Hello everyone! My name is Amanda and I'm the newest member of the Queensberry team. I've jumped on board to take part in our communications so chances are if you're engaging with us on Twitter or Facebook- it'll be me you're talking to! Being new around here I've had a lot to learn, one of the biggest things being the difference between Photojunction and Workspace. I thought it might be handy to outline some of their key differences that have helped me understand the functions of each. Hopefully my notes will help you too! Let's start with Photojunction: Photojunction is a powerful desktop programme, To View More >>

We sincerely apologise to those of you that have been affected by the current errors occuring when designing Flushmount albums in Photojunction. For those of you that wish to have a full bleed image on the page after a translucent title you will be encountering an error that stops you from proceeding. We are aware of the problem and are working on a solution in Photojunction. In the meantime we have two options for getting around this issue: • Either drop the image onto the layout and physically drag the image to the edges or; • Instead of selecting the title option, leave a note in the special To View More >>

You know something's been done right when its simplicity takes you by surprise ... either that or something's wrong! If I told you something that previously needed its own piece of software can now be done with the click of a button, would you believe me? It's true. Over the past couple of months the guys at Photojunction have been developing a feature especially for Queensberry clients. They've integrated the FTP process into Photojunction and released it in the latest release of Photojunction, beta 1.26b. Ordering and sending your album is now one smooth, easy process. You won't need LabFTP any To View More >>

Everyone has a different workflow, there's no question about it. Most wedding photographers have a shooting season and…the rest of the year. Depending on your clients, album design could be year round, but if you're lucky, you finish your album season shortly after your shooting season. The "downtime" is used for maintaining your business, small shoots, networking, and maybe taking it easier. One of the most important things to take care of during this time is organizing and backing up files. I 'm afraid album files get forgotten sometimes. I can't stress enough, you should back up your files. To View More >>

All software evolves as new features are added and new versions released. Photojunction and Photoshop are no exception, and, as PJ takes advantage of more, often newer, features of Photoshop, its "backwards compatibility" with older versions is lessened. That's why we recommend that you use Photoshop CS3 or later with Photojunction. If you use CS2 or even earlier, chances are that it will work fine, but you may occasionally find that some PSD files don't import correctly as images or templates, or that you get error messages when exporting with PS scripting. If that happens, all Support can do To View More >>

Remember the very first time you sent a letter? (Or for those who have never posted a letter - sent an email?) There were doubts - would it get there? Would strangers look at it in transit? Did I have enough postage? Did I have the right address? Do I trust the postie to take great care of my efforts? The same goes with sending orders to Queensberry through Photojunction for the first time. We need assurances that I know, as a very regular user, become less relevant with experience. Photojunction has many 'safety' features to prevent people from mucking up their orders. These safety features exist To View More >>

Wading through our "how-to" posts was quite a job. Trying to single out the best was just as difficult, but worth the effort. Here are my favourites. Hopefully you'll find them handy when dealing with Queensberry and Photojunction, and evaluating your own workflow... There's so much good stuff in the  Smooth Sailing series I reckon you should check them all, but here are a few: Photo Front covers (easy peasy) - If designing Photo Front covers sounds hard. It's not. Here's how to easily do it. What can delay your orders? -  Here are a few simple things that frequently delay people's orders (long To View More >>

Cover layout design in PJ Remix Here are the first steps in preparing a perfect, hassle-free print-and-bind order, really fast. 1. First, upgrade to PJ Remix. If you have already, thank you. 2. Use Remix to design your cover as well as your page layouts. You'll get to frame and crop the cover image yourself, see exactly what it looks like and be sure that it looks good. For example, here you can see how much of the image in the photo front cover layout above has been cropped away. No problem in this case, but many images won't be suitable: 3. Export your cover AND page layouts using Remix's Export To View More >>

Photojunction has changed so much during the year that we're going to build a brand new series of five minute (give or take) classroom demo movies, and we'd like you to be involved. The plan is to record the movies live during a webinar. We'll intro and close each separate five minute movie so we can easily chop the recording up afterwards, but you'll still be able to ask questions. We'll fit as many 'mini movies' into the hour as we can. For the first one, here's what we'll be gunning to get through: Start here!

A quick post because that's all it needs... If you're not selling your templates in the Photojunction store, you're leaving money on the table. And easy money at that. Since we launched the store last year, we've been paying out monthly to plenty of users who are skimming an extra level of income off work they've already done. Photojunction makes it 'one-click' easy to start selling your wares in the store, so what's stopping you? Here's a post about how it works and a series of store tips. Go wipe that table clean.
