If you haven't been to the Photojunction website or blog lately, you won't recognise them. What's going on? Well, the old PJ site had to go, for several reasons. • Danny was embarrassed by it (me too). • PJ has changed so fast that a lot of the support info was out of date. • There's a bit of misinformation out there (I'll get to that). • And it's high time we came out of the closet… So here's the story: In case you don't know, Photojunction is a Queensberry project. It dates back ten years to when we first realised that any album supplier without a software solution was history (we To View More >>

.. that you are selling to? I read Ian's post yesterday and thought he had some really good points, but I wanted to add to the discussion by drilling down another layer to ask, "Who is the man you are selling to?" Here are a few possibilities and I am sure you are easily able to add more (so feel free to contribute your thoughts): 1 The besot - hopelessly in love and a cinch for a big album. 2 The control freak - Needs to believe that they have choices.

Photojunction also harnesses the power of Photoshop for you during the export stage of the workflow, when you can open and edit exported page layouts in Photoshop from within Photojunction, just as you did the original image files.

You, the photographer, are entrusted with telling the story of a couple's day ... not any old day ... it's the BIG one.

Each version of Photojunction takes us further towards a seamless workflow to design, export and upload your album orders to Queensberry - right first time and hassle-free. And it works amazingly. What we're still noticing however, is a small number of people using LabFTP to send, or re-send, their layouts to us. This is now built into Photojunction (including the ability to re-send "part-uploads" for whatever reason), so there's no longer any need to use LabFTP. Photojunction does it all. You can still see your upload progress, and pause and restart uploads just as in LabFTP. And the advantage To View More >>
