New RSS Feeds
This topic might not be everyone’s cup of tea, but we felt it was necessary to bring up in the context of enhancing our support of Web 2.0 features- that’s why we decided to integrate this new feature onto sevenload:
As a response to requests from several sevenloaders, we’ve decided to “pimp” the RSS Feeds on sevenload.
Under the section “My sevenload” you’ll find a large selection of general and also personalized RSS Feeds that can provide you with the information you want to have. The adjacent screenshot with its numerous options speaks for itself.
Don’t forget that the RSS Feeds always refer to the current page on sevenload: on a photo page for example only the RSS Feed for the comments of each of the respective photos will be displayed in the central option menu for the RSS Feeds.
Our developers and designers have also incorporated a graphic with the famous RSS icon for every functional box in the lower corner, so that when required the information from the box can also be conveniently viewed in the feed reader– as shown in the screenshot below.
Alongside the RSS Feed we have also integrated an RSS Feed corresponding to the new episodes of the specials on every sevenload channel, e.g. sevenload TV. This makes it possible to compile exactly what you personally want to see on sevenload from the large selection of feeds in combination with the new RSS Feeds.
We would be delighted to include your ideas and wishes in our to-do list– send us an E-mail or make a comment here in the Blog. We will be starting to work hard on developing the features as soon as time allows! 
Update: the individual RSS feeds for the Channels will possibly be adjusted afterwards. However, this should pose minimal problems for the users. We’ll keep you updated!
coComment: Track Comments on sevenload
For quite some time now, we’ve offered our users the chance to follow what’s going on for all comments made on their photos/videos on the “What’s New?” page.
As a small addition to this (to add a bit more Web 2.0ness to sevenload) we’ve decided to integrate coComment onto sevenload. coComment allows users to track not only their own comments being made, but also those by others (made on other users photos/videos).coComment makes it possible for people to follow various comments made on websites, blogs and forums (even those that are already months old).
For most users, this feature is not something that is an absolute must-have, but we hope that it will prove to be both a handy and welcome tool addition for both bloggers and non-bloggers alike.
How does coComment work on sevenload?
The easiest method of properly using coComment on sevenload is to create a user acocunt on coComment and then install the extension or plugin (for example, for Firefox). But, simply signing up with coComment does not mean that it will automatically work on sevenload, but rather insured that you have access to coComment and also that it is compatible with your internet browser. In order to it to work on sevenload, go to your account settings and under notifications. Under Communications Options you will see the option to use coComment. After selecting yes and saving the changes, you will be able to track comments made on any photos/videos by checking off the “Track this Conversation” button (which is found just below the comment box for the corresponding photo/video). After that, you may look at the overview of all tracked comments on coComment itself.
Conclusion
If you are already using coComment on other blogs and forums should already have an idea of what it should be like on sevenload. If you are not yet familiar with coComment it might help to take a look at their getting started section. Adding coComment is surely a good addition in supporting more Web 2.0 features on sevenload.
Better Creative Commons Support
We already incorporated Creative Commons onto sevenload in January. A lot of feedback came back to us from the Community about how we could better implement it and explain it to users- and our development team came up with a way to do searches under the parameters of certain CC licenses.
In addition, we’re planning on adding a feature that will let you add a CC License at the onset of uploading photos and videos. This hopefully will make it easier for you to share/protect your works on sevenload!
If you haven’t heard about Creative Commons yet, this will be your chance to find out more about it!
All Photo Sizes
We’ve been asked several times now how someone can easily access different sizes for a particular photo. You can generally accomplish this by using the “use externally” button for photos (and videos) in order to embed them, but it is especially helpful to see the different embeddable sizes for yourself. In order for you to be able to do this we’ve introduced a new function “all sizes”. Just to get an idea of what the function looks like when you click on “all sizes”, here’s an example of what you will see:
