    Hello,

    Last week I launched www.magofun.com and I'm looking for some feedback.

    Users can upload any photo and put it on the cover of a unique magazine. Users can then publish their magazine to their own social networking profile, website, blog, or anywhere they'd like. They can also download the file in a variety of sizes to their computer.

    We actually just got listed in Killer Startups which is amazing too!

    We'd love some feedback, votes or new members

    Thank-you

    Absolutely a great idea and site I see a winner here.:) Will it be possible to change the text to the articles or the name of the magazine in the future?

    i saw a similar site up for sale on Flippa, very good / catchy idea that should produce some good traffic from social networking sites and also some good revenue once monetized. Well done, you won't need my luck with this one but best of luck anyways.

    I'd work on the layout. The page elements don't line up very neatly, and makes the overall appearance a bit hap-hazard. Also, the greyscale menu bar at the top doesn't fit the fun appearance of the logo and the rest of the color scheme. The graphic images on the magazine covers themselves could be a bit sharper too.

    That my friend is a great idea! It has a great look and feel to it, and it's just plain cool! Is adsense the only way you have it monitized right now?

    from what i remember reading http://www.magmypic.com/ owns a lot of this space so I am wondering how are you doing with traffic? Can you give us some details and also your reasoning behind making a site that already exists... i mean, there is nothing wrong with a little competition but just wondering.

    Magmypic has been there for 2 years and my site only for a month.Well the competition is bit high but am sure we can get some share of it.
