Success with Imagekind.com - on hold
March 11, 2008
I’ve spent the past couple of weeks examining Imagekind - the changes that are being made, the state of the company (from a public point of view) - and I’ve decided that the timing for an Imagekind book is not ideal right now. With the imperfect launch of the greeting cards, the changes to the interface & pricing system, and the state of the forums, I just don’t think a book would serve the consumer very well. I understand kinks are being worked out, and that there are more changes coming down the line, but a book needs to address procedures and services that are stable - as stable as one should reasonably expect from an online service, of course.
I have shared this with the staff at Imagekind, and they are in agreement with me.
I am not canceling the project - much of the non-Imagekind-specific work has already been completed. I am keeping my files, and will keep up with the goings-on at Imagekind over the next several months with the intention of restarting the project should things settle down sufficiently. I’d like to thank everyone who has expressed support for the project to this point, including everyone at Imagekind.
On a related note: the Imagekind Art Review Builder tool is still broken due to changes that Imagekind made in their page code. As they are still making changes, I cannot fix the builder. Once things settle and the page code is stable, I will update the builder.
