We've Doubled In Size!

It was just a little over a month ago that we had hit 1,000 Polaroids! If you do the math, that is about 30-35 postings a day, and the photos just keep getting better and better. It seems that everyone is enjoying the new sweet features that ShakeItPhoto released in version 1.1. I would highly suggest watching Nick Campbell's video demonstration about it!

Congratulations Tryntje Blue Rapalje!

Because you posted our 2,000th polaroid, we would like to send you a $15 dollar iTunes gift card! Check out her Twitter feed and her Flickr Sets. Thanks for posting to our site and we hope to see more from you!

A Challenge To You...

You guys uploaded 1,000 photos in a little over a month? Do you think you guys could beat that record? Could you? I double dog dare you! Happy Posting!

Rejoice, for the update has come!
Today, the ShakeItPhoto 1.1 update was finally released into the wild fixing a few bugs and adding one awesome feature. The ability to take any photo from your library and polarize it. ( Thank you Nick Campbell! ) Also because of this feature, iPod Touch users can now share in the fun of polarizing their favorite photos. I'm sure this will open the door for even more awesome photos and postings!

Also, we are very close to releasing the ability to post multiple photos at once as well as a few little bug fixes. Please shoot over any suggestions or feedback you have for the site.

Keep shooting and keep posting!

Anyways, it's been real exciting to see all the sweet photos being posted that had been taken with the sweet 3GS iPhone camera. I personally can't wait til I get to upgrade. Thanks for everyone that is posting and making the site what it is! We have more gift cards coming up!

1. Today we've released a new feature. When a photo is posted successfully, you'll now receive a confirmation email. The email will contain the link of the photo you posted and encourage to come back to check for ratings and comments.  Also, it's a great way to share the link easily right from your email.

2. Now photos will automatically post to twitter as soon as they are posted. No waiting to share your link via @photoshakedown. All photos are still under close watch. We plan to add a "Report" button for inappropriate content.

Coming Soon...

Also, there is a rumor about iPhone 3.0 software will have the ability to email multiple photos at once and this makes me real excited. So coming soon will be the support of multiple photo uploads right from your iPhone.

Well that is it for today's post! If you have any questions/comments/suggestion please email us at info@photoshakedown.com or just put it in the comments! Happy posting!
