    It's good to hear that - and it's a LOT more positive than back at the start of this thread (in 2006).

    So - it only remains for me to wish you and all at SM a Happy Christmas/Happy Holiday.

    Here's hoping it will be sooner. Its been my main worry when debating between SM and other sites (or my own, which I have now).
    SM has some nice features, and I'm in for a year of pro. We'll see after that.

    We need the euro for this to be anything serious!

    And what is this about sending checks to international smugmug pros? If I go to the bank with a check here in Finland they will laugh me out! I remember my mother used checks in the 1970's - after that we have not seen them.

    I agree!

    We're going to pay international pros electronically in 2011.

    Thanks,

    Only that we're absolutely not ignoring this. LOTS is happening on this but I won't get into details until we're further along. Thanks.

    True !

    Still looking forward to a few of the relevant Uservoice items reaching 'Planned' status - then I'll really start believing mwink.gif

    I think Andy's been pretty clear that the uservoice site doesn't actually reflect what Smugmug are working on. The only thing you can rely on (it seems) is that some stuff will be released at some stage, and you'll know about it when it's released.

    Cheers - N

    Well, he said in an earlier reply to me that the status would be updated to 'planned' when it was getting closer to release.

    That reply, of course, gives no indication of when the status might actually be updated, or the changes delivered.

    Hm, I'm not sure I've said that - what it is, is a very good way for us to hear from customers about what they want. It's one of 4 major sources of input we get, along with Dgrin, Our Help Desk, and social sites (Facebook & Twitter).

    The input is VERY IMPORTANT, but we won't always mark something as "planned" or "underway" or even comment on some things on our feedback site - it's a public site, and we're a business - we do aim for transparency on many things but we don't lay out our product plans for the world to see :D

    If you won't always mark something as "planned" or "underway", why bother to even have the indicators in the first place.
    It appears that the uservoice is a pacifier. When someone suggests something in the forum the response is "add it to the uservoice". Where the idea sits and sits and sits.... with no indication of whether the item has even been considered, none the less being worked on. I find that frustrating. As for business, many other sights offer foreign currency already. Once again this is no big secret!
    I digress, just let me know if and when the foreign currency issue is in place.
    I am not bothering to go look at the uservoice to find out if or when it will be worked on.

    Thanks for your passionate feedback, we really appreciate it thumb.gif

    To add to my frustration I just got 2 emails.....1st (2:08pm) say this Foreign currency went from NO STATUS to PLANNED and the 2nd email (2:46pm) now states it went from PLANNED back to NO STATUS....all in 38 minutes .....so it is planned or is it actually back to NO STATUS??????....where it has been for over 5yrs.......

    Sorry for the feedback forum glitch. It's at no status. But it's something that I hope we'll have some news on soon enough.

    That's a shame, I was coming out of lurking for I don't know how long to celebrate that e-mail! Just in case you were wondering...

    I count myself a very happy customer, but you should really get on this one! And thanks for listening!

    ....... this is getting ridiculous. I've been losing so much money from this! My account is up for renewal soon though so see if anything changes before then. This and lack of international labs is easily out weighing the benefits that's smugmug has over other sites.

    And to be clear, since this thread has many requests in it, I'm talking about Foreign Currency Transactions.

    Yup, more to come, too!
