Suggestion - Show random personal pics option

[Dorrena Ortega]

@Scrivna --- Ross, if you are considering adding features, would you consider a button to see a page similar to the popular page for just our own pictures? Random pictures from our project?

[J A Byrdlip]

Sounds like a variation of the Ace membership top 10, but in a PP format, perhaps?

[Dorrena Ortega]

@byrdlip --- Yeah, though not just the top ten. Random pics like the flashback.

[J A Byrdlip]

@dmortega (the programmer in me is coming out) So a PP format page within "your" project, picking and choosing "random" photos on some formula (would have to be smart enough to not repeat often), and might be an Ace membership feature(? not knowing Ross' schedule to program that). So on demand, you get a group flashback. Interesting idea.

and a way of scrolling through your months easier than it is at the moment

[Caryn]

@kmrtn6 Yes--I'd love an easier way to scroll through months.

[mark]

Maybe a yearly calender view...

[Ross S.]

@cmc1200 @markjohnstone sounds interesting! what current problems do you have going through months?

[mark]

No problems but it could speed things up a little if you have a larger thumbnail selection espesialy when you are looking for a certain photo! Or at another 365ers pics, Some accounts have quite a few pics to look at, it would be nice to be able to go right back and see there progression from the beginning instead of just skimming there latest.

[Jeff Walker]

maybe instead of going back a month at a time, have a drop down menu that allows selection of a specific month. It takes awhile to get to January from December under the current method. I do like @dmortega 's idea

[mark]

@jsw0109 Thats a much better idea than mine!

[katy]

@jsw0109 I like that idea a lot, Jeff!

[Jan Hall]

@jsw0109 Yep! that's a brilliant idea Jeff.

[Sheila]

@Scrivna I agree with Jeff on this. Either a drop down for the month, or a yearly look, similar to the monthly look. I often want to go back to a specific month and have to scroll back a month at a time. If one page showed all the months, it would be a great way to see an overall of a single photographer.

[Kathy A]

@jsw0109 @Scrivna great idea. I find it a real pain clicking back month by month.

[Megan Barrass (née Barr)]

I agree with @markjohnstone . I'd love a yearly view.

[Alicia]

I like the drop-down month idea but I also like @dmortega's idea of a random pics page of our project (or anyone's project maybe?)

[Robin]

@jsw0109 @Scrivna Great idea of Jeff's; ditto to Kathy's @kjarn comment.

[Ross Walker]

As it happens, I just had to go back to a photo from last May, and it wasn't too efficient to work backwards. I like Jeff's drop down menu suggestion.

[Jan Hall]

how about rather than a drop down menu, a calendar-type option which shows a random (changing each time you click on it) picture from each month of the project. Click on that month's picture and get all of the pictures from that month. This might get over the problem of the tiny picture size that a year in one view might present.

[Monika]

For what its worth you can navigate to any month via the browser address line.
Go to calendar view via the calendar icon. Change the last 2 digits of the address to the month that you want change eg; http://365project.org/monika64/365/2012-12 to http://365project.org/monika64/365/2012-03 and you will go straight from December to March (on mine),
much quicker than trying to scroll through months and months.

Hmmm I like the year view.... I was hunting for a shot earlier today and it was quite a few months back... further than I remembered it to be lol.
