Test Drive the New Photos App

July 14 2010, 11:55am

The new Photos app is almost here! This new app is so much more then just an update, it's a completely new app from the ground up. The current Photos app was one of the first tools that SnapPages ever launched so it's been out there for quite some time and it felt a bit rusty compared to some of the new apps. It used some outdated technologies and we were pretty limited because of it. One example of this was the fact that the version of flash it was written in could only load Jpeg images, which is why we don't currently allow any other format.For this, and many other reasons, I decided it was time to kick the old one to the curb and come up with something new. Now it's not completely ready to be launched but I decided to share it with you early if you want to start test driving it. If you want to try it out, all you need to do is login to your SnapPages account and then go to the following url:http://snappages.com/apps/photos That's it! If you do try it out please give me your feedback. We still have some other really cool features that we are adding before the launch, like the ability to import and export photos to other sites like facebook, flickr, and a few others. Enjoy!
