I love that this fills the screen more than previous versions and eliminates having Facebook User Interface buttons ALWAYS cover parts of the image. These are changes I asked for in the feedback section of the site... YAY, they are listening! :-) Wed, 8 Feb 2012 05:29:38 +0000 http://www.allfacebook.com/photo-layout-test-2012-02#IDComment286794221 http://www.allfacebook.com/facebook-photo-tags-2011-12#IDComment242861279 I started seeing this new feature yesterday. I have lots of albums and it guessed the locations pretty accurately but I usually have something already written in the 'where' area of the album. I have one album that it's guessing a location for but I NEVER wrote where the photos were taken but it's accurately suggesting the city where they were captured. I took them with my DSLR camera (no GPS data). I'm wondering if it's guessing based on who's tagged in the photos.

However, facebook isn't all about serious photography and the black can be overpowering for some images (especially when they don't completely fill the screen). I think the black should be an option one clicks on after loading the pop-up screen. For example, the initial view would dim the background, feature the photo, but also the comments (maybe to the left of the image in a scrolling area that keeps the image in view while reading and commenting). Then if someone wants to focus on the image itself (like in Flickr) they can click on a button that will bring up the larger view on black. For loading times, I am seeing some lag. I'm on a DSL connection and with the old format, I enjoyed quickly scrolling (using the arrow keys on the keyboard) through several images. Since the I got the new format (today) I get half-loaded images when doing this and at times have to scroll past an image and come back to it before it will fully load. I haven't tried this on my netbook 10.1" netbook yet. I'm viewing from my 17" laptop with a 16:10 screen ratio. I'm also happy about this being a "lightbox" pop-over effect. However, I tend to open dozens of tabs while clicking on info from my newsfeed or updates feed, so there will still be a lot of tabs popping up on my end.

Granted, I have 1800 facebook friends (friends, people from church, clients, friends of clients, etc...) but facebook was already sorting through and showing only the top 500 in your newsfeed. There previously was an option to either "let facebook pick" or "choose who you want to see updates from". I guess this is a new version of that previous feature without it being a full-time choice.

The article is ambiguous about the specific point of "is homosexuality a sin" but my question is does that point have to be argued, debated, agreed, disagreed, or settled in order to address the injustice of mistreatment from the church toward those who are identified as GLBT? If the church is to be the body of Christ and extending the hope of the Gospel to everyone, can we do this without doing some work in removing the beam from our own eye and making amends for the wrongs that have occurred 'in Jesus name'?

I haven't been "on staff" at a church in a while, but most of the work I do is with churches and has me interfacing with staff of multiple churches. It's amazing to see how consistent the "inner world" of church offices are even if the outward worship styles (and denominations, etc) are different. These points you've made are great for a variety of churches. Thanks again!

My church regularly collects model releases for anyone who is participating / volunteering. If we're producing a video we will often do another just for that video. Events that take place in public spaces (church picnic in the public park for example) we don't collect releases for since there isn't an expectation of privacy and they are in a space that anyone could legally photograph them. I try to encourage my nonprofits to collect releases or at minimum make a notification of photo and video recording part of their sign-up / sign-in process. I find that many new (less than 10 years old) organizations simply don't know about model releases or photographers rights.

I've been subject to the same tendency to want to help wherever I can, then realizing that at certain times everyone will be calling on me at the same time and suddenly my hands are tied. Part of my drive was an issue with negative self worth - that is to say that I found worth by doing - so if I wasn't doing, then I felt worthless. My priorities (and relationships) have begun to change but only for the better (and not without difficulty)!

I shared this with one of the other worship leaders at our church and in one of her leads on Sunday she encouraged people to do the "pentecostal sway" - I almost hit the floor laughing!

This is great! Thanks for posting, I'm sharing this with a few friends. :) We have the 2 & 4 clapping conversation almost weekly.

Thanks for the great summation and recap! I was going to go, but hesitated when buying my tickets online and missed out. I'm hoping that there will be an encore. I'd seen the preview online and knew that they message of this film was going to be quite powerful! The Amos quote (from the Message) was the perfect way to open this up. Again, thanks for sharing your insights - I'm going to share these with a few friends who talked about going as well.

Steps two and four are the main steps that I have to continually focus on. I'm getting pretty good at 2, but step for sometimes gets away from me. :) Making progress though. Thanks for sharing this so clearly!

I do know we've done some brainstorming and are narrowing those ideas to choose what elements will make up the story we want to present. And our big Christmas service happens weeks before Christmas. :) Mon, 12 Oct 2009 17:48:49 +0000 http://www.collidemagazine.com/blog/index.php/1382/poll-have-you-started-working-on-christmas-yet#IDComment38375138
