The "Try It" link should be huge, in the middle of the page, and not below the fold.

That's a good one, I'll start working on it right now!

Maybe I should make also a Sign Up button next to it.

(Try It) (Sign Up)

I think of placing those buttons below the tag line.

Thanks.

Is there a way to go full-screen? I hit F11 but there is still a small bar at the top of the screen.

IE7? No, that bar is for "security". Firefox/Opera/etc: real fullscreen.

Firefox 3

This one is missing quite a bit of the graphic stuff that Zenter had (but seems to have lost for Google Presentations). Rotations of text and images and browsing of Flickr and Google Images for images with drag and drop. Font handling in Zenter was also awesome to behold. It tried to replicate some of the really hard stuff in PowerPoint, that this one doesn't (yet). Looks very slick, though. Definitely a contender, p…

We are working on the graphic stuff right now, we have awesome ideas for it, I think we should have it done in a couple of weeks. I think that one of the things that makes us different is the ability to edit presentations between a group of people in real time. We worked a lot on the design too, we believe that a good tool must have a nice design and be easy to use.

"I think that one of the things that makes us different is the ability to edit presentations between a group of people in real time."

I'm pretty sure Zenter was already demoing this feature, as well. You've picked a hard target to top. ;-)

That's weird. Are you opening the presentation in a tab? I'm trying it in Ubuntu and Windows XP and it works as it should (no bar).

Can you put up a few sample presentations that I can just go and view right away? (I guess there will be some under Explore soon). The editor looks very professional and cool but I want to see the end result too.

Here is a sample PreZentation. http://prezentit.com/german/6 Hope you like it :P

I like it, good work, but there should be a 'close window' button on the final slide.

Very nice work. I tried the editor and was impressed.

+ I love the way the font size changed as I mouseover'd.

+ ALL of the text in the front page graphics looks like its messed up. I guess it was some effect that was supposed to look nice, but it just looks blurry/jagged to me.

+ It wasn't immediate obvious how to "try it".

+ I do not like the fullscreen popup "Try it" link. I would much prefer a new window or just the same window.

+ I created a little presentation and then clicked "Publish" which gave a weird blank window (because I'm not registered I assume). Then I looked elsewhere before finding "Show". Maybe I'm slow, but that was confusing and I almost gave up before seeing what my presentation looked like.

+ I want an account with a sub-domain "rep", so I can login at http://rep.prezentit.com/
