Thanks for liking my pictures

There is however one downside. I don't get through my notifications. But that is not a reason to stop liking my Pictures. I just going to say: Thanks to you all and any tips by you experienced lomographers on how to deal with this problem are welcome

Just a picture to draw your attention

There was time when I got 30 notifications I was a happy dude. I made it a habit to thank everyone personnaly and I paid their home a visit too. This was a good way to learn to know many of my friends here.

Then there was a very pleasing thingy happening, My pictures made it to the selected area. So when I got home from work 100 notifications were waiting for me. I liked the attention and carried on thanking everyone in person. One thing was annoying me: whenever I thanked someone, or viewed someone else’s pictures, I always had to start at notification nr.1 and browse my way to were I was.

Last week things got wild. They put three of my pictures in the selected area. I am truly honored. I had a busy time and when I checked in there were 750 notifications. I was planning on going through them all. But then they made me a Lomoguru, I am again sincerely humbily grateful. The result is that now as I am writing this there are 1862 notifications waiting for me. I can’t check them all out. The problem is there are new people in there, who are going to think I am a posh bloke, not thanking them. I follow my good friends anyway, so that’s not a real problem.

I know this massive liking is going to stop next week, but I think I might be confronted with this again in the future.

And because a lot of my friends and readers of this blog are long time super heroes in the Lomo Universe, I am asking you girls and guys. How do you deal with this situation?

    I pay an unemployed comedian in Uzbekistan to handle all my responses to notifications... ;-)

    since I start to watermark my pictures they ceased to appear on the selected pages :-) but seriously, to avoid to start to check all the notifications from the last one each time you replay to someone simply right click on it an open the picture or the lomographer page in a new window! :)

    Or on a new Tab. I don't have this kind of problem, but as I love to see pictures I usually open lots of tabs. My problem are e-mails. As I'm a teacher I receive lots of it, so to deal with them all I spend a lot of time. Regards!
