SmugMug Developement Stands Still?

Magnus

Hi Guys,

I wonder if the SmugMug developers are continuing to enhance the website. I haven't seen any new feature since I joined half a year ago.

In the feature request section there are a lot of requests open and sometimes someone drops by to tell that they are busy developing new stuff, but I never see anything.

Is there a list somewhere where you can see a history for all the updates?

I'm asking because I'm still waiting for some features that were requested by many people and promised to be checked if they could be done and I'm thinking about researching if some other image hosting website maybe already offers them / thinking about leaving.

Cheers
Magnus

I found some website: http://news.smugmug.com/

Is there any other site where you can find it in a more summarized form specialized on new features and updates? This one is cluttered with advertisement and tips and tricks articles.

Magnus

Ok, I can see now there have indeed been changes and new features. Though non of them interesting for me, what might be the reason I haven't recognized them.

Another question would be: is there a list where we can see which features are planned to be implemented? That would be most helpful for me to decide if I'm more patient and wait, or have to find some new site for me.

On our feedback page there is a spot under the feature request that says if the feature is planned.

Just yesterday we rolled out with a new feature - the ability to sell videos .

Magnus

Thanks a lot for the link!

PS: But I wonder if selling videos was a highly requested feature.

PPS: On the other hand the top request with the lab was already asked for when I joined. I wonder if they'll ever finish it.

Yup! http://feedback.smugmug.com/forums/17723-smugmug/suggestions/354950-let-us-be-able-to-sell-videos-please-open-up-the?ref=title

I see, thank you for the answer!

Then there seems to be a little hope that someday this request is fullfilled:

I'd gladly pay extra for this!

Good grief -don't tell them that!

Hey guys, just wanted to say that I really like the new notification window that notifies the user when some new feature is implemented into SmugMug!!!
