Nikon Image Space
 

Wondering if anyone has had any positive experiences with Nikon Image Space.

So far I am really unhappy with it.
No support for Linux (although Mac is supported which means the dev work required is minimal. It's easier to support Mac/Linux than Mac/Windows) so can not register my device nor install their file manager to support "drag and drop" uploading. In fact I can not even upload an image via a web browser right now.

Font looks terrible

Storage space is limited (even 20GB), and what if I own more than one NIkon device, I'm still limited to 20GB!

Supports facebook, but doesn't support the popular photography social sites such as 500px, 1x.com or DigitalRev jux.com etc.

Thats my venting session finished for now :) I guess I'd just expected more from a top company wanting to break into an already crowded market (image hosting).

Use Adobe RGB, SRGB or ProPhoto RGB colour spaces like everyone else and stop trying to be such a rebel, Rob :p :D :rolleyes:

Did you consider looking at the [URL="http://info.nikonimagespace.com/help/10110/?lang=en_GB&t=pickup"]system requirements[/URL]? Did you consider that Linux really isn't supported by many firms before choosing it? For most stuff, it's a case of do-it-yourself or wait until someone else does it. Nikon have enough bother supporting Capture NX2 on all varieties of windows & Mac systems without so-called 'free-spirits' whining about lack of support in an elitist OS for a product that's aimed squarely at the mass-market.

As for the look of the font, or the space being limited to 20GB, well... what do you expect for nothing? Doubtful if anyone they're aiming at even knows about 500px, 1x.com or DigitalRev jux.com etc.
