Nikon reveals launch of Nikon Image Space

Posted on 25 January 2013

The Nikon Corporation has announced the forthcoming launch of their new photo sharing and storage site Nikon Image Space on the 28th January 2013. Previously known as MyPicturetown, the new site promises advanced usability and performance for photography and video enthusiasts the world over (even the loyal Canon devotees).

Nikon Image Space is free to all users and offers 2GB of storage, but extends a full 20GB to verified Nikon customers. Five years after the launch of MyPicturetown which succumbed to some major scrutiny – this time Nikon assures the improved site lets you enjoy faster system processing and smoother operation than its predecessor. The company is positive that Nikon Image Space provides their users with a simple and beautiful means to upload, view, organize and share videos and images online. In addition, Nikon Image Space boasts enhanced collaboration with social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter for users to share content.

The primary features for Nikon Image Space as specified by the Nikon Corporation are listed below:

Two types of free accounts

Nikon Image Space offers users a choice between two types of free accounts. Basic accounts are available to anyone. Users of Nikon digital cameras have the additional option of upgrading to a Special account using a dedicated application to verify Nikon digital cameras. While both types of accounts are free of charge, the maximum storage space is 2 GB for Basic accounts and 20 GB for Special accounts. Special accounts will offer more advanced functions, including the ability to apply a password when sharing images and a function that restricts image download.

Improved Usability

Significant changes in window design make sequential image operations easier including uploading, viewing, organizing and sharing. Additionally, a relaxing background color has been adopted for a more pleasing image display while an easy-to-use layout has been implemented.

Greater Performance as a Web System

Operation has been improved with faster system processing capabilities. NIKON IMAGE SPACE offers smooth, more natural operation with faster image uploading and downloading, as well as a faster response when images are edited. Greater Collaboration with Social Networking Sites: Greater collaboration with social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter® expands the possibilities for sharing photos of your own special moments and posting images from NIKON IMAGE SPACE is now easier than ever.

If you are an existing user of MyPicturetown.com, the overhaul of the site does not jeopardise your work as the site will automatically update and upgrade your account.
