Not to get into a flamewar about OS'es, but why start out with Safari? If you're looking for a large demographic, which I presume is the case, it would make the most sense to develop primarily for IE,then Firefox, then Safari.<p>Is it a question of trying to get opinion leaders (typically mac users) to try it out first, are there technical reasons or is it something else?<p>Just curious.

1 statement, 2 questions.<p>Statement: awesome<p>Question: can it handle RAW files?<p>Question: any business plan that you can share? I ask because we deal with pro photographers (lots of them). If you wanted a paying customer, I would license this from you.

Why don't most photo sites support HTML5 drag and drop uploads yet? That would reduce complexity in the user experience, and no plugin required.

At the moment I plug in my camera, iPhoto opens, I click 'Import All', go back to my browser click Browse, click Media, click iPhoto, click 'Last Import' and click the photo I'm after.<p>Whilst you are saving a few clicks out of that routine, you're also asking me to install something that ties me to Safari so that I can save a couple of clicks and not have a local copy; so I haven't bothered trying it.<p>I think I understand the value you're trying to offer but I'm not convinced that what you have is sufficiently better than what already exists (at least on OS X).

I wonder, do modern people store all their photos in the cloud? I still have folders, and only upload the occasional pic into the cloud.<p>Not to detract from picurio. My initial reaction was "I don't need it", but it could well be one of those things you don't want to miss anymore if you have tried them once.

&#62;It works by using a Mac/Safari plugin that installs in seconds and doesn't require a browser restart. It makes uploading a cinch. Why don't all photo sites do this? We have no idea.<p>I would be willing to bet that some people don't like installing a plugin and that is why the other photo sites don't do that.
