Throttling, Uploading Folders, Different Background Color
I love Expono so much I bought an upgrade account so keep it up; you guys/gals are doing great work!
I do have 4 requests though:
1. Uploader needs to remember what the last images I uploaded were. As it is now I have to open up my Albums to see what was last uploaded then navigate to the folder on my hard drive to upload. It seems the uploader can only remember the User folder but nothing beyond that.
2. Throttling. When the Uploader is uploading images my web browsing takes a major hit. I'm on a pretty slow DSL connection and would like to get a little of the bandwidth back from the Uploader. My suggestion would be, if this is even possible, to have a setting somewhere that you could set the Uploader to throttle to 3/4, half or 1/4 bandwidth or something like that.
3. I'd love the Uploader to have the ability to a) upload folders of images as new albums (and not have to select all the images in the folder) and b) grab the name of the folder and use it for the album name similar to how iPhoto works when you drag and drop a folder of images into it.
4. An option to change the background of Expono's interface to a darker color. Something like Smugmug for example: http://www.smugmug.com/

Inappropriate?Any hope of seeing any of these? I'm especially hoping for throttling. I'm starting to dread uploading photos to Expono anymore because it renders my web browsing almost unusable.
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?I'm sorry I missed to answer these questions.
Question 1-3 are all related to a the uploader. The current webbased uploader have technical limitations. For example, we cannot do bandwidth throttling. I suggest searching for a free bandwidth limiter software.
The other issues could easily, be solved in a plugin or upload app. We are working on extending our API and help supporting third-party developers to develop these for us. I know there is an iPhoto plugin in development, that will soon see the daylight.
Are you using iPhoto today as desktop app to manage photos?
Question 4: Yes, we have a dark (black) theme in development. Still needs work before we make it available.
I’m confident
