Ricoh announces the relaunch of Pentax Photo Gallery

bdery · 09-24-2019, 08:11 AM

Same kind of problem here, it cannot send the email... I'll try again later.

Worked for me too - uploaded a couple pics as well. Ran into a problem because of the 15mb limitation though. And the PPG accepts GR pictures too though it doesn't differentiate between the first, second and third gens. Also the order of the lenses is almost random - wish they sorted it by focal length (or at least the widest of that lens) to make it faster to find. But nice to see it's up and going again!

It finally worked, and quickly. 'm up and running.

Artists – Pentax

After some six ( or so) attemps with two computers and three browsers it finally worked

15 MB shouldn't be a limitation. Upload resized JPEGs...The minimum height is 900px, but that is also the maximum size...anything larger is resized.

OK I have created an account but I am still figuring out how to submit pictures...

For me the password reset worked without problems. I see that they used a photo of mine from 2011 as a cover for the "Winter" collection.

So the email is correct ..

(I want my photo gallery too)

Ok I could change the password and enter my gallery and post the first photo, with all the limitations that the rules impose.
I think it's just changed the graphics but nothing more or new, probably the same server...

Always better than nothing or not?

It just stalls while loading when I try the reset password form.

I still can't go through despite my several attempts.

I managed to get the reset password mail yesterday evening (about 13h ago) and everything is OK now.

I am in. Yay! Thank you Ricohmericas.

I had the email could not be sent issue from my iPad, iPhone and PC yesterday using Safari, IE, Firefox and Chrome. This morning it worked fine from my iPad and Safari.

Finally got in. It would have been nice if they gave better instructions on what your "USERNAME" is. Back in the old days it was your e-mail address.

Since NG has shut down their Your Shot Gallery, this is my last best hope - I guess.

Yeah, that one caught me too for a while.

I've browsed the new gallery. New entries seem to pop up relatively fast! At least they seem serious about it.
