my opinion: half a rip-off. They encourage you to post highly appreciated photos, you get 700,000 views, then if you don't subscribe they close your channel without warning. Wasted time, forget it. Yo... See more

I felt happy after joining YouPic

I felt happy after joining YouPic, I got a lot of photo inspiration and brilliant ideas, I was very happy when my photos received appreciation and made me even more enthusiastic to learn photography skills. Thank you YouPic and hopefully it will become a more developed platform.

YouPic is the best photography sharing…

YouPic is the best photography sharing platform I have found so far. I have been using the site for a few years now. I am impressed by the global participation on the site and am delighted to see photographs by people from all over the world.

It's exciting to find pictures of things I never knew existed, seen by people in so many ways. There are professionals here, and amateurs too. Hobbyists and artists as well, and it all makes for a pretty great collection.

I like that the "Inspiration" stream of pictures are curated by real humans. I like that YouPic users are generally photography enthusiasts and the site hasn't lost its way by tracing the path of social media companies like Instagram. Photography and visual art is still the reason to exist for this site and for a huge majority of users.

Recently YouPic did a site-wide upgrade. This is a difficult thing to do. There are bugs and problems with it *as with every software upgrade ever*, and some people are pretty vocal about it. Some things are kind of broken, and somethings don't work as expected. I have been in touch with YouPic team in the site's direct message system. They have been making every effort to get things straight.

Since the update, my photos are being seen and like by more people, the site is faster, and photographs display more quickly. The navigation is a little more clear now and easy to use.

I am really pleased, and update bumps aside, enjoy the site and the photography now as much as when I discovered it.

YouPic deserves your serious consideration if you're looking for a place that's about photography and not just numbers of followers.

I really like the new youpic layout

I really like the new youpic layout, everything is much clearer, nicer and it goes faster with liking pictures and the pictures are of better quality. I see that many people complain and want the old youpic to return, but people need to have a little more patience and will to get used to this new, slightly different layout. I hope that this will happen with time and that they start using it lightly again. Many greetings cecilia444

New Portal is too buggy, and "too active" messages are very, very annoying

There are so many bugs in the new portal that was released about 4 days ago that its impossible to list them all. Youpic have said they are working on the issues but that's pretty poor. You should never release a half-finished, half-tested portal, and always always get external validation from a testing company or select alpha and beta groups before messing with the old functionality. There are many flaws but the latest and most annoying one is after being on the site for a relatively short period of time (one hour) I now keep getting "I'm having trouble sending messages, I often get the message: "You've been a bit too active. Please try again later." which is incredibly annoying and bound to drive users away. I mean if you can't acess your account to do what you need to do what's the point. Pity because this site has massive potential. I liked the old portal albeit msissing some functionality. The new design was unecessary and is confusing. Many options are buried deep or non-existent now. Others are buried in the rather poor navigation. I really hope YouPic get their act together, specifcally the very annoying "You have been too active" messaging. I mean how can you be TOO active?

Poor customer service

Poor customer service, nude unacceptable content, spam and more spam with inappropriate comments on profile photos. With a recent update some features stopped working. The developers are not interested. I subsequently deleted all my photos and cleared my profile of any personal information. I'll never go back!

YouPic is Unreasonable and Petty

I had an account with YouPic for about 10 years. I am retired now and was billed about a week ago (Jan. '24) for a coming year, at $119.00. I did not know or remember my renewal date, but when I found my bank account debited for this amount, I emailed and messaged YouPic to please terminate my account and refund the amount I was billed for a year I will not be using. Their response was "no way" since I did not cancel before the renewal date. I consider this to be pretty petty on their part. I also asked them to remove my photos from their pages. They did terminate my account, but have left my photos on their pages against my will and request. I find this behavior and response to be small minded and unreasonable. I will not recommend them to anyone. They don't give a damn about their loyal and long term clients.

Spam comments and emails discouraging

I joined You Pic and everything was going well. Lately I started getting spam emails from someone asking me to check out nude photos. I said I was not interested, and it stopped. Then it started happening again. I started reading stories of people getting hacked via You Pic so deleted my account as I don't want to get hacked. Maybe I made a mistake, but I am not willing to take the chance.

Riddled with AI images

YouPic is now riddled with AI generated images. It's a site for photographers who actually pick up a camera, not for computer generated images sat at a desk.

Youpic is a great website for…

Youpic is a great website for photographers, beginners & professionals both. Before joining youpic I use to share my Photography photos on social media websites with friends but I use to not get much appreciation because my friends didn't understand photography but on youpic so many photographers World wide are appreciating my work. Youpic has boosted my confidence so much as a photographer. Really Happy to join youpic. I feel every photographer whether you are a beginner or professional should join youpic.com
