I haven't submitted more in the last week or so  but I've been voting 
every couple of days - my annoyance is their catagorization of my main 
interests as to subject matter. Being largely based on what I had had 
previously accepted from how people voted as opposed to what I submitted 
overall  a few years ago.

I'd prefer "eclectic". sigh

I think participating in the PPG is one way to show Ricoh that there are a

The PPG is certainly not perfect, but it is the best we have at this point.
I agree about your comment on the PPG favoring images with "pop" and
"sizzle."  I submitted one of my favorite images, a study of the texture of
tree bark.  It was rejected.  I submitted it again, and it was rejected
again.  I submitted it a third time, in a different category, and it was

I am just curious as to who else is submitting and voting on images in the
PPG, now that it is reactivated, and what kind of experiences you are
having there.

Overall, the "new" gallery is very nice, but I don't understand how Ricoh
is handling the submissions process.

Since the gallery was reactivated, I have had 3 submissions approved, and
none declined.

I had about 60 images in the "Pending Photos" queue, all submitted between
March and June of 2018, and none of those has been processed. I submitted
two on Sep 23, and both were approved in about a week.  I submitted 13 on
Sep 25, none of which has been processed.  I submitted one on October 11,
which was approved in less than two days.  I submitted two more on Oct. 
16,

neither of which have yet been processed.

It appears they are ignoring submissions from 2018, although they all 
still

appear in the "Pending Photos" folder.  The process for approving recent
submissions seems almost random.

The two images I submitted on Sep 23 have been approved and moved to the
top of my gallery.  I submitted a dozen on September 25, and none have yet
been accepted or rejected.

My "Pending Photos" collection includes another 50 or o that were submitted
between January and June of 2018.  I wonder if they will ever be processed.

At least the PPG is working again!

3.  Approvals/Rejections.  I have not had any of my images uploaded last
year approved or rejected since the system went back up.  Has anyone else
had any images processed and approved or rejected?

4.  Order of images.  Until yesterday, all the images in my gallery were
sorted with the oldest image first.  This made it extremely difficult to
tell im any were approved, as I had to scroll all the way down.  Now, the
most recent images are at the head of each queue.  This is much more
convenient.

5.  Premiere Collection.  There have been no additions to this excellent
gallery of images since the gallery became active again.

Anyone else have any comments or recent experiences to share?

If I remember, the approval process required a certain number of "members" to 
vote the images in. How is that affected by the Gallery having been down for so 
long and probably most "members" having moved on and are not aware the Gallery 
is back in operation?


Do you think enough "members" are back to viewing new submissions to constitute 
a voting quorum?

Re: Pentax Photo Gallery - Revived?

2019-09-24 Thread Daniel J. Matyola
In general, the new gallery seems to function well, perhaps better than the
old gallery.
A few quirks I find a bit inconvenient:

1.  When you log in and look at your own gallery, you can see the image
titles, but not if you are not logged in or are looking at someone else's
gallery.  (I like the titles;  sometimes they explain the image.)

2.  The old galleries had the newest images at the top, and the oldest at
the end.  This starts with the oldest images (except for some unknown
reason, they put 3 random images from 2011 ahead of my 2009 images, which
are nicer!) This means I have to scroll all the way to the bottom to see if
anything has changed.

3.  In the "All" gallery view, there is no indication if an image is
approved, Pending or rejected.

4.  No new entries in the Premiere Collection.  If they add to that, that
would be an indication that someone from Ricoh is actually looking at the
images and evaluating them.

All in all, I am just glad it is back.

It's in the upper right of the GREY area, just above the 3rd artist on the top 
row (I see three across when I click on Artists).


It's just a small banding box the same color as the background -  Grey on Grey.

You come up when I search for you, but a search for "Dan Matyola" returns 
"Sorry, No Artists Found".

I'm sure that Search Box wasn't there when I first looked - but it's there now.

It will be interesting to see what Ricoh does with the Gallery from now on.

Re: Pentax Photo gallery

The Pentax Photo Gallery is back online, and appears to be functioning
normally.  Both Bong and I have been able to log in and access the images.

The approval process is now almost 7 months behind.  I don't think that is
explained by a smaller pool of voters, because the pool of submitters would
also have decreased proportionately.  I think it is a case of benign
neglect by Ricoh.

For the time being, I shall continue to submit and vote, even though I
suspect the gallery's days are numbered.

Re: Pentax Photo gallery

2018-05-20 Thread Brian Walters
I'm getting a time-out as well.  I think I last checked in late April when it
was working OK.

I wouldn't be surprised if Ricoh is getting ready to pull the plug - they lost
interest in it years ago and, I think, many users have too. I last submitted
images in 2016 when it look 6-8 weeks for approvals to come through.  I
understand it can now take 5-6 months which is a pretty clear indication that
not many are voting.  

Ricoh's lack of interest can be seen by no additions to the Premier Collection
for several years - surely there would have been some contributions worth
including during that time - and I think Kerrick James has been the Featured
Artist for well over a year.

Last time I looked, the K-1 and KP weren't even included in the cameras list.

It's a pity but I think the PPG's time has passed - even if the server comes
back on line.

I suspect, it is a rather gray legal area, especially, if the owner would 
not be using it for commercial or derogative purposes with respect to the 
trademark.

If they can demonstrate that they own the trademark for Pentax and
that pentaxphotogallery.com could potentially cause confusion (which
is obviously can, since Pentax used that in the past) it's a slam

Either Ricoh doesn't want to renew it, or they cannot find the passwords 
for access to GoDaddy registration account, as those who had them might be 
long gone. In either case, if Ricoh didn't warn PPG users that they are 
not going forward with it (I don't know, my notifications are turned off, 
and I haven't been there for ages), it is rather disrespectful of them.



Unfortunately, GoDaddy holds to that domain, by keeping it d renewed for 
the next year, so you cannot actually buy it. From the point of view of 
ICANN, it has been renewed already today. Otherwise, I would have 
considered jumping on it. ... Just for fun of it.


I wouldn't be surprised if someone will do that if GoDaddy releases it 
some time soon.

All Ricoh would have to do is to go the the old URL for the Gallery.
That takes one to the GoDaddy page that asks whether you are the
registered user and provides a link for renewing the registration.

That same page is also offering the domain name for sale.

original owner can renew the domain, so it is not available to be
picked up by just anybody until that time frame expires. The two email
addresses associated with the domain record are:
carolyn.hass...@prac.pentax.com and khoi.t...@prac.pentax.com.

It is a common oversight to forget to update the email addresses
associated when a company buys and changes the root domain. It is
quite possible that prac.pentax.com no longer exists. Hopefully the
email administrator for ricohimaging.com was smart enough to forward
emails to those address to someone who still works for the company.
Carolyn is no longer with Ricoh, according to her LinkedIn page:
https://www.linkedin.com/pub/carolyn-hassell/7/470/7a8
Neither is Khoi Tran:

Someone should post the info on Ricoh's Facebook page or this could
easily slip between the cracks.

I called and talked with someone in Marketing who thanked me for the info.
Khoi Tran was also formerly associated with this domain:
ricohimagingrewards.com but I see that that has been updated to a new
ricoh-usa.com email address.
So I'm going to send the info to that administrator's email address
also. I'm sure they will take corrective action, but it is difficult
when the only two contacts that are associated with the domain are no
longer with your company. However, I'm sure it has happened before and
GoDaddy can get it figured out with them.

Re: Pentax Photo Gallery

2015-07-20 Thread Darren Addy
I think the quickest way for the current admin to fix this would be to
tell their email admin to recreate an email account for
khoi.t...@prac.pentax.com and point any mail that goes to that address
to go to the new administrator. That way he can reset the GoDaddy
password, etc. Once he is in, he can renew the domain. I've made the
suggestion via email to the current admin (who apparently lives in
Georgia). I've also expressed my interest in an I.T. job with Ricoh
USA.

Re: Pentax Photo Gallery

2015-07-20 Thread Igor PDML-StR


Mark,

While, yes, it would be pointless trying to get pentax.com,
but I am not quite sure that Ricoh/Pentax has rights to all and any 
derivatives of the word pentax.
I suspect, it is a rather gray legal area, especially, if the owner would 
not be using it for commercial or derogative purposes with respect to the 
trademark.



So, if it were only $15-20, as for a regular domain registration, I 
would've bought it, just to see what happens... Paying $69.99+ (or more 
likely 100+) is already getting too much for this type of fun.

I am not D.T.

Cheers,

Igor

It would also be rather pointless to buy it. Since Ricoh owns the
trademark on Pentax they could get the domain back through the
courts if they so desired. Of course, that would cost them some money,
but not a lot in the grand scheme of things.

Of course not.  It is pretty routine foe Ricoh to renew the

Re: Pentax Photo Gallery

2015-07-20 Thread Mark C
Some years ago I forgot the password to my domain and also failed to 
update the contact email. When my then ISP was purchased the email had 
changed, with no forwarding. I was unable to take any action with 
regards to my domain. While it was inconvenient to get the account email 
changed - required having to send a notarized form to the registrar - it 
was not too difficult. It did take a few weeks for the registrar to move 
things along though.  In my case I had plenty of time till the domain 
expired so it did not matter.
