    Think that idea will get any traffic? There will soon be a mass watermark option for premium members. Any suggestions on what features to add?

    ya it looks simple enough
    but make it look better like change the background of the input boxes from green to something else
    just give it a nicer design

    It works perfectly in FF. Upload doesnt work on IE due to some "security" flaws. And currently the Pictures it displays are temporary. But I may also turn it into an image hosting site.


    Can you tell me the pictures you were trying to watermark as well as the font, size, color, and text?

    I think you should add IE Support, despite its Flaws its one of the Built-in Browser that most people rely on. Furthermore work on the design a bit, its not at all attractive. Otherwise a Resourceful Tool.

    Well it's not really that I don't want IE support, just that it is hard to obtain while still keeping the "Stay on one page" functionality. But I may add it.

    I agree with sigmass2004. Also, as to your question regarding if we think the site will receive traffic. I'm a strong believe that for newly created sites, traffic depends on content and marketing. You can have a cool design (which I like simplicity, so your design seems IMO), but if your content sucks ... no one will bother to revisit or stay for that matter. Second, if nobody actually knows about your site, no one will visit either (use reason here ... don't submit your site to a bunch of FFA sites either).

    For this particular page, I wouldn't worry about its traffic. Develop the tool, add some pages describing how the tool works, and perhaps share the link to the page in some relevant blogs or forums, and you'll be fine.

    Good work.

    Definatly to simple dude at least make a better background
    People Aren't going to buy your service if you dont even put time into making the site look good
    They are going to think that your watermarks are going to look as bad as the site
    And if this is for traffic not a good route they will close and never remeber the url
    So make it look good

    Very brief and simple, I suggest you should web 2.0 convert it.

    The current page looks very dated, I would invest a few bucks in getting a custom logo created and get rid of the graphics around the edges. This type of site would work very well with just complete black and a nice logo IMO.

    As to your question as to whether the site will get traffic, that has more to do with advertising, promotion and SEO.

    good luck

    I know you're getting the layout redone. You need to make sure it's cross browser compliant though.
