but why don't you have a 'mechanism' in place to 'take site down with previous advice to members' then NEVER WORRY about very bad changes and crashing? Why didn't someone from tabblo post on a 'geek board' somewhre what was happening as it HAPPENED....(I know you're not 'myspace' but isn't there some way to advise the'site will be down for maintenace between 'x' and 'y' hours? just wondering how to avoid in future as apparently this happened earlier this year on march/may?...thx for your response Ned tho your technical explanation wouldn't have bored me lol....Patty

ALL I KNOW IF THAT IT WENT DOWN IN MIDDLE OF CREATING A TAB....STARTED TO 'FUDGE' ON TOOLS........THEN BOOOM!!! AND DOWN FOR THE COUNT FOR MINIMUM 8 HOURS...(FINALLY WENT TO BED SO NO IDEA HOW LONG YOU WERE REALLY DOWN!) am wondering why theres' no mention of it in this FORUM EITHER..........Thanks for your reponse Eric , Ned or Antonio. PMC
Ned said at 4:47 p.m. on Sep 21, 2008:
Sorry for the inconvenience and the confusion. I won't bore you with the technical details, but we made some changes that were very bad, and it took us way too long to recover from them. The site should be better now.
Terriculture said at 8:55 p.m. on Oct 14, 2008:
My 'feature' this tabblo is not working anymore. I don't understand why it's not working, Please explain. My recent tabblos from this year have disapeared from the groups I have created or joined. Any explanation would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

I see how you can create a badge for use on your blog, directing people to your list of tabblos. But, I want to put a link in my signature in the many forums that I participate in. Many of them don't let you have graphical badges. Am I just not seeing how to make that link? Holly

The new multi file uploader is useless with iPhoto created by Govardha on Aug 24, 2008:
|
Govardha said at 9:26 a.m. on Aug 24, 2008:
Unfortunately ever since HP took over Tabblo, they seem to go out of their way to make the site as user unfriendly as possible for Mac users. First the iPhoto uploader was dropped, now the new uploader. With the old uploader, I was able to use the finder to select Media and pick the iphoto albums directly and all photos in it and upload it one shot. With this new uploader, you guys are trying to recreate the finder, but without the media options. I really wish HP paid a bit more attention to Mac users. Oh well, time to start investigating other options. G
Memotions said at 3:14 p.m. on Sep 1, 2008:
I've found it easier to drag the photos I want to upload to my desktop. I agree, you have to hunt around too much to find your photos in iPhoto. Patty
Ericf said at 9:19 a.m. on Sep 3, 2008:
We've got a few Mac users in our group here so even though we're part of HP we still keep all platforms in mind when we roll stuff out. iPhoto is a great tool just like Picasa and the other methods we used to support. The problem was finding the engineering time to write new code every time each one of these pieces of software was updated by their developer, which was often. The tool we're using now works with every platform, is pretty easy to understand and it's robust. If you've got any suggestions on how to improve it I'd be happy to report them.

Is that a new photo uploader I see? ... If It isn't than I've been missing something! It looks Good! I can even access my iPhoto files, which I don't believe I could before. Very cool! ... There is a bit of a bug though, the browsing window looks like it has one of those resizing bumps but it doesn't resize, and that would be very good to have since as you open folders the width of what you need gets wider and wider. ... Very cool though guys! Kudos! :)
Lifequest22 said at 8:39 p.m. on Jul 24, 2008:
Dar-thanks for your discovery. It's works great. I was able to adjust the size of the browsing pane on mine. The entire process was quick. Thanks, Tabblo.

How do I view images in the blog page if the user posts an image along with the blog only the text gets printed and the image is not getting printed

I'm not sure if I completely understand what you're asking. Can you please post a link to an example of what you're referring to? If you would like to ask me directly feel free to click any "contact us" link at the bottom of every page.

sharing with flauntr.com? created by PaulBarfoot on Jun 26, 2008:
|
PaulBarfoot said at 3:05 p.m. on Jun 26, 2008:
I have been using flauntr to edit pictures and they have lots of choices for uploading and downloading but tabblo isn't one of them. I think it would be a good match. Where would a decision like that be made - by tabblo or flauntr?
Ericf said at 3:10 p.m. on Jun 26, 2008:
It would be made by both parties. It's something I'm happy to bring up at our engineering meeting. We've actually dropped focus from 3rd party integrations and focused on providing a durable and consistent uploader, which seems to work pretty well for most folks. Thanks for the suggestion!
PaulBarfoot said at 3:13 p.m. on Jun 26, 2008:
Thanks Eric. Have I mentioned how much I love tabblo? The new editing tools, after the initial bugs were worked out, are great but best of all is the community of people (including staff)!

Why doesn't the spell checker know tabblo? created November 5, 2006 created by JeffS created by Pattymaryclare on Jun 20, 2008:

Pattymaryclare said at 2:21 a.m. on Jun 20, 2008:
Pattymaryclare said at 1:52 a.m. on Jun 20, 2008: JUST SEARCHED ON URBAN DICTIONARY: 'tabblo isn't defined yet.' THIS JUST SUBMITTED AND AWAITING 'VERIFICATION': tabblo A tabblo is a story told with photographs, title, text, quotations and a layout format of your choosing for the Internet. Derived from the word: tab¡¤leau (tab¡äl¨¡ä, ta bl¨¡ä) noun pl. -¡¤leaux¡ä-l¨z¡ä, -bl¨z¡ä or -¡¤leaus 1. a striking, dramatic scene or picture Eample in sentences: I made a tabblo composed of photographs I took, then added captions, some text and a title plus a meaninful quotation. Then I picked the nicest colors for the background and title colors and invited my friends and family to view my 'Talking Trees' tabblo on the Internet. IT VERY WELL MAY SOON BE!! AN 'official word' Antonio! We shall see! ~pmc

NOTIFICATIONS created by YorkJodi on Jun 6, 2008:
|
YorkJodi said at 7:43 a.m. on Jun 6, 2008:
I can't believe that I am the only person who is NOT getting notifications... I can live with searching for the new tabblos that I never get told about... But it is frustrating!! I can't live with never knowing when someone comments on my tabblos... I can't keep checking them all... I check the newer ones periodically but I have over 100 to be checking. One of the fun things about Tabblo was getting comments from people on my photos & tabblos... I heard from another gal yesterday that she is no longer getting notified either... the problem just started for her... it's been going on since the end of April for me... PLEASE do something about this... or tell me what to do... HELP!!! And if YOU are also not getting notified... write Tabblo & complain...
Saulblum said at 9:35 p.m. on Jun 7, 2008:
Maybe there's some problem with your mail provider, where Tabblo e-mails are suddenly being rejected? (For example, a spam filter could be catching them.) Do you have another e-mail account you could try setting as your Tabblo address and see if that one works?
Marcif said at 12:52 a.m. on Jun 8, 2008:
I had that same problem. I discovered all my Tabblo notifications were going to my spam filter. I think I noted the problem on here, but then it stopped happening all of a sudden. I wish I had an answer for you
YorkJodi said at 12:42 p.m. on Jun 8, 2008:
I have a "Junk" folder... they are not going there... I don't know how to check anything else... but have never had this problem with Hotmail before... not until the end of April... so it was fine for 6 weeks. People are disappearing from my circle too... and I have to add them again. I don't have another e-mail address... don't really want one... but... IF that's the only way to fix this... then maybe I'll have to do that. Thanks!! At least SOMEONE finally replied to my frustrations!!!

New Lightbox created by AliDar on May 29, 2008:
|
AliDar said at 12:37 p.m. on May 29, 2008:
Just wanted to tell you that I like the tabbed lightbox better than the old one. I was a bit worried about it because of a few posts I've read about how you can no longer drag and drop your photos into it like before, but I found that once you've added a photo to it, and you're working on a tabblo, the photo stays available to you until you finish. If you click on the trash icon, on the side of the photo, the photo is put back into the lightbox, and that's a lot easier to do than trying to maneuver it back in with your cursor.
Saulblum said at 11:53 p.m. on Jun 1, 2008:
I especially like the new "Advanced" tab! Thanks, Tabblo developers, for listening to your users' feedback and for improving the interface also.

Hi, In the past I had the ability to change the size of teh grid and to freely lay the images on the page. With the new edit tools I don't see where can I change the grid size to make ut much smaller and to freely lay the images so they can overlap. Any idea if I am missing somthing? Erez.

Dear tabblo expensive keeper, I think, innovation on May 13 with the new mode of operation editing not quite happily. Of the section LAYERS disappeared many functions, which can incorporate some interesting results. Inability to select COLOR also restricts my creative ideas. Perhaps, you improve the new editing mode? Regards, Denis
Spilly0901 said at 10:04 a.m. on May 14, 2008:
I like the toolbar concept, but color choices need to come back! Personally, I like being able to pick my background colors, as I'm sure may others do to! Hopefully, this is only temporary with the new hardware changes.
Saulblum said at 10:37 a.m. on May 14, 2008:
Click on the STYLE tab at the bottom and then click on "Customize a style", to choose fonts and colors.

I found and like he custom colors, with the slider, AND the fact you can cange the font and size of your titles...THE ONE THING i would add..is just bring back the fine grid. It makes it easier to put text in and make your pics fit nicely...i ALWAYS used fine grid.

Editing my tabblo's ! created by Emmabro on Apr 30, 2008:

Emmabro said at 12:10 p.m. on Apr 30, 2008:
hi ... can some one explain how i can get long photo's in my tabblo and also how do i get one picture in 3 different squares/oblongs ? i hope no one is going DOH at me ;-) XxEm
OTMBOOKSTORE said at 8:28 p.m. on May 3, 2008:
Emmabro, I find to get a long photo into a Tabblo is to create the size proportional to the image you want to create and at a high resolution. I will share a poster I made with a large image. To create one photo in 3 different areas requires the same technique, a simple way to accoomplish the separate images is to upload the same photo with different names. Goox luck...Patrick, OTM BOOKS
Emmabro said at 5:56 p.m. on May 7, 2008:
Patrick thanks for the help ...I'll give it a go !!! still sounds a bit above my intelligence :-) oh well nothing ventured nothing gained hee hee XxEm

Full page size for soft book created by Kevinb5 on Apr 18, 2008:
|
Kevinb5 said at 9:48 p.m. on Apr 18, 2008:
I want to make full-page photos in Photoshop to add to a soft book. What dimensions (ratio) should I make my new file?
Ericf said at 3:44 p.m. on Apr 21, 2008:
We have a "full" page format with will render a photo as full bleed onto the page. I recommend using the highest resolution image file as possible.
Kevinb5 said at 4:28 p.m. on Apr 21, 2008:
I will certainly make it full resolution, but I want to make it the same dimensions as the page in the book. If I make it a different dimension than the page (say, 8x10 vs. 7x9), I'm afraid it will crop some side off. Do I just make my image the same dimension as the book itself?
Ericf said at 10:41 a.m. on Apr 23, 2008:
I would make them 7x9 and use the full bleed formatting on each page that you want full coverage. You can always view the PDF of the book to get a rough idea of the borders.

Flickr issues?? created by JeroldsSis on Apr 16, 2008:

JeroldsSis said at 12:28 p.m. on Apr 16, 2008:
I tried uploading pictures from Flickr but the only thing that showed up was an empty box with that ever-popular little red X in the upper left hand corner. I tried it two times using two different browsers but it still wouldn't work. I then uploaded the picture directly from my pictures on my computer and it worked fine. Is there a glitch with Flickr?

Hi! Some of you international Tabblo users may share with me the frustration of not being able to order Tabblo products to your home. Yesterday I received a delivery from Tabblo right to my door and here's how: I used the services of www.shopusa.comThey specialize in receiving orders that can only be shipped within the US and delivering them internationally. If they have a branch in your country then they can help you. I don't know how widely they have branched out but they have an office in Iceland so I'm pretty sure they have presence almost everywhere! Hope that helps, :) MD

Zoom and Resize Questions created by Burmashave on Apr 14, 2008:
|
Burmashave said at 11:41 a.m. on Apr 14, 2008:
I have grepped about the site; however, I haven't found an answer regarding the relationship between zooming a photo and viewing it in the finished tabblo. Specifically, I want to make tiled tabblo's in which I take part of a photo, crop it and zoom in on just one part so that the tiled photo becomes just an interesting part of the "full" sized photo when viewed. This is the behavior I am experiencing: - Use any zoom level within resolution of the original photo - "Crop" the photo to show only part of the original - User sees only cropped/zoomed portion when selecting photo in tabblo. On the other hand, if I only crop the photo, the user sees the entire original when selecting the tiled photo in the tabblo. Interestingly, when selecting "Properties" of the image, it seems that the entire original is always displayed, regardless of crop and zoom. Is there a way to use the zoom tool so that the user is always presented with the full image when selecting images from the tabblo? I've made a demonstration on the tabblo on which I am currently working: http://www.tabblo.com/studio/stories/view/1418294/Scroll to the very bottom and there are 2 tiles made from the same image. What I wish to do is to have them display identically when clicked on. Also, is there a way to set "Best fit for my screen" as the default for all viewers?
Burmashave said at 5:32 p.m. on Apr 17, 2008:
Oh well, I'll just go ahead and publish as is, although the finished product is not at all what I want. It's too bad. I like the concept of Tabblo; however, it just doesn't work for me in practice, and I *have* tried to make it work. I may do my next "tableaux" by hand (HTML tables, mapped images, etc.) and publish it myself. I think that says something, given the time and effort it takes to make a similar set of arranged images with links to originals.
Burmashave said at 10:35 a.m. on Apr 21, 2008:
Hey, thanks for all the replies! I'll make sure to recommend Tabblo to all my friends.

Congratulations on the Flickr deal created by LatentE on Apr 8, 2008:
|
LatentE said at 2:00 p.m. on Apr 8, 2008:
I see that Flickr is offering "New" printing services through HP and Tabblo with picture books and cubes, etc. Congrats. Hopefully that means there will be some increase in revenue for all involved. The Flickr printing agreement seems a bit onerous, requiring access to "private" images. The wording could have been better. "Access to your photos (including private photos)." How can you print an image if you can't access it? They should probably just have an image tag for printing for those that have images they are concerned about the privacy of. Maybe a "double super secret" private tag? Could this, an anticipated jump in demand, be is the reason for the tabblo.com switch over to HP servers?
Ericf said at 2:20 p.m. on Apr 8, 2008:
The server switch has been in the works for some time and has nothing to do with the Flickr services we're offering. Thanks for checking out some of our new offerings!
