Hello flightsimmers, and to today’s blog post! I am pleased to announce that SimPictures version 1.1 has been released, with a ton of fantastic features that I’m sure you will enjoy.
Notifications
By far my favourite and most requested by members on our Discord Server feature has been brought to life. You may notice a notification icon in the top of your screen: just click on this to see your latest notifications. The types of notifications you may now get include submission accept or reject, comments, likes and replies.
You can manage notifications in Notification settings . You can control newsletter preferences there as well.
New picture sharing options
You’re now able to share your screenshots with anyone before they even get approved! Handy if the queue of screenshots is busy, or you just want to send it to your friends right away.
Moreover, there is a brand-new share window, using which you can share pictures on social media platforms, or just copy a link. Along with the license information, you can also download a picture! Please note that download option is only available to pictures licensed under Creative Commons BY-ND 4.0.
There’s a new share modal available for member pages too!
Small, but important
Starting from 1.1, a new option requires your attention.
If you don’t want your pictures to be shared on our social media accounts, please disable “Picture sharing” option in Account settings . Note that this only applies to pictures submitted before this update, so your old pictures are safe.
