Scrapbook FAQ
If you're trying to create an album in your Plus account and are getting suggestion to buy Paid account first, that means your account is still being transferred to the new Scrapbook (manu here rus).
Android client will be able to continue uploading pictures to the new Scrapbook without being updated (tritankista here rus).
The space-counting widget that displayed that Permanent account holders were out of space will be fixed in the next release (manu here).
There supposed to be a log where all pictures that had security level changed will be listed (coffeechica here).
There's a trick that helps to figure out which images were not migrated:
Secondly, when you get your email notification of migration of your photos, there will be a link to a migration report. This shows links to the images that failed to be moved. The links to these do not work but if you add / to the end of each link, you will get a smaller version of the lost picture SOMETIMES.
There are plans to add the following features:
- getting a list of direct links to pictures after a batch of them is done uploading
(manu here rus);
- getting a link to a picture with one click (manu here rus);
- mass actions (mass-move, mass-delete etc) (manu here);
- sorting by creation date (manu here);
- making a photo an album cover during the upload (manu here and here rus);
- creating links from thumbnail to original automatically when adding pictures to a post (manu here);
Still existing issues:
Images on the new system are still missing for some people.
There is no information on where the images that were corrupted in the old Scrapbook were located ( here).
Upload crashes Opera http://news.livejournal.com/142535.html?thread=101154503#t101154503.
Many people are reporting that pictures were migrated to wrong albums.
There are some issues with usernames with trailing underscores. Engineers are looking into it.
(coffeechica here).
Logged-out users can see the list of ALL albums regardless of their security. They can't see the actual pictures inside, but names of the albums are visible (confirmed as a major bug by coffeechica here).
Remaining space info is not updated after albums or pictures are deleted.
No way to select an album to upload to during upload.
Friend-only pictures are not showing up in image selector when adding to a post ( here)
