Adding CC Licenses When Uploading
It was just mentioned in the last post that it would soon be possible to add CC licenses to your works while uploading. Well, you won’t have to wait any longer: Voila, it’s finished!
When you click on the details for a file just before it has been uploaded (on the upload page) you will see the “CC” Button which opens up a new window where you can add the appropriate CC License to your work. we hope that this helps alleviate the tedious process of having to a CC Licenses for each and every photo/video individually.
Point System Adjustment
We’ve been receiving a lot of feedback since the changes we made to the point system on sevenload, and the fact is that because ratings for photos and videos are not visibly honoured on the profiles yet we are going to make these additional calculations/adjustments:
1. Ratings
Photo and video rating will now be incorporated into the end points. For every 10 stars and additional 2 points will be added. Example: your photo has been rated with 8 stars 3 times = 24 stars. Thus, you will get an additional 4.8 points!
2. Comments
In addition to the points given for the commentator who uploaded the commented photo or video will also get an extra point added.
In addition, a small addition error was able to creep into the points displayed on various profiles. Our developers are currently working on getting numbers, info and facts straightened out!
Please excuse this minor irritation. 
New Point System on sevenload
Up to now, users with the most points received for their photos/videos were the ones who showed up as being most popular. But this meant that many of our users who are very active in the Community were not being recognized for their activity. That’s why we’ve decided to add user activity as one of our subsections on sevenload.
The new point distribution is therefore no longer affected by ratings, but rather activities such as the user’s tagging and uploading. The following list should give you a better idea of what we mean:
- Uploading a photo is worth one point. And for those who upload a profile photo right away will obviously immediately profit from it.
- However, each uploaded video is worth four points.
- In addition, five points are giving for creating an album, writing a comment or leaving a guestbook entry. If you already have a lot of friends in the Community and actively interact with them, you’ll be rewarded for it right away!
- Furthermore,one point will be given for every single rating made by the user themselves.
- And for those users who are really busy bees- they’ll each receive a half point for every tag they make for photos and videos.
- Whoever adds a profile photo will receive a one time only addition of 100 extra points! *the first time they add a profile photo.
We’re sure that you’ll enjoy this new point system- during our internal testing we discovered that we ourselves we getting addicted to be more active and start getting points.

Composition of the new points
Of course, we are not going to delete the old and new photo and video ratings they will just not be incorporated in the user’s profile page.
Update: We are already working on a way to reward the most active participation on sevenload with a prize. Further information will be available soon.
