"The new, simple way to customize and control your myspace profile"
- drusenko 19y agohaha, that was nasty... posted it before i could get to it :)
- kul 19y agobrill!
- zach 19y agoAh, bringing designing power to the people. That's great. What's with the shutdown speculation? I can't imagine they'd shut it down given that it's not a competing content site and they're bringing out an API, would they?
- drusenko 19y agoOne interesting thing to note (that wasn't mentioned in the article): The design is based on an SVG template that is modular & rasterized on the server to produce any color variation desired. We can also perform SVG layer-effects on raster images (Lighten, Darken, Screen, Multiply) -- which is how we get the patterns to match the background color, for example. We'll be back-porting that feature to Weebly as well -- picture a web site template that is image-based yet still lets you choose any color combination desired.
- dbrush 19y agoOh man, powerful stuff. Your website editor is starting to compete with my image editor : P Many congratulations to you guys.
- danielha 19y agoAwesome stuff guys. But you need to make it known the next time you're hanging with the Hammer.
- Tichy 19y agoI thought a color on the web is just a triplet of bytes (RGB)? OK, just kidding, but I have no idea what you have been talking about...
- plusbryan 19y agoPutting MC Hammer into the demo vid was both surprising and ingenious. Great job guys!
- create_account 19y agoI'm not sure if that means the Weebly guys have come up in the world, or if Hammer has sunk to a new low...
- Readmore 19y agoHahaha! How did that even happen? M.C.Hammer? Where did you find him?
- steveplace 19y agotechcrunch 40. He has a startup for online video battledancing or something.
- dannyv 19y agoThanks for the support guys! Let's keep it up :-) http://digg.com/design/SnapLayout_launches_the_profile_editor_MySpace_should_have_made http://digg.com/design/SnapLayout_launches_the_profile_edito...
- blored 19y agoThis is good, real good.
- andreyf 19y agoGreat idea, killer execution. I definitely see this going places. Amazon job, guys :)
- plusbryan 19y agoYikes. Is this a worry? http://www.techcrunch.com/2007/10/09/myspace-platform-to-launch-next-week/ http://www.techcrunch.com/2007/10/09/myspace-platform-to-lau...
- dannyv 19y agoHammer's MySpace: http://www.myspace.com/mchammer http://www.myspace.com/mchammer It's gonna get even pimper
- letian 19y agoNice, make it a Weebspace
- staunch 19y agoVery nice. I would just love to see it generalized. An open way for any social site to use Weebly as their profile editor.
- Tichy 19y agoI don't think it really works in my Browser (Firefox on Ubuntu 7.04). I couldn't drop the widgets, and there was no choice of corner styles.
- nextmovetwo 19y agoThis is very slick what you have done! As opposed to most MySpace customization websites, I don't feel dirty while I'm using your system. Haha. Kudos to everyone involved!
