Hey bloggers: you want some options, you got some options
As we continue to get awesome feedback from all of our Crank’rs, there’s nothing like implementing a highly demanded feature into production. Knowing that there is a huge need for something, figuring out how to get it developed and getting it out to our Crank’rs - this is something that we’ve done many times over the past several months and this is what keeps PhotoCrank more fun, reliable and easy to use.
One of the latest requests, specifically from the bloggers who have the PhotoCrank Engine running, is that we make a simple way for them to make certain photos on their blog ‘unCrankable’. Even though we all love us some Crank’n, there are definitely times when you may not want someone adding a Crank to a photo. For instance, we had some bloggers who wrote a very serious post about George Carlin passing away and they didn’t want the photo to be Crankable out of respect to the man who came up with the 7 words that you can’t say on TV.
Anyways, there are other reasons why a blogger may not want a photo Crankable and it’s our job to give you that option, so we did. There was a way to do it previously, but it wasn’t nearly as simple as the super-simple way that you can do it now. Here’s how it works:
We have added a new option to the Options Menu, which can be seen by clicking the gray button with the down-arrow on it. Then, go down to the Adminstration –> Allow Image To Be Cranked option and uncheck it if you would like the photo to be unCrankable. This can be done to any image after it is posted to your blog.
Each photo is Crankable by default. Simply uncheck to make it unCrankable.
Hopefully this option makes all of our blogger’s Crank’n experience even better than it has been up to this point. If you are a blogger or a Crank’r and you have something you’d like to see changed/removed/added to PhotoCrank, please feel free to comment here and let us know - we’d love to hear what all of you have to say!
