Beta feedback : Completed / Top ideas / Hot ideas

---------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------

Beta is a test preview of the change that is getting ready to be implemented soon. It can be for a limited group of flickr members, intended to seek feedback and correct faults ( if any), before it is made public.

Change is good and public has always welcomed good changes. The preference for Windows XP by most people even after the introduction of Vista is a classic example of public acceptance. The public liked and preferred the predecessor ( Windows XP ) and the follower ( Windows 7 and Windows 8 ) versions of Vista. A change is good and often gladly welcomed by public, if it provides more utilities and user friendliness, without depriving even a single advantage of the predecessor.

The Beta version is unacceptable to the majority of Flickr users* ( who happened to experience it ) , because it's not user friendly and has only disadvantages to mention. *Please check the Beta feedback : Completed / Top ideas / Hot ideas

The layout itself is a disaster. Please check : Try our new photo experience beta / Comment box

However they try, it's quite evident that it's impossible to provide more space for descriptions, comment box, and comments; not to mention comments with pictures , group invites / awards. The more they try to fix it, the more cumbersome it becomes. The buddy icons now appear as dots making the page more unaesthetic than what you see in the earlier pictures of beta . They are desperately trying to make it appealing and user friendly, which is literally impossible with the proposed layout .

It's a big challenge for the programmers to try find means to provide more space in a vertical column which is already cramped.

Is it possible to make a rugby stadium inside a 100 square feet ground ?

Lunes nueve de Marzo, 2015, sueño. by Izarbe Murillo

Demasiado.

Hoy me ha hecho sonreír: pararme a pensar en las distintas formas que tenemos de ver nuestras luces internas y expresar algo con ellas. Cuando las vemos proyectadas en un cielo casi pintado a pincel, o brocha gorda. Cada uno como quiera y como guste de hacerlo. Y las compartimos. Y son el mismo, las mismas y a la misma hora, qué otra si no. Y a la vez todas distintas. Yo rojo, o rosa o azul, yo amarillo con un árbol, yo violeta con naranja y una sombra de perfil, yo un mar, tú hasta el barco.

Hoy me ha hecho sonreír: encontrar un elefante en mi archivo olvidado que saluda con la trompa estirada y nos dice que soñemos mucho más. Que en el cielo no está el límite si no quieres ponértelo. Hoy me he enamorado de ese elefante que vuela y desaparece al instante. Con la tropa encogida por esa sonrisa que te dedica. Mientras vuelve a ser nada. Y algún tipo de ave migratoria nos recuerda que allá donde queramos debemos intentar llegar. Que lo mejor, siempre, es el camino.

Felices sean las noches positivas. Después de días tan negros y grises como el que ha sido hoy, aún más. Mua.

Some results of the Plantin Instituut voor Typografie / Plantin Institute of Typography Expert Class Type Design 2010 – 2011 by Frank Blokland in Antwerp, Belgium. Picture is part of Frank Blokland's design for a poster as an invitation to the exhibition at the Plantin Moretus Museum this September. Text and images by the participants – click "notes" for links.

Opening September 10, 12:00h.

My contribution is second row second column. As it was meant as a body text face, and I do not believe too much in typographical detail anyway, It has a clear rhythm, supported by the seris. I show a text sample: left part without any kerning, right part (partim) with "optical kerning" in InDesign. More on the evolution to this typeface on this Flickr set. Maybe listen to some music at it .

It's very much a Balinese habit to provide what the people want, at a sensible mark-up. :-)

As the years go by, and more of the genuine antiques from this part of the world have been exported... there's always a good market for imitation.

The day I took this photo I saw some women on the side of the road hosing down new statues and 'distressing' them with hard brushes, but also stacks of statues and carvings of different types that had fallen out of fashion and were just left to rot outside.

It's that mismatch again, where local labour is very cheap, especially compared to the availability of time and focus from tourists.

That's not to say there aren't genuine items to be found, but it takes some digging.

My last hospital ID bracelet ... by Katharine Hanna

40 21

Today (10/28/15) I had a procedure (at Mission Hospital in Asheville NC) to remove a filter that had been placed in the inferior vena cava (IVC) vein after I had a pulmonary embolism on June 26, 2015. This was the second attempt to remove it; both attempts were unsuccessful. The doc today said he could get it out, but since it had migrated from the IVC to a neighboring vein in which it was now embedded, forcing a removal would risk damaging the vein. Stressful, especially since before the first attempt one week ago, I was given two sedatives, one a narcotic, that knocked me for a loop; it took almost a week to recover. Today, thank God, they used only Lidocaine at the site in my neck where the instruments intended to remove the filter were inserted. So, I'm now the bionic woman with an IVC filter for the remainder of this lifetime. I came home and ate 2 cups of ice cream and 17 ginger snaps! I've resolved not to enter the hospital again for any reason.
