Pete I just realized I may have posted the possible bug error in the wrong place.

The arrows on the right and left of the pull down menu, the pull down in creating a book, calendar or card do not seem to do anything. Is this just not turned on or broken.

Comment on Business Cards

Would it be possible to let the first text block be a hole for a .jpg logo?

Comment on the new PhotoCentral

When the product, such as cards or books are chosen the first picture in the album is placed in the book or card is it possible that it could be blank? Or a clearer way to remove the photo.

Thanks for the feedback, Mike.  In Summary:

1. Yes, the arrows aren't working in Safari/Firefox/Chrome.  I found and fixed the problem and will post the fix today (I'm working on a few other issues that I want to resolve before the next update).

2. The business cards are straight from Photo Tidings.  I'm not sure these are necessarily the best options.  If you can suggest other templates or template vendors, please do.

3. Perhaps it's not clear enough, but just hover over the photo and click the "X" icon on the photo edit bar - the photo will be removed, leaving a blank.

Build 89 is now live and has the arrow fix. I also fixed some problems relating to the positioning of the photos in the photo bar at the top of the specialty designer page as rendered on Safari and Chrome.

Here are some sample PDFs of our folded cards. You can download and print them to see how PhotoCentral 3 output looks on your printer. These files are designed for 10"x7" paper. When you print them, be sure to choose "short-side" duplexing.

I have another suggestion. I like the photo book idea a lot, however, I would like to have something that would go head to head with all of the "W" stores. I know the QOOP is doing the less expensive albums, how hard would it be to add more options to the photo book creation page that would utilize a laserjet or inkjet printer in-house? We would have to purchase one anyway to handle the folding greeting cards, why not have the ability to do the lesser expensive albums and have the nice albums as an alternative to them? There is about a $18-$30 pricepoint that would be cool to hit...I saw several inexpensive binding systems at PMA LV this year. Anyway, it would give us a variety that the "W"'s don't have and the ability to sell up to a nicer photo book. In the end, I think we would sell more of the nicer photo books and not lose customers to our discount competitors.

Your wish is my command.  I put the first "cheaper" book on pc3platinum.  It's based on a Unibind cover and can be printed on a color laser.  We're working with Unibind and some printer vendors to get more detailed specs, workflow, and equipment suggestions.

Hello, Just got going on the Beta and I love it. Excellent job!!! Of course I need to make comments on something I would like to see added (Sorry....) Is there anyway to add branding to some of the products. It would be great to add something to the back of the folded cards. "Created by the coolest lab on the.... " You get it. A logo would be Ideal.

Looking forward to all the new things this Product can/will do.
Cheers!
