Pinch Me. http://www.superlame.com/blog/2008/06/superlame-on-geekbrief-tv-podcast-with-cali-lewi/ http://www.superlame.com/blog/2008/06/superlame-on-geekbrief-tv-podcast-with-cali-lewi/#comments Mon, 16 Jun 2008 17:19:00 +0000 admin http://www.superlame.com/blog/?p=21 Cali Lewis from Geekbrief TVIf you’re a tech head like me you may have already seen that SuperLame has hit the big time. The always super (never lame) and bubbly host of Geekbrief, Cali Lewis, has given SuperLame a resounding endorsement. If you watch the Geekbrief TV daily tech video podcast you’ve probably already seen it as it aired (do podcasts air?) on Friday, June 6th near the end of episode 371. It was, well, brief, so if you missed it, I’m embedding the full episode on this post, enjoy (I got goosebumps when I saw it).

The coolest part was that she actually mentions what I wrote about the development process. If you didn’t already know, the SuperLame web tool was made using only the trial version of Adobe’s Flash CS3, within the first eight days to be precise. I’d really like to add features and continue to make improvements, however, the trial has ended and like she said, I’m hoping to pay for the full version of Flash with donations. Heck, even if you’re someone in a postion to donate Flash that would be awesome too. Maybe Adobe is reading this right now and wants to support SuperLame with some free software, eh? I’m just throwing it out there. Oh, and thanks to anyone that donates and helps support SuperLame.

A big special thanks to everyone at Geekbrief!

It’s long been possible to turn your photo collection into comics your family will treasure with complicated software like Photoshop and Illustrator, or using fantastic photo-to-comic tools such as Comic Life (for Windows or Mac). If you’ve just got a single photo and a desire to make with the funny, go easy on yourself and try SuperLame! Comic Word Balloon Engine.

If you’re not familiar, their site focuses on pretty much anything web 2.0, including news, reviews, etc. They took a little time to test out SuperLame and here’s some of the things they said:

Each button pops with a little animation that’s very fluid and organic, making it an experience on it own just to click on something. Kids will love it.

SuperLame’s image editor does only one thing (comicbook like speech bubbles), but does it well.

Read the whole article here: Webware’s article all about SuperLame. Here’s hoping we make it on to the coveted Webware 100.

Later!

Yay! Here’s a quote from the “Why it might be a killer” section of the review:

SuperLame is super fun. The interface is attractive and has nice big clear icons to help users find what they are looking for. The bubble speech tools give users many options for designing their bubble. It is nice that SuperLame gives users the option of saving their image and of sending it to friends. SuperLame provides a fun tool where users can jazz up their photos to send to friends.

Did you see that? “SuperLame is Super Fun.” Yeah, that’s right, not just a solid web tool, but a fun one at that. Check out the full review on their site here: KillerStartups reviews SuperLame! Oh yeah, and you can vote for us there too!
