1.0.0.171

Released build 171. A couple bugs fixed:
  1. There were inconsistent thumbnail title behavior - sometimes photos which owner are different from the current one had title like From: <user name> but sometimes they had real photo title. Now title's behavior are consistent.
  2. Implemented changing photo's title color after adding it to your favorites. Before this release you had to change navigation tree node and then return.

1.0.0.168

Implemented deleting sets. To do it just right click on the set you want to delete in the navigation tree and you will be promt to delete it.

There is a small bug on uploading photos - when you upload a new photos and add a new set, photos incorrectly distributed over this new set.

1.0.0.167

Implemented:
  1. WYSWYG HTML editor on add comments operation.
  2. Application log colorizing.
I wanted to implement a richer HTML editor but flickr allows to use only a few HTML tags in posts. You can read about it in Flickr FAQ.

A couple improvements

In 1.0.0.164 build have been made a couple of improvements:
  1. All windows but upload photo window can be closed without an action by pressing ESC button
  2. Implemented small and plain (so far) HTML editor for your descriptions. More rich editor will be later.
I have been working about HTML Editor for comments and it'll appear soon. And of course some bugs have been fixed.

Photo rotation info

As you may noticed the uploaded photo rotation feature was implemented. I would like to tell more about it. It doesn't really rotate uploaded image original but only uses the rotation feature of Flickr API. So the original image isn't changed. Of course the displaying of the original uses this rotation info so you'll see correctly rotated original within Flickr.Manager but the displaying of the original through web will not use this info.

I did so because i don't know how to save all EXIF tags while image handling in .NET. I think the real rotation will be implemeted instead of this Flickr API option in the future.

Interface changes

Since version 1.0.0.155 i have decided not to use separate tabs to display the photos of user and contacts and do it on the same tab page. Single navigation tree allows to select desired photo section (user's all, user's by tag, contact's recent etc.). Other tab(s) will do other operations (photo uploading for example), but it isn't implemented yet.
