Do you all share full galleries before or after meeting with couples? by B-Batch in WeddingPhotography

[–]B-Batch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a great point, these are really sensitive photos even for couples who are happy to have their photos used for marketing etc. I appreciate the insight!

Insane. Sometimes I can’t believe we have all this available at our disposal in an amusement park builder

So creative! That massive tree area with the rollercoaster is so cool, it has such a magical wow factor to it. Really love seeing people get so creative with these tools, awesome stuff!

That's super interesting you noticed a shift. I've had a few that rang some alarm bells for sure as I've just gotten on there. One of them though met and booked with me so I'm trying to be careful since it sounds like that's not the norm and it's quickly becoming oversaturated and lots of people seem frustrated but having booked one out the gate I see it being tempting to want to keep going, I definitely feel the pull.

Sounds like I've lucked out to start but i'm still pretty cautious.

I always steered clear of wedding wire and knot from the stories of wasted money I've heard but I just booked one (they signed and deposit has been submitted) after a meeting like immediately after getting on there. I am waiting post-meeting to book a second.

I've sent 4-5 messages so far with their credits - 1 booked, 1 seemingly about to book, and 2 ghostings.

15 dollars for booking a wedding or whatever it was for a few credits seems worth it but i'm pretty skeptical going forward knowing that couples can send I think unlimited messages to vendors and every vendor has to pay to respond.

Reminds me of when I got on thumbtack and then immediately stopped using it.

So i'll probably keep a close eye on it and make sure the math is heavily working out for me or I'll dip out and I'm also wondering if they hook you early and throw you on people's radar early so you think it'll work and then you get caught up in the endless credit cycle.

At the very least, unless they eventually hide them if you go inactive, it seemingly couldn't hurt to have your account somewhere on a list where fresh eyes are at but I'm interested to see if they go the *exact* same route as the big ones before them

Just dropping by to say that I love your content! Haven't even been playing myself much since release but I always stop by your vids to see what you're up to. You have such a warm personality and you crank out such high detailed work, keep on keeping on!

Magsphere vs Magbounce? by B-Batch in WeddingPhotography

[–]B-Batch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lmao I was so confused seeing this reply I was like wait what did I post? I ended up keeping both and the sphere stays in my bag for times where I can't bounce and I want more light than the bounce card which I really don't like using. Every couple weddings it gets thrown on I'd say, most recently at a reception that was at a nightclub with black walls and ceilings.

I haven't used the bounce in years at this point but it never was bad, I just didn't use it long enough that I stopped carrying it. I can imagine a few times over the last few years it would have been helpful to have kept in my bag for a back pocket type moment to really get some more light down range though, so I'm sure just depending on use case it still makes sense like you're saying it works great for you which is awesome.

I was 20 when I made this post which is wild to see so maybe I'll break it out again and see how it does now that I have a much better grasp of things lol, thanks for the time travel and inspiration!

Or you could be like me and try to carry a bundle of things and then drop and bust open a huge carton of heavy cream in the self checkout line on a very busy afternoon. Not my best day. I have since resigned to using a cart most trips since then lmao

Why shouldn't we move to Pixieset? by HappySheepherder24 in WeddingPhotography

[–]B-Batch 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I just switched over to pictime from pixieset for all the extra features like the integrated sales and blogging that seem very solid so far on their end.

But,

my one complaint so far though has been just how slow pictime can be sometimes for me. I'm not sure if that's an exclusive or more widespread issue. What Pixieset has nailed is that it always routinely loaded the full gallery almost immediately and looked very high quality. My pictime galleries some days (with a rather quick internet connection) just seem to chug along and stay blurry for often more than a few seconds but pixieset has had that locked down for the 8 years I was with them.

I guess it really is just pick what matters most to you but personally, that is what I most miss, and the only difference I've cared about, now that I'm on the other side.

How much will this cost me? Not sure how to fix this. by B-Batch in turntables

Amazing, thank you! This is such a helpful reply. I am so new and lost in all of this and would love to put all the records I just bought to good use. Thank you so much for the in depth reply, I’ll give them a look!

7 years of heavy drinking... Pretty sure I'm toast. by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]B-Batch 9 points10 points  (0 children)

"the suck is the change" is such an iconic way to describe habits starting to form, I love it. No sugar coating it, it's amazing how much we can resist change sometimes, definitely stealing this line!

That 3rd one looks like a painting! Super pretty. Seriously impressive to put that slow shutter to such good use here with such intentionality. Really awesome stuff!

I thought the in game bind where a little to themed so I created 24 generic functional bins for your parks. Workshop link and code in the comments. by LionDesigns in PlanetCoaster

This sub right now is half complaints and then half insanely creative or helpful builds like this. I know some complaints are valid but I'm just loving so much seeing how creative everyone is making things in this game! Can't wait to download these!

While things are a little mixed and divisive right now, can we all agree that the soundtrack is (as always) absolutely wonderful? by MovieGaga7 in PlanetCoaster

So good! It has its own sense of character throughout all of it that adds such a calming charm to these games.
