New Flash Application looking for feedback

**samcboulder** · 06-12-2008, 09:27 AM

www.pizap.com is a flash based web application written in AS3 that allows you to upload a photo, add stickers, text and paint, and then save out a JPG to share or download.

I am looking for feedback and any bugs that you come accross.

Thank you for your help!!

Great, really great. I'd concentrate on simple things, and lay off the brushes a little. Really like the navigation and use, but sometime it is a little difficult to move an already placed object. Looking at the gallery, I think it's a bit jokey. I'd love teh site to be more serious, so you could use it to make email postcards, greetings images, and I'd concentrate on that area. Also, no favicon, and I'm interested to know where you got the name from? The two links on the after-creation page need capitalisation, or some work otherwise. Love the colours, not sure about a role for the website in my life, I think you should run some polls about what your user wants from the site. Keep it up!

Very cool site - I might use this myself. I like the whole flash idea your incorporating, I haven't seen that at other image upload sites. Its simple and easy to navigate through and the colors are also easy on the eyes.

But how would someone contact you for business deals or something? Maybe add a contact link on the bottom?

Interesting idea, and pretty fun to use. Nice job. I have to agree, if you want to go commercial, make it more professional, for presentations or emails, etc. Like a quick altern to photoshop. G'luck.

Thank you for the GREAT feedback so far.

I guess i should give a little more info.

Future addtions that are coming soon:

1. ability to bring forward/back to control Z-order
2. replacing delete button with Recycle Bin to allow drag to trash
3. making Save button more prominant and seperate
4. Adding basic photo editing to the master photo (Zoom, Pan, Rotate)
5. Integration with Zazzle to allow user to put thier creation on a few thousand different products, of which i should get a decent %.

I will also be adding some more basic stuff like contact info for questions/partneship inquiries. A "suggest a new sticker or feature" link. Some very basic instructions in a help button... etc.

I really do appreciate the feedback, and plan to use at least two of the suggestions made above already!

I completely disagree. Excellent idea and it has great functionality.
Although, I think the reflection of the arrows in the gallery are a bit too opaque.
