Improved “Avanquest Send Photos 2″ Software

Just a few days back I have found that the people from Avanquest improvised their web application: SendPhotos 2. What’s this? Well is a free photo sharing solution

So what’s so special about this application? Well the most important of all, it has certified support for more than 160 telephones, including iPhone and Blackberry, followed by other features as :

• complete revision of the Web client interface
• the acceptance of the iPhone
• the creation of a plug-in for iPhoto
• management of the leading social networks including Facebook, MySpace and Picasa.

The Avanquest SendPhotos photo-sharing web site, now available in the free public Beta 2 version, lets users to shares their photos with friends and family trough the web browser either from PC or Mac, with increased security, due to fact that the photos are completely private, hidden from search engines. Also they offer 1 GB of free space, meaning you can put as close as 1000 images close to a size of 1 mb per photograph, in which you can also store safely your precious photographs.

Bottom line: although this is excellent for people to store photos from their phone, I am not very impressed  for it to be an amazing photo-storing or even sharing solution. But I have to admit that I really like the design and functionality of the web site.

First of the Many Gallery Participations to Come

Yesterday I went to the opening of a gallery where three photographs of mine, previously chosen, were exposed. I was pretty amazed of how many people in my city are interested of photography. Also I met other photographs and exchanged some experiences we had. I found out and learned new things from them.

I felt pretty happy and proud when I was asked different questions about my exposed photographs or when I was told that my work is pretty good. Also there were people interested to buy my work, which I wasn’t expecting.

At the end there were some beautiful speeches by some important people (from the art point of view), and also by my current professor from the School of Photographic Art. Me and some other photographers, each received a diploma for the selection of our photographs to be put in the gallery.

Overall there was a beautiful experience and there is no doubt that I will repeat it, with other more beautiful photographs to impress people that love and understand photography as art.

You can check some photographs from the opening of the gallery at my FlickR account.
