Ladies and gentlemen, I am very pleased to announce that today we rolled out #dbv3, our biggest update in DailyBooth history.

It’s live…like literally right now. Go and have a nose around then let us know what you think in the comments.

Along with the obvious design and UI updates, there is a load of awesome new features to play with. I’ll outline some of the more awesome ones below.

Notifications!
Notifications are something that DailyBooth has needed for a long time. Up until now there was no way of knowing if someone commented on your picture unless you actually went to it and checked. Many comments on old photos were missed because there was no way of knowing they were there!

There is now a site-wide notifications bar that alerts you when anything happens that related to you.

Quilt view
We added this cool view to the profile pages so you can easily see the latest 50 pictures a user has taken at a glance. The quilt view is especially useful when you’re  scrolling back in time, trying to find a specific picture from a few months ago.

Sticky comment bar
You no longer have to spend ages scrolling down on popular pictures to leave a comment. The new sticky comment bar is always visible so you can leave a comment from wherever you are in a thread!

Group messaging
You can now start private group conversations with your closest friends on DailyBooth. We’ve been playing with this internally for a few weeks now and it’s a lot of fun!

Free stickers!!!

*UPDATE* – We only had enough stickers to give away to the first 250 responses and we already have reached that limit. Thanks to everyone who was involved!!

To celebrate our launch, we’re giving away free DailyBooth #dbv3 stickers. Want a (super rare) sticker? Here’s what you have to do.

• Take a picture of yourself showing the new logo in some creative way. You could draw it somewhere, make a sign or do something utterly wild and amazing that we can’t even think of.
• Send out a tweet linking to this blog post.
• Email hello@dailybooth.com with a link to your picture, a link to your tweet and include your address so we know where to send the sticker!

P.S. The first ever DailyBooth picture was taken 2 years and 3 days ago. I think this is a fitting update to celebrate its birth!

There were so many great entries that it was incredibly hard to whittle this down to 3 winners. A big thanks to @roberto and everyone at Throwboy for making this competition possible.

So, in no particular order, the winners…

This picture thread was well and truly epic. @nerdyislandgirl embarked on the very brave task of drawing everybody who replied. Awesome!

@jerryhcooke

@jerryhcooke‘s idea of making a flickbook style animation out of the picture replies he received seemed crazy at first but amazingly it actually worked. He even mashed the pictures up into a video.

@wheezywaiter dumping water over the comment thread (and subsequently all the commenters) was most entertaining.

Congratulations you three! You each win a Throwboy pillow of your choice. Send me a message letting me know which pillow you want and where to send it.

Sorry if you didn’t win this time. We’ll be having another competition again soon.
