PhotoZou Encounters

Hi everyone,

Today, we have a very important information for you.

It might be a piece of sad news. But I hope you will understand.

As of December 17, PhotoZou will no longer be able to offer its service in English.

The pages you are currently seeing in English will turn Japanese.

You can still upload and share your photos and videos, as well as make comments and write diary entries...etc, using the same account you have, but unfortunately, only in Japanese.

It was a heart breaking decision, but requirements for keeping PhotoZou bilingual made it impossible for us to maintain the quality of English messages.

If you still chose to stay with us, we would be SO happy, and grateful. This case, you will be redirected to the following URL;

http://photozou.jp/

After you re-login, we will see you there!

And don't worry, your Artworks, comments, and diary entries will be all there, too, unless you decide to terminate your account.

Thank you very much for being supportive for all this time.

We hope to see you on our Japanese version, and if not, it's ashame, but you and your Artworks will be in our mind, forever!

See you soon!

Sincerely,
PhotoZou Development Team

Hello everyone!

It's been awhile...quite awhile! We apologize for the long silence, but we are really excited to tell you about some of our latest updates.

First, we have added a new Categories option into the PhotoZou menu. As of now, the only category available is Dogs, but we are planning on adding more very soon.

All the pictures and videos listed under the category "Dog" are those that have been tagged as such. You can tag a photo or video from that particular piece of artwork's page.

This is your chance to show off your precious pups to people outside of the dog park! Go ahead and try it out.

In other PhotoZou news: PhotoZou is now compatible with Vox This...so you can upload your artwork from PhotoZou directly into your Vox account!

Don't worry, it's easy to use!
The Vox "V" will now appear underneath popular photos on PhotoZou, so you can take them directly from their PhotoZou home and transport them into your Vox service.

(Vox is a free blogging service brought to you by Six Apart Inc.)

Thank you,

PhotoZou Development Team

The team at PhotoZou is happy to announce the rebirth of our photo-sharing website, PhotoZou. The new design has been created based on feedbacks and comments from our devoted PhotoZou users.

Be the first to check out our new design during our special sneak preview period from November 1st to the 14th. Freely switch between the current and new design from “Edit Profile” from your settings page.

You’ll notice right away that the new design is more orderly, more detailed, easier to see, and easier to play around with!

Last but not least, I would like to add that all suggestions and comments regarding our new design is welcome! Please post under “PhotoZou Community” under “Communities.”

PhotoZou English has been released in Beta version for awhile but now the Beta has been lifted and it is officially released.

PhotoZou, as many of you may already know was first released in Japanese in Japan. We do not frequently hear of such websites that are exported out of Japan and translated into English. PhotoZou is a great opportunity for those of you who are trying to learn Japanese, have an interest in Japan, or are bilingual. PhotoZou English already holds many photos that can only be shot in Japan. Therefore, through PhotoZou, why not enjoy a little cross-cultural communication and feel like you just took a trip to Japan?

For more information, see our press release.

PhotoZou, the ever self-improving website, has a new feature.

Pictures and videos can easily be pasted onto your Blogs from PhotoZou but now, they can be pasted in Flash. Simply choose the style you want and add a little pizzazz to your Blog entries.

As emphasized a million and one times, PhotoZou is all about COMMUNITY. Therefore, PhotoZou now carries a new feature of “Community” (Beta stage). Find people with the same interests and thoughts by creating Community groups. Join a community that you show an interest in and swap stories and pass on the passion. And of course, upload photos and literally see for yourself what Community is all about!

Community categories run from Tech to Travel, Entertainment to Lifestyle so there’s bound to be a Community that suits you! If not, well, just make one. I made two myself, “Shoes” and “Books” because those are the things that I can't do w/o!!

Ciao for now and see you in Community!
