Jeff, Elena and other group members
sorry to be late in considering this important topic but I was out for some time.
The request/need for a functionality of "group", "Portfolio", etc. to offer to customers (that want to embed our photos/tours in their websites) is on the table of 360cities since more than a year (just look in the posts of this group).
It is a clear and recognized need for professional photographers (PRO or not) that sell their 360 Photos to customers for publication on web. Especially for those not connected to a web design company.
Flash is no longer an "easy" solution for such needs: just navigate with an IPAD and see how many sites cannot display ANY 360 Photo because they are all Flash dependent.
The users and web designers have to address today a variety of display devices,
more end more complex to program for a proper 360 Photo display. This becomes a serious barrier/limitation to sell 360 Photos/Tours.
With rocketing sales of tablet/smartphone, the situation is getting every day more and more important,urgent.
So:
- 360cities is the biggest community and platform for 360 Photos
- 360cities platform displays 360 Photos already reasonably on different devices, including mobiles.
- 360cities wants to be a community both for professional photographers and for amateurs.
- 360cities business-oriented members are asking repeatedly for this functionality.
- 360Cities pro photographers (members) plan seriously their activities: customer sale/care/support as well as investments, including software development.
- 360cities is the natural provider of clean solutions of portfolio embedding for
customers (and therefore for pro photographers) that want to insert 360
Photos in their websites but do not want to invest in web design.
How long do we have to wait for having such a functionality implemented in 360cities? Or do we have to invest by ourselves in a solution for our customers?
As GREG says above
: "what is the actual RoadMap of 360cities" ... on this issue???
A reply would be welcome also to allow me to plan properly.
Best regards
Pietro
