Re: Sway Points
Ok I see now that I earn by posting in the forum, can I earn them in another way?

Re: Sway Points
sorry to thread hijack, but its kinda relevant!
the 'max print resolutions' section shows the last 5 entries.. is there a way to see all (that are available, or unlocked) of them? I think i've missed a few, and would like to get them back.
Is this possible?
Thanks,
R

Hey Sway,
I must agree with richard. I thought also about this request, but didn't posted yet.
Would be very nice :)

Re: Sway Points
Hey Sway, Just abit of feedback for you. I think it is really unfair that members pay to enroll to your site and have to wait and wait to build up points just to see your archives. To be honest it puts alot of people off ! I understand what you are trying to do buuuuuut I think you will attract alot more people and keep them as members if you srap the points process ! We Pay to see you, not just part of you. Does that make sense ?

Re: Sway Points
I actually have no real problem some form of point system for perks. For me, the only drawing factor to the ultimate status would be the 3000px picture sets. The 1600px max resolution of the image sets might be a little lower than I expected but the shots are nice and sharp. I find that many sites that offer higher pixel count images look to be just enlarged versions of the same lower resolution image.

Re: Sway Points
They should have a Sway point counter up in the corner, you don't know how many times I have posted just to find I didn't get any Sway points and only getting .25 points for every post it takes you a long time to get the 75 points needed to get to the next tier.

Re: Sway Points
Hi guys, I think it's the right moment to bring some light in this topic.The idea of the Sway Points was nothing more or less to bring a special "Thank you" to guys who support us and our work since many months and years. It was the intention to give these very loyal fans something back from us and the idea of higher resolution was a good idea. 1600 pixel is in the internet still a very typical resolution and (thanks @MJG and others) these images are already in a very high quality with the lowest type of jpeg compression. The quality itself is our measure.@blurules ... after login you see your personal user menu on top of the page and also a bar of your current Sway Fan Rank. So, where are you missing a counter?CheersNorman

Re: Sway Points
@ Norman There are only certain number of points you can accrue in one day I have posted more than my daily limit. Since you only get .25 points for a post as they said in Top Gun "every point counts" and had I known the few times I posted too many times in a day I would have posted the next day so I could get the points. You should have a point counter that counts down so you can see if you can accrue so if the user is at zero they can have the option to post the next day if they want the points.

Re: Sway Points
Hello,
you DO NOT loose all your "swaypoints"!
They only get "freezed" if your membership runs out...
If you choose a new subscription, you start where you´ve stopped.
If your points are gone, you can write norman a mail, he can bring back your collected "swayponits"^^

Re: Sway Points
The forum seems to be connected between the two sites...Does that mean that the sway points are as well? Is there a point bonus for joining both sites?

Re: Sway Points
The whole 'sway points' idea is a little unclear..
Your current rank is Ultimate
You've already reached the highest rank. Check now all your club advantages. You've also collected xxx further Sway-Fan Points. Check now which sessions you can download in 3000 pixel.
My understanding is, at ultimate level you can view all image galleries in 3000px.. if thats the case, what are the 'further' points for? what do they achieve?
I'd still like to be able to browse all of the giga pictures released so far, rather than the last 5.. so I can check my collection isn't missing any!

Re: Sway Points
Richard,
When you reach ultimate you will not get access immediately to all the shoots that are available in 3000 pix. As you collect more Sway points more shoots will become available to you, there are about 80 or so shoots available in 3000 pix.
The problem I and i'm sure many others have is that I have already accumulated enough Sway Points to download all the galleries that are in 3000 pix and I am not receiving anything further for my loyalty.
I understand from a previous thread that there are going to be some changes to the site and the whole 'Sway points' thing may change.
