The image on the homepage makes me think this family is running for their lives from a horde of zombies, but seem fairly happy about it. Gotta love stock photography.

#32This sounds awesome. Can I ask how you go about getting shipping details, etc from the sender if they simply give you a name? Is there more to it?
In the sign up process you enter the shipping info for who you want to send prints to

#34Love the simplicity of the instructions and minimal amount of links on page.

#35I'd like to offer an observation about the copy at http://www.pigeonpic.com . The larger slogan, "Never lose touch with friends and family", is vague. The smaller one, "Send photographs through the mail with just a text message", is specific. It makes clear what you offer and also that there is a concrete service here instead of just another smarmy social site. If I were you, I'd drop the first one and put the second…
I'd argue that it's impossible to read the first sentence without reading the second, but maybe that's just my "read the small print" instinct kicking in.

#36Immediately thought of @stammy and https://www.picplum.com/. Kind of like an app version. Good luck!

#37Semi-related, but if you want to print a lot of pics, it's probably just worth it to buy a printer. I just bought this one: http://www.amazon.com/Canon-PRO-100-Professional-Inkjet-Prin... and I'm pretty happy with it. It supports Apple's AirPrint so you can print from iPhone/iPad on your local LAN/WiFi. Good quality prints and a bunch of rebates on this one if you dig around.
Don't see how this is at all related to the post.

#38> So after I launched this product I had more orders in the first 24 hours than I did in total with my startup that took over a year to develop.
Can you please elaborate on what you did to get orders? I would think it would be many times harder to get a first order from someone you don't know, than writing the app.

#39Cool idea. Is mobile app in the works?
