Need more description on the first page. Maybe the 4 easy steps from the other page?
Thanks for the feedback.
I can't use this without knowing how long you'll store whatever I send you.
What kind of assurances would you like? If I implement accounts, would you be comfortable with storage? Would you want to be able to choose on a per-picture basis?
Thanks for taking a look.

My only advice is to make the instructions clearer. It's quite a simple idea "send a whiteboard photo to XYZ, get a clean version back" but I had to go to a second page, scroll down quite a bit, then click a few other pages to find out exactly what happens when I send a photo. I might be dimmer than the average customer though.

I'll have to add that to the terms and the faq - I'm using google apps to handle the email. The app issues a delete immediately after processing. Right now I'm clearing out the trash folder (edit: sorry the sent folder) in the google account about every day or so. What kind of assurances would you like?

Lots of idea's get thrown up on whiteboards where I work, but the boss man is a little paranoid. In order to become a regular user I would need to know that nothing I email over is being kept.
I understand the insecurities of email in general, but there's a difference between available for the duration of the email transmission and available for days after the email has been sent.
Thanks for being responsive.
Nice and simple. Good job. You probably know this, there's http://www.scanr.com/ that tackles a similar problem.
I wasn't aware of that, thanks for the link! Looks like it's more advanced than what I'm doing at the moment... Thanks, Kyle
My suggestion to you is to keep running with your idea of making your service dead simple to use. I love the idea of just sending it to an email address -- reminds me of posterous, but for image processing.
Really great idea, but most advanced whiteboard cleanup software includes perspective correction and things like that.. As far as I can tell this just is a color-scale modifier and sharpener. However the idea behind the service, whiteboard cleanup via email, is pretty sound. I would love to have this with features that allow me to send the pic along with list of 'end product' recipients. Need some https secured site…
Thanks, and yes, the mvp was basic pic cleanup via email. Things like user accounts and on-line storage are on the plan. As far as forwarding, how would you like that to work? Configure on the site? Put them in the Subject line? To keep down on spam I'd have to require an account for that kind of feature. Thanks for trying it out. Kyle
I'm not sure what libs you're using for image processing, but OpenCV has a lot of this type of functionality.
