Well, we made Photojunction free ... now what?
After yesterday's new final we're finalising the development schedule for the next few months.
It's always been our goal to make Photojunction the software of choice for wedding and portrait photographers, and we really appreciate the support we get from the thousands of photographers who use it.
But we do also recognise that there are four areas where people struggle, or where we can see strong opportunities for improvement.
1, While most people fly through the set up procedure, some people struggle. Maybe it doesn't work as they expect, and therefore the task looks a little overwhelming. Our goal is to make getting started really easy and straight forward.
2, Some people think of Photojunction as a tool for matted albums, and although it does a brilliant job of laying out digital albums we recognise that there are some cool things we could do to make it both more obvious and even more powerful.
3, Once the album is complete, some people get overwhelmed with "what next?" – how to export, how to order, how to FTP their files. This area will get an overhaul in the next few months to make it very simple and straight forward.
4, We anxiously want to retire Photojunction Retro but realise there is still functionality that Remix doesn't have, eg the portrait and proof sheet modules.
So our question is, what next?
If you use other portrait sales software such as Pro Select what do you love about it? We want to bring this functionality forward from Retro ... but only if it's world class.
Are there things not on the list above that you think are more urgent?
If you prefer other template software, what is it that you think we could do better?
Again, thanks so much for your support so far. Tell your friends we've started a discussion here on Facebook about how to make Photojunction even better. We hope you'll contribute, we'd love your opinion.
Cheers, Stephen

Please add in the old portrait functions. This is the only reason i have not uploaded new version. Also i feel the new version is a little harder to get around - but i could work that out in time i imagine.
Love and light,
liz

How about a raw file browser. Choose the file, place it, open in photoshop for processing, replace and done! All you need is a link into quickbooks for the billing and you're done!
