Idea and question on iPhone screen savers

mercphoto · April 1, 2009

Looking to do this as a means to drive traffic and I have a few questions for y'all. I have a gallery here of iPhone screen sized pics at 480 by 320 pixels.

http://mercphoto.smugmug.com/gallery/7779010_NcKeC

1) My idea is to let them save these to their computer. But I can't seem to get the gallery settings correct so that the "save photo" option comes up. I have protection off, and allowing originals.

2. I'm torn between the image w/o the text, and the image that has "compliments of mercphoto.smgumug.com". Any thoughts on which version is best to use?

Thanks.

Hmmm.... does the save feature not show up in the Filmstrip gallery mode and only in the Smugmug mode?

Hmmm.... the photo info for that wallpaper says its 480x319. Did you right-click, or "save photo"? Eventually I'm hoping to charge .99 per file and wondering if there is even a market for this.

the first time I did a right-click so I went back and used the "save image" button... it measures 319 x 480 (163ppi)
