Everpix team: sorry to hear that the runway ended before you could take off. It is a great idea, but with such tough competition for user acquisition (esp free competition in the B2C space), it's easy to see how customer growth couldn't deliver the returns needed for a VC-backed startup. We considered this space heavily but decided we'd be no match against the giants throwing money at this space.
At Tourbuzz, we've approached the photography market from a commercial angle. We've bootstrapped a profitable niche in professional real estate photography and are now planning our expansion into other niches. I do believe that the feature set you were formulating is one that is in consumers' interest, it's just a matter of finding a way to monetize it successfully. The photography space is still huge and growing, and there is plenty of time to build large, successful companies in the space.
We'd love to talk to you about the future if you're interested.
