The main benefit of your program for me is the easy of use to quickly post pics to the site. Not having to hook up my iPhone to the PC and then uploading from the PC is huge. I actually use this site ( compared to other photo sites ) because it is no hassle to get them online for others to see with minimal work on my part.yes librarynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3049742205071565759.post-5383440495701389792008-08-29T17:09:00.000-07:002008-08-29T17:09:00.000-07:00At first I couldn't figure out why Fuzzy left out the ability to use camera roll but after reading it makes some sense and it wouldn't matter to me which direction you guys choose. Now I don't know if it's just me but I can't figure out how to allow only friends to view pictures? If this is not a option it would be a great addition, there's certian parts of my life I would rather not share with the public.Erickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14712940763592627694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3049742205071565759.post-8620614185517220492008-08-29T08:48:00.000-07:002008-08-29T08:48:00.000-07:00I would say leave it as is. Its a great concept to have a medium that is real time NOW life sharing. If users want more photos sharing ability to upload from their camera or computer, there are plenty of mediums out there that will let them do this. I say keep it simple and pure. This will also help to keep it less congested.mrokinawahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18311843768980382421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3049742205071565759.post-54598032117956270342008-08-29T06:33:00.000-07:002008-08-29T06:33:00.000-07:00I definitely vote "yes" to allowing photos to be taken from the Camera Roll.<BR/><BR/>A good tool <A HREF="http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&q=%22gets+out+of+the+way%22+interface+features&btnG=Search" REL="nofollow">gets out of the way</A> and allows you to do that which you'd like to do.<BR/><BR/>Give the people a platform and let them do as they wish. Not allowing importing from the Camera Roll seems arbitrary, and decreases the value of Fuzzyshot.<BR/><BR/>I would probably use Fuzzyshot nearly exclusively from the Camera Roll, once that feature is available.Eric Silvahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06036761784528525729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3049742205071565759.post-5955150189047738152008-08-27T18:17:00.000-07:002008-08-27T18:17:00.000-07:00Don't allow access to the Photo App.Chadhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13405847494987147441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3049742205071565759.post-43131024766513316052008-08-25T17:12:00.000-07:002008-08-25T17:12:00.000-07:00I would like to be able to upload pics from my library, I have pics that were n the moment from my digital camera as well as my iPhone. I have pics that would add some color to my blog. Why don't you let those who want to be able to upload turn a feature on which allows you to do so. And for those that don't click the feature off.uniquE'http://www.blogger.com/profile/11791109593238428404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3049742205071565759.post-58376739836671342092008-08-25T14:22:00.000-07:002008-08-25T14:22:00.000-07:00Perhaps an answer would be to open a second site just for the purpose of uploading static photos from the camera's gallery, I see the potential for you to maybe tap other phones. I know there have been times when I was able to take a succession of photos more quickly with the native camera controls that I would have loved to have blogged up onto the site...these would have shown a fluid of motion that can not be captured with your applet.Sandrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10956160649185007800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3049742205071565759.post-9176256190021533702008-08-25T07:53:00.000-07:002008-08-25T07:53:00.000-07:00it would be nice if I could at least use an app like Picoli to do a quick edit on the iphone's image before upload to fuzzyshot. I agree that letting folks upload anything and everything would simply ruin the cool, fuzzy vibe... but being able to do a quick edit to adjust contract, color, etc. would be awesome.skiphunthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02113688750990330565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3049742205071565759.post-62496323631010516682008-08-25T06:58:00.000-07:002008-08-25T06:58:00.000-07:00I like the idea of people knowing that these are images on the fly. I agree that I'd like the process to be faster. If I'm trying to capture a moment, it kind of sucks when the moment is nowhere near when you click the button. You have to be kind of jedi and push the button before the event. I wish it would allow me to take landscape photos. Otherwise, I think it's great.herosmurfnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3049742205071565759.post-59986628242181907922008-08-24T06:01:00.000-07:002008-08-24T06:01:00.000-07:00Thanks for the tip. I'm new to iPhone and newer to FuzzyShot and didn't realize the FuzzyShot images saved to my iPhone library as well. This enables me to e-mail post them to other blogs. The ability to DOWNLOAD FuzzyShot images from the web page might be nice, but not a big deal.<BR/><BR/>So I'd vote NO. It works great the way it is. I think enabling uploads would for sure have people using it for reasons other than it was intended ...and I like knowing the images I'm looking at were definitely someone's spur of the moment urge to capture a little moment in their life.Bob Rodkinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09720043094697896541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3049742205071565759.post-45234528848167692742008-08-24T03:03:00.000-07:002008-08-24T03:03:00.000-07:00Ha, nice thought Stinky, but since the photo's are blog posts, accompanied with text, I'm quite sure the photo's date and time is created when you publish the entry. However, you bring up a good point. The Categories do have a 24 hour limit, thus assuring that photo's remain in their proper place in time. I too support whatever decision the founders make. I'm sure there will be many upcoming photo blog apps with many options. I wish these guys luck, and I'll stick with them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3049742205071565759.post-61761816192574325442008-08-24T02:46:00.000-07:002008-08-24T02:46:00.000-07:00Possible Solution:<BR/><BR/>Does Fuzzyshot display the date and time for each photo based on "Time of Post" or the "Time-Stamped Photo?" I understand you have a 24 hour limit to upload photos per Category. If your app recognizes the time-stamp, and a user imports a photo from Camera Roll within 24 hours, the photo's should go to it's proper place. If so, it's still an iPhone shot, while keeping our timeline in order.Stinky Jnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3049742205071565759.post-36770710741087755022008-08-24T01:50:00.000-07:002008-08-24T01:50:00.000-07:00That's a tough one. I love your product, and will support whatever decision you make, but the reality is, my iPhone photo life doesn't revolve around Fuzzyshot. When I use your product, I lose the ability to capture a special moment with multiple shots. I'm too busy in your app, hoping I get 1 descent shot.

However, as it is, I ahve to choose whether to make an image part of my iPhone library and as such, send it to a blogger blog I write, or use exclusively as a FuzzyShot. An alternative solution could be to enable FuzzyShot images to also be e-mailed and/or transferred to the IPhone photo album as well. That would work just as well for me.Bob Rodkinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09720043094697896541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3049742205071565759.post-48199316059781155622008-08-23T14:21:00.000-07:002008-08-23T14:21:00.000-07:00Gee, Spookey, why don't you tell us what your working on, if anything, so we can open you up to criticism.<BR/><BR/>Even if you say is true, there is always room for competition and channels of growth.<BR/><BR/>Are you the same guy that complains about developers charging 99 cents per app for their creativity, labor and skill?

That's why why I chuckled a bit at the "chat with the founders" thing. All I can say is..."your name may be Kevin, but you ain't Kevin Rose.". I know Kevin Rose--about as well as I'd know you if I took you up on the chat. We exchanged a couple of emails back before he was "KEVIN ROSE!?!". Back in the TechTV days. After he was a host (with Patrick Norton) but before G4. I know Norton about as well from his dl.tv days. <BR/><BR/>Here's my advice. If you REALLY want to be Kevin Rose (and not just do a little code you can sell to Google in a few months) you need something DIFFERENT. Maybe that's the "in the moment" quality. Maybe that's already too common--I see a lot of those out there. Whatever it is-~find it and stick with it. And remember that that other Kevin is a VERY busy guy. It's not a hobby anymore. <BR/><BR/>And I guarantee you'll DESTROY your chance at being the next Kevin Rose if you implement anything resembling the "friends of iPhone owners" section. That may be the stupidest suggestion ever made online. And remember that Digg respects it's users wants, but still has to, in the end, do what's best for Digg as a whole. They have often had to disappoint some users to best serve ALL users.<BR/><BR/>Good luck and best wishes. And send me an email so, when you ARE famous, I can say "I exchanged a few emails with him back then.". Maybe I'll be smart enough to keep yours. Nobody kept email back then...spookyhttp://www.fuzzyshot.com/spookynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3049742205071565759.post-62687278119113358092008-08-23T11:51:00.000-07:002008-08-23T11:51:00.000-07:00Yea, yea, you've heard me before. For a product that isn't mine, I sure give it a lot of thought. And I have a day job.<BR/><BR/>PLOT: Definitely CAMERA ROLL, but not Library. This expands our options while keeping it all iPhone Fuzzy. I have to decide whether I'm going to take 1 Fuzzyshot photo, or multiple Camera shots. I like to take multiple shots and post the best shot that captures the moment. It's still NOT importing.<BR/><BR/>SUB PLOT: What I like about the current state of Fuzzyshot; Our lives are captured as they are. Everything is linear. We tell a story with images. Otherwise it's just a scatter of photo's.<BR/><BR/>So, even if you decide not to use the Library, but consider Camera Roll, you still have a dilemma. It messes with the natural order. Personally, I think the Camera Roll is a sacrifice worth taking. I like to see photo's that paint a story, and I don't think Camera Roll disrupts that idea enough. A little, but not the magnitude of imported photo's.<BR/><BR/>Fuzzyshot could share the photo blogging market by opening itself to Library import , OR you can strive to be the market leader for mobile blogging. You're not limiting yourself. The possibilities of accepting additional phone manufacturers photo's or future camera with upload capabilities are bright in this market.simplyKENTnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3049742205071565759.post-34971905449061620832008-08-22T22:41:00.000-07:002008-08-22T22:41:00.000-07:00Thank you all for your responses.
