Okay!
I did a search and I looked through the threads and I know that this is being discussed SOMEWHERE (because I'm not cool enough to be the first person to start a thread about something new....), but I can't find it. So tongue

What's with the "e-mail to a friend" feature on the sets? I mean, as much as I love the fact that I just sent myself a picture of Rigel, I'm curious as to how sg is going to keep people from sending every photo from a set to their buds? I'm confused!
confused
see?

yeah... this is odd...

i mean, i sent one to myself, and i see the e-mail is a link to the photo, but is there a way to limit how many times an e-mail address is sent photos from a certain set? cause what's stopping someone from sending the entire set to a friend who isn't a member? can someone explain this feature please?

Ooh, this is so cool. I just emailed myself this:



I think it's cool that they'll allow you to send one pic. It's enough to get someone interested without giving too much away for free. It would be pretty labor intensive to email each photo from a set.

But it would probably be a lot easier for them to just save each picture and email all of them at once from their own hard drives. And they've always been able to do that.

I suppose so yeah.
I just wonder what the motivation for adding this feature is.
And hey! Those are MY boobies! wink

A link to a photo that you can see when not a member

aaah! I thought it sent a photo that you could see if you were a member or not.
But I forgot that I was still logged in when I tested it.
It would make more sense if it just sent a link that you couldn't see until you were logged in as a member.

this kind of actually reminds me of when we used to be able to send SG postcards to people. that was a pretty cool gimmick to attract new members to the site.

But that's exactly what you could already send without this feature.

This isn't actually true apparenlty. I logged out, and I could still see the lovely Rigel. smile
So yeah, new feature: send a pic (or several) from a set to your non member pals!
I still think it's a little weird.

The basic idea is that you can email a photo to a friend and they're allowed to see it without being logged in. Fear not though, we've got a system in place to prevent abuse.

Please tell me the system involves a lot of fist shaking and menacing. Or hatchets. Or menacing with hatchets.

It's in the Flash gallery viewer with all the other controls in the box in the top left. It's only there for set pics.
