 ping : I can assure you US$20 buys you PLENTY of groceries from the local vegetable market. About 3 weeks' worth for me. Just a little perspective. vor 5 Monate [Web]
 ping : Not to debate the value of a Pro-account (hey Kris, you know I donated my share way back right?), but as someone working in a developing country... vor 5 Monate [Web]
 Phil : of $20 dollars in 3rd world countries. vor 5 Monate [Web]
 Phil : Anyway, I'm not complaining. When my complimentary Pro status expires, I will enjoy the great free service. I guess people just don't know the value vor 5 Monate [Web]
 Carlos : skip, spot on, but that's the beauty of the zipline! vor 5 Monate [Web]
 slowdncr : ... and here it's morphed into a debate on a meager fee and foreign exchange rates that's clogging the pictures... vor 5 Monate [Web]
 Phil : Whoa, hold your horses guys! It's not a complaint, it was a suggestion. So you'd rather me use 3rd world countries than developing nations? vor 5 Monate [Web]
 ghanit : @TravelingRoths: I would come, but the flight is still quite expensive! ;) although, I'll buy my camera gear overseas! :) vor 5 Monate [Web]
 slowdncr : It's interesting how this thread started as a complaint at how Zipline chatter clogs up the placement of posted photos... vor 5 Monate [Web]
 thorix : I did :-D €13,— vor 5 Monate [Web]
 Carlos : I think we are already doing that :D, remember henrikj camera purchase craze! vor 5 Monate [Web]
 Wolfman-K : And honestly what nation has stopped developing? ;) vor 5 Monate [Zipfox]
 TravelingRoths : Esp with the dollar being so weak. That being said, all you non-US Zooomrers should come spend your tourist money here. We'd appreciate it. vor 5 Monate [Web]
 Carlos : and even in developing nations $20 is not high... get real please! vor 5 Monate [Web]
 ghanit : beer, cigarette, long phone calls etc.!) so, If it is still too expensive, shut up and enjoy that you got unlimited space for FREE!!! vor 5 Monate [Web]
 ghanit : you can't even buy a coffee in restaurant with that! So, think about where you did spend $1.66 last month that were not this important (like coffee, vor 5 Monate [Web]
 ghanit : c'mon people! stop complaining! $20 is very little for running a service like this one! and it is $20 a year, that makes $1.66 a month! In my country vor 5 Monate [Web]
 Phil : May I suggest that the $20 fee for going Pro should be lowered in developing countries? vor 5 Monate [Web]
 Ben Dan Hawks : Luxuries... they make the experience worth the price. :/ Having said that, I fill my Cadillac with low grade. vor 5 Monate [Web]
 jenifer : i look at $20 as an investment in something wonderful in progress. & really, i spend more on coffee in a week. it's worth it. vor 5 Monate [Web]
 Gary H : A couple of things about zipline. It's supposed to be short. Blogs are for longer posts. It's supposed to be social (it is), and you can edit settings vor 5 Monate [Web]
 ghanit : I think you can spend $20 much much worse than on Zooomr! vor 5 Monate [Web]
 ghanit : Ben! go pro! you won't be disappointed! :) vor 5 Monate [Web]
 kristopher : I don't know, I think it's worth it. For $20, you get a whole lot more than just S.S. and you get the satisfaction knowing you're supporting Zooomr! vor 5 Monate [Web]
 Ben Dan Hawks : Needing funds to keep running is understandable. I know it must be hard and stressful, but the old recent activity was such a great basic feature. vor 5 Monate [Web]
 Ben Dan Hawks : The new and improved feature was brilliantly marketed, but I'm not falling for that. My $20 is better spent elsewhere. vor 5 Monate [Web]
 kristopher : Ben, sorry. We have to make money to keep the site running. Uploading is unlimited, so we have to make-up for it elsewhere. My apologizes. vor 5 Monate [Web]
 Ben Dan Hawks : Sorry, this feature is Pro-Only! At the low price of $19.95 USD a year, you can experience more of Zooomr! vor 5 Monate [Web]
 Celine C : Kristopher: Ben isn't pro, so he doesn't get access to Social Stream. vor 5 Monate [Zipfox]
 homestar14 : Although the character limit could be bumped up a little, it shouldn't be much more as Zipline is meant for smaller comments and such. vor 5 Monate [Zipfox]
 Thomas Hawk : I like Zipline. :) vor 5 Monate [Web]
 kristopher : ben, what are you talking about? Our "Recent Activity" feature is called Social Stream: http://zooomr.com/socialstream/ vor 5 Monate [Web]
 Ben Dan Hawks : I hate the 150 character limit, that it is an awkward interface, yet so big and celebrated, and I somehow have no bloody recent activity after a year. vor 5 Monate [Web]
 slowdncr : I had to debate as to whether I should reply to this - lest I contribute to the clogging up of Zipline, but I'm with you, bear 11 and John. vor 5 Monate [Web]
 John : less talking more shooting =P vor 5 Monate [Web]
 bear11 : True. Just (potentially) understanding Ben's "hate" of it. :) And now, I'll shush. vor 5 Monate [Web]
 John : I suppose, but I'd blame that more on chatty people than zipline itself. vor 5 Monate [Web]
 bear11 : Right, but when there are multiple converstaions going, like right now, the front page tends to be all text. vor 5 Monate [Web]
 John : @bear11: that shouldn't happen anymore - each conversation should only show the last 10 or so posts, unless Kris changed that again. vor 5 Monate [Web]
 bear11 : It's love hate for me. I do prefer to see the photos and when the chatter gets to long the photos constantly get pushed to the 2nd page... vor 5 Monate [Web]
 ghanit : I love it too! =) vor 5 Monate [Web]
 Carlos : what do you hate about it? i don't love it 100% as it is hard to follow but must admit that it serves its purpose absolutely well! vor 5 Monate [Web]
