Picoshot Increases New Requests Per Day

September 8th, 2009

ShrinkTheWeb has lifted Picoshot user's "New Requests" limit to a PRO account level. This will help users to get more new requests than ever before. We hope that this improves the usefulness of the service for you!

Picoshot Scales Back During Economic Downturn

December 19th, 2008

Due to the worsening economy (which we hope to see rebound by March of 2009!), ShrinkTheWeb has decided to scale back Picoshot operations for an indeterminate time.

Therefore, no NEW thumbnails will be generated by Picoshot during this service suspension. Any existing thumbnails will continued to be shown and will not affect current users.

This is necessary in order to continue providing the utmost service (for FREE!) to Shrink The Web's (visit site) primary customers and this move helps to cut costs.

We would send notice of this action to our users but since there is no registration required, there is no way to notify anyone directly. Therefore, this news bulletin will serve as notice for those who visit Picoshot to determine why NEW screenshots are on-hold temporarily.

We wish you happy holidays and an improving 2009!

Picoshot Supports Subdomains

July 25th, 2008

We are pleased to announce that Picoshot now also supports captures of subdomains as well.

This should open the doors for several of you who are looking to expand the usefulness of Picoshot's free service in your designs!

Picoshot Back Online

July 24th, 2008

Picoshot outgrew it's ability to sustain itself as a completely free thumbnail service provider and it subsequently went offline for a short period. However, Picoshot has received a helping hand to re-open the doors and provide this free service for users once again.

We will be gradually implementing the same features that you were used to and we plan to support requests via image.picoshot.com.

We do not plan to integrate the new features originally hinted to by the previous owner, but we will continue to allow the same great benefits at no charge. If you are looking for features not found here at picoshot, then we invite you to consider the services of our new sister company, ShrinkTheWeb, developed by Brandon Elliott of Neosys Consulting.
