Pentax Photo Gallery (PPG) entries · **4 Likes**

Hello all! I am going to make this a sticky post in hopes that I can get all of you who have submitted pictures to the Pentax Photo Gallery (PPG) and have had them accepted please post a couple of them here and please link back to your gallery so we can see your work. We have so many incredible photogs on this site I am curious to see what Pentax considers your best work.

Thanks!

Reassuring to know that PPG is messed up not just for me. A few days before the certificate expiry warning started coming up, it saved everything but the image when I tried to upload one.

Over on DPR there is a thread about PPG. One user provides a email address of "someone asking about what the user sees when trying to log on". So jxxx.pxxx@us dot ricoh-imaging dot com (sanitized email name, go to DPR if you want the real address) does not even know how to log on to PPG and read the error message.

To paraphrase Dr. McCoy "It's dead Jim". Remember, Ricoh let it die because they just can.

This is what happens today, I guess it's dead.

I can still log in and vote. The voting process is slow, but not as slow as it has been in the past. It's not quite dead yet!

I just get a 403 error.

I get the message Heinrich gets.

Here is what I got at 17:42 PDT.

It's dead Jim.

I see the normal logon and get in no problem.

Very odd!

photolady95 · 09-18-2018, 06:10 PM

I can see my gallery with the photos that have been approved but can't get to that page you have Mark.

Edit. I took the address that Philip had and used that and my dashboard came up and let me log in. No stupid messages. I bookmarked.

What happens when you try to upload an image?

I get a broken picture icon after it chews on the upload for several minutes.

Yup, you're not alone.

I fear that Ricoh has forsaken us.

I didn't try uploading yet. I haven't anything worthy in my standard of being uploaded to PPG, right now. But I'm glad I can still see what the last four photos are that were approved and I can post them here now when I couldn't post them when they were approved a few weeks ago.

photolady95 · 09-19-2018, 06:08 AM

First one:

Juvenile Downy Wood Pecker

Adult non breeding European Starling:

Snowy Egret:

That's if for now until I track down the last one. I thought it was in my birds album but I couldn't find it there so I'm going to have to go through my whole flickr for a few pages. UGH! LOL

**boriscleto** · 09-19-2018, 09:31 AM

It's back up for me now. They even updated the security certificate...

These three were taken the day my grandma died last year...

This was from July 2017

I have 18 in the queue going back to February.
