Really nice implementation.<p>Couple of comments:<p>The input box doesn't give visual feedback on text highlight. I was trying a few URLs and it took me a second to realise I had selected the text to overwrite (disappeared on backspace).<p>The save dialog always presents the filename as slideshare-as-a.gif. Suggest you use the last part of the slideshare link to generate the filename.<p>Updating the location bar dynamically when adjusting settings as well as using query params is always useful.<p>Being stuck with a wiki that won't allow linking to slideshare, I can see a real world use for this.<p>Is there an API available?<p>Minor points aside, looks and works great.
Limited to 256 colors, bloated (poor) compression, and overall terrible old legacy format.<p>I'd throw that image at gfycat.com faster than you can say "next slide please". Even the twitter example given -- twitter has already converted the gif to mp4. Why waste the bandwidth uploading something that's just going to get transcoded anyway?
I will just wait for a animated gif output for Pandoc, which already turns my Markdown (and other files) into beautiful slide shows in a variety of formats.
Nice product. Some constructive advice - whilst naughty swear words are fine between friends and on your blog, on your product's home page it gives the impression of childishness and unprofessionalism.
