day has come, with the new PJ version just released, which you can download here. We've enjoyed working with the guys at AE, and we surely wish them well, but in the end the cost of integrating and supporting AE, for pretty much no return, is unsustainable. But every Photojunction user has a great alternative, so read on for an offer to get you started... ALBUM PROOFING IN WORKSPACE Album proofing is already Workspace's most popular feature, and no wonder. 1. All To View More >>

Hello Dears We haven't spoken for an age, but the latest Photojunction release is dear to my heart, so I thought I'd put down my knitting and tell you about it. The PJ boys are very conscious that the Problem Reporter can be frustrating, so they've added a check box which, if you want to, lets you "hide" PJ's warnings (marked with yellow triangles*) so they don't show up again. Now I wouldn't ignore automatically the problem reporter, but it can be a bit bossy sometimes, so this does feel very grown up, don't you think? A bit like the first time you realised people weren't asking you for ID any To View More >>

Tweet tweet... Queensberry and Photojunction are officially on Twitter. Queensberry: @queensberrynz Photojunction: @photojunction If you're a social media maven we're there to learn, join the conversation and connect with you. We'll be tweeting and re-tweeting all sorts of things – not just our own posts and observations but anything we come across you could be interested in - like this re-tweet from a few days ago: @queensberrynz Hard-hitting article from Gary Fong - what's wrong with wedding photography today - Ian. http://ow.ly/1Hyue Plus, if you're looking for a few more (interesting) people To View More >>

Ideally I like to see the Problem Reporter empty every time I finish a design, but it isn't always, and you're probably the same. By default, any errors you can't ignore are listed first in the Reporter - the ones with the little red and white "X" against them. We can't make your album until they're corrected, so PJ won't let you send your order until they are. The items with the little yellow warning triangle you can ignore if you like. They're sorted into spacing issues, then sizing issues, and lastly alignment issues. Obviously, you want to take care of your red issues first. Complete your album To View More >>

I use the Browse Tab of the PJ Welcome screen a lot, but if you're sending orders to Queensberry the Uploads screen is also important, particularly if there happens to be a problem with your order. The screen has lots of information, so when the list of uploads gets busy you can sort (by any column), search, or filter based on status or upload date. The buttons are really important, and they change depending on the status of the upload. UPLOAD or RESUME - If the upload was interrupted or paused you'll see this. Mind you, when you booted PJ a popup would have reminded you had incomplete uploads) To View More >>

You created the perfect album. Except the size is wrong. Your clients have changed their mind. They still love the layout, but they want a different book. It isn't the ideal situation. It's actually why I prefer consulting the couple BEFORE laying out their book. Design for what they definitely want versus what you hope they will want. But alas, you're here. Stuck with the wrong size album. Thank goodness Photojunction auto-saves your albums as templates. You've just saved a ton of time! Just create a new album in the correct size (click the "+" button next to Products in the Event Window), add To View More >>

You've designed your album. You've created your exports. You're ready to upload. One key step you need to add: check your print files! Open your exports in Photoshop. Double check your alignment and image placement. Make sure the correct images are on the layouts. View them at 100%. Double check for pixelation. Are your files the correct color profile for your printer? They should be Adobe 1998 for Queensberry. Have you used our soft proof profile to double check your colour (you can download them here)? Is your monitor calibrated? If this is your first order, you are eligible for free test prints. To View More >>
