Direct Message Someone?

July 19th, 2010
I'm looking for a way to direct message someone who asked a question about a photo but there doesn't seem to be a way. Any thoughts?

Maybe comment on an old photo of theirs? I am not sure, sorry :-(

The technique I have seen is people post a message on an old photo, wait two minutes for the message to be sent via email, and then delete the message with the photo if they don't want it publically available.

A number have begun to find each other on Facebook where the message system is more sophisticated. If I'm replying here I usually put a comment on the last picture of the recipient - not ideal but better than nothing....

Either put a message on one of their pictures, or check their about me and see if they have an e-mail address, I know that I've written mine there and others might too! :)

You can use trashmail.net too if you want to drop someone your email address without actually giving them your email address

It'd be good if this was built into the website. But at the same time I wouldn't want this site to become another Facebook!

I put a message on their photo and then delete if I don't want it to be public.

My email address is on my profile so that someone can email me if they'd like.

I usually answer the question in comments of the picture in question, then I go to their picture from the same day, make a comment then reference their question and answer it again.

I do the same as Sandra.

I hope they add this to the website some day. Direct messaging would be AWESOME :)

Maybe someone should make a generic banter thread >_>

I wonder if Ross could add a new button thingy called "direct link" which sent a private email message to the person....?

Good idea, Andy! It would answer the problem of not turning 365 into another Facebook but would allow for us to message directly and allow for replies easier. There has to be a better way! =D

It would be a nice feature to add to the site for sure, I hope it happens soon

I believe Ross commented recently that something similar to this was in the works. Maybe he'll find this thread and update us?????
