SEARCH RESULTS FOR: new features

We’ve been fine-tuning the Workspace blog with two new features to display your photography beautifully. Now readers can enlarge your images by clicking the '+' icon in the top right hand corner. The enlarged image will fill a notepad screen or browser window up to 1600 pixels. Click the icon on Leah's photo above to see what we mean! How to: The "enlarge" feature works automatically, but if you're uploading images specifically for the blog (instead of grabbing images from an Event) don't make them too big or they'll be slow to load. 1600 To View More >>

Everyone has a story to tell, and for decades our business has been about crafting those stories into beautiful albums to remember forever. But the way we do so has been changing dramatically. Earlier this year we released Musée “for people who want only the best” – beautiful photography, discerning design and the best materials in a product that requires the highest level of artisanship to produce. Our latest project takes us into another world again. Instead of traditional photographic printing, the Queensberry Press uses digital offset technology to create – not beautiful albums, but To View More >>

All software evolves as new features are added and new versions released. Photojunction and Photoshop are no exception, and, as PJ takes advantage of more, often newer, features of Photoshop, its "backwards compatibility" with older versions is lessened. That's why we recommend that you use Photoshop CS3 or later with Photojunction. If you use CS2 or even earlier, chances are that it will work fine, but you may occasionally find that some PSD files don't import correctly as images or templates, or that you get error messages when exporting with PS scripting. If that happens, all Support can do To View More >>

We've now released v1.49 to fix a few minor issues in 1.48, but everything in this post is still current - Ed. In case you haven't noticed, we kiwis are very modest ;) Which is why I like announcing stuff that I didn't have much to do with, but I feel really good about, because I can sing its praises without feeling bad about myself! Anyway… The dev team have been busy busy today pushing out a new final release, and I think it's a really good one. They've put a lot of time and effort into refining features first released in v1.47, especially for Queensberry Press Books, but there's some juicy To View More >>

Version 1.47, builds on changes introduced in v1.46. Our main focus was on Queensberry's new press books, including fixes to the new workflow, many of them "behind the scenes" from the user point of view. We know we have a way to go with this and the developers are continuing to work on cover design issues in particular. Having said that we've introduced three new features to speed up your album design. They're still a bit "v1.0", but we wrote them in consultation with Queensberry's design team, who live and die by productivity, and we wanted to get them to you early so you could take a look and To View More >>

The new final of Photojunction will be out in a few days and it has a new feature that may affect you. First, to set the scene, our matted albums were designed to be constructed mainly of "standard" (single) sides, as opposed to panoramas. But lately we've noticed that one or two of our clients are designing with heaps of panoramas, more than the book can accommodate. This puts more thickness into the spine of the book than it's designed for, and so stresses it in various ways. For the last year or so our goal has been to make PJ smart enough to stop people from designing an album that we can't To View More >>

[caption id="attachment_4040" align="alignleft" width="226" caption="Photo by: Kamila Harris Photography"][/caption] Hi! My name is Angelique Buckley, and I am the newest member of the Photojunction Support Team. If you are an avid reader of The Junction like I am, you may have already heard of me. I've been featured on the blog four times already, and can't wait to play a bigger role in the growth of Photojunction. So a little background about me... I am a huge nerd and I love photography. Maybe that's why I fit in so well into the Queensberry team? I studied Graphic Design in school, minoring To View More >>

Psst... Photojunction's just snuck out another beta release, 1.39b! I feel like we say this every time we blog about a new release, but it's another biggie. There's way too much new PJ goodness in 1.39b to show you in one post, so keep tuned for our next series of 1.39b feature posts over the next couple of weeks. Before we go though, here's a little of what to expect in 1.39b... Work's been done to improve the Alignment features (Smart centering in particular), we've changed the way templates operate (for the better), and we've given you even more control by adding a few new features to the Preferences To View More >>

This will be our third release in three months - notice a trend? The last two were betas adding the new features you've wanted and now this final builds on them to give a stable platform to start 2010.  So to jog your memory here are a few of our favourites... Photojunction 1.32b (release notes) Alignment got some serious attention (accuracy, stickiness, and clarity) Centering got smart (wings, flips, and panoramic) "Undo" got a speed boost ('nuf said) Photojunction 1.33b (release notes) Start window got a makeover (uploads, blog, store and more) Instant Slideshow got resurrected from Retro To View More >>

We recently released the lastest final version of Photojunction 1.30 which represents plenty of new features, work and changes. You can read all about it here. A couple of days ago we quietly released another final version of Photojunction 1.31, which doesn't include any big changes, just lots of awesome little ones - and builds on version 1.30. We're happy with the progress we've made since the last final we released about 8 months ago, so now we're going to focus on keeping things simple for you during the silly season. Refinement will be our priority. Cheers, Danny To View More >>
