New Feature: Posts

We just rolled out Posts on Daybreak. Like Instagram, a post is a photo + caption. But unlike social media, where each user has their own private feed, all posts on Daybreak go to a single, public feed.

We call this page the Gallery because it’s like walking into an art gallery: everyone starts with the same experience—”Here’s what’s happening in our community RIGHT NOW”.

How it works

  • Each photographer shares one post at a time to the Gallery. When you post a new photo, it appears at the top and your previous post is removed. This keeps the site fresh and dynamic while creating equal opportunity to have your work seen.

  • The Gallery is arranged chronologically, newest images on top.

  • For Premium members, all your posts are saved on your profile, so anyone who wants to see more of your work can do so there, and Posts replaces your 5-image portfolio. You can now share unlimited images over time, with one always featured in the Gallery.

  • For Free members, your profile displays your latest post in place of your website screenshot.

What’s next

  • Filtering and Engagements (Likes, Saves, etc.) are still in development but coming soon.

The initial idea behind Daybreak was to create a place for photographers to share their work and be discovered off social media.

Give it a try and let us know what you think!
