Welcome Fujifilm & Freestyle Photographic, now APUG Partner Level Sponsors!

[Sean]

Hi All,

We have two new partners, Fujifilm & Freestyle Photographic, helping to fund our community. Elevator will no longer be a partner level sponsor but will remain with us as an advertiser. I can't thank Bob & Kevin enough for the support Elevator has given us over the years via their partner contributions and managing conferences and workshops. I continue to find what they are doing extremely valuable for our community and I look forward to ventures with them in the future. Moving forward, I am excited to be working with Fujifilm and Freestyle, two top notch companies. We really have come a long way. I'm proud of this community we have forged and the cause we enjoy so much. Over the next few hours I will be rolling out a new footer, homepage graphics and forums for Fujifilm & Freestyle.

Thanks!
Sean

That's fantastic news! Two great companies.

Regards, Art.

[RoNinHeart]

Cool! I don't know what I'd do without Acros and my Freestyle supplied Rodinal.

[MurrayMinchin]

You should be proud of all you've done Sean. You're playing in the big leagues now. Congratulations!

Murray

[Travis Nunn]

Awesome! Acros is my favorite film and over the last couple of years Freestyle has won me over as a customer.

[Robert Brummitt]

Congrats on getting Fujifilm. If we mention we're an Apug member do we get a discount?

[dances_w_clouds]

Discount good! Same price bad!

Good morning, Sean;

Fujifilm is here? Is there any way that we could encourage them to make a 4 inch by 5 inch sized "instant film pack" similar to their 2 & 1/4 by 3 & 3/4 size that they offer already? Or perhaps single sheet 4 by 5 instant film?

[Sean]

Once I have their forums up you'll be able to converse with them directly on APUG. I'll keep you posted.

But that is a conversation more appropriate to a different thread.


Congrats to Sean and APUG, and welcome FujiFilm and Freestyle!!!

[Alex Bishop-Thorpe]

Simply excellent news - and the new footer layout is pretty snazzy too. Congratulations Sean and APUG, and a big welcome to Freestyle and FujiFilm.

[Sean]

There is some code causing a gap at the very bottom of the footer, I'm getting closer to finding it..

Anyway, that's great stuff Sean. With their choose-film initiative in the UK and opening up their own direct order service, Fuji certainly seem to be giving all the signs that they are committed to growing (or perhaps redefining/fighting the decline in would be better phrases) the analogue market, and this is another very positive sign. I may even have to start trying to like Velvia at this rate :D. (I love their instant films and Provia 400X already though, so it's definitely great news.)


(Edit: Oh, the footer looks great on Safari, by the way.)

Good on ya Sean. This place just keeps getting better and better.

[jnanian]

Good stuff, they are quality companies. I'm a happy customer of Freestyle both by mail order & in person. I'm also a user of Fuji products, particularly the Neopan 1600, plus I've shot truckloads of Provia.

[Steve Smith]

Excellent news.

On a pedantic note, on the partners page is this text:

Much to our relief these these companies stepped up to the plate and saved the day

One too many instances of 'these'
