Firstly, Great Job! Thank You to all who put in the hard work - Respect.
Suggestion 1:
JP is home to one of the largest AvGeek population on the planet if not THE largest. And so, i'd just like to propose the addition of a Flight Log option.
I currently use FlightDiary. There are others like FlightMemory.com AirDiary.net OpenFlights.org and so on......
JP is owned by the Google of the AvGeek world - FR24. Can I please request the addition of a FR24/JP flight log wherein you just key-in the date and your flight number - FR24 should auto-populate the rest of the info from its database.
Suggestion 2:
Its 2017, to wait ages for a photo to be screened when you can just instantly share it via the multitude of options seems a little out of whack.
Having said that, I regard the big two as the Gold Standard but I do suggest embracing change in that - give some of the experienced uploaders or people who meet criteria a/b/c the option of skipping the queue and having their photos go up instantly.
If this person abuses the system or uploads really sub-standard content (unlikely) then the insta-addition privilege can be withdrawn & he can be asked to go back and stand in line.......
This ensures a fresh Top of 24 (if its allowed to stay organic by JP not spamming non-newsworthy photos across their social media) and a leaner queue/lesser workload for the screeners (some of whom can skim over the insta-added photos to ensure adherence with standards and if needed ping the uploader about a category he may have missed or an editing flaw etc.....
Suggestion 3:
If you look at the screenshot below:
The part marked 1 are two hyperlinks which do the exact same thing (correct me if i'm wrong) and so the one saying Photos can be done away with. And instead be replaced by the uploader's Flight Log hyperlink.
The part marked 2 IMO can be better represented as the reg for example: VT-JBB | Airframe Info | Aircraft Flight Log (where the former hyperlinks to more photos of that reg, the airframe info & the a/c's flight log on FR24)
I had spoken to Brian on the phone a while ago and had mentioned Suggestion #2 among other things. He did tell me to put it down in writing but, I just never got round to doing it.
Anyways, i'm glad there's a refreshing new look to JP which was badly needed and I offer the above suggestions as something I feel will make this place even better.
Cheers - VJ
