Title: opinions wanted ......
Post by: Dr. Spa™ Ret. on December 17, 2008, 11:33:20 am
Always looking for new and innovated ways of presenting products and information to people, I came up with something new, yet again (like everything else I've been the first to implement, "everyone will probably copy it in 6 months  ;D ).

Any way, not sure whether it's as cool as I think... or is it obnoxious?

Would love some opinions (just put your mouse over the image of the product);

I say cool Doc. It is often difficult to do a rapid ID on something you want on the internet. Especially if you are trying to replicate something you have. My example was: I bought spa shock instead of enhanced spa shock because the bottles look identical. The difference is the little word enhanced under the label..So I think it is good to have those bottles (or whatever jump out at you)... ;)

Sell the technology to Enzyte, Extenze, or some of those other weener enhancement companies.  It would be a perfect match.

I give the image enhancement a big thumbs up, too. With the resolution increasing on LCD panels, images are appearing smaller and smaller. I'd like to see this every where!

... and I second Spatech t.u.o. - that would be a real bonus!  :o  ;D

Very cool Doc. I think you're in the wrong business. Can you patent this?

You can do something similar with PHotoshop. My son did a slide show for a community presentation. Using a still photo, you can zoom in to a section or the entire slide. It really looks cool as a transition.  CHRIS...Cn you demonstrate on here?...

Very nice effet.  Not sure it's the first time I've seen it on a website.
Doc, do you sell 07 Sundance Optima microfilters?

Guess I'm the only dissenting opinion.  

I didn't think the increase in size added much (the image was still too small to see much detail) and I found the overall effect a little distracting.  

I have seen other sites where hovering popped up a larger image.  I found that helpful.

Merry Christmas from the minority view...
