My buddy and I created ImagePoke over the course of a week as a side project. We're pretty new to web development, so we're learning a lot as we go.<p>The idea for ImagePoke is pretty simple:<p>1) Upload/Provide a URL for an image
2) Crop said image
3) Doodle on said image
4) Provide recipient address details
5) Provide payment ($3.00) via stripe
6) Doodled image arrives at recipient's address as a postcard in ~ 7 days<p>A Picture of the first two ImagePokes ever:<p><a href="http://www.imgur.com/XRltBxH" rel="nofollow">http://www.imgur.com/XRltBxH</a><p>We've got full "account" support (at the end of the process you can create an account that stores recipient addresses and payment methods), but this is optional.<p>Any suggestions/criticisms would be massively appreciated, as I said, we're both quite new at this..<p>Thanks!<p>- Tim
You have a great conversion process. I eased right into creating the card and thought 3 bucks is cheap enough to try once so I did it. I guess improvements could be: Filters on the picture, different types of stencils/stamps, and a smaller drawing tool for when I really want to get my art on.
Only competition in this space that my google search found was services that send an unedited postcard. Anyone else doing this?
