While we have been waxing eloquent about the Doodlepad - we missed telling you something else - Microsoft recently released it’s brand-new and all so jazzy Windows Vista.
Why are we telling you a piece of news which you have probably heards a thousand times by now :D? Because itasveer.com has partnered with Microsoft for the online photo printing module built right into Windows Vista.
That’s the headline, here’s the news.
itasveer.com is the only Indian photo printing service which has partnered with Microsoft for the ‘Online Print Wizard’ module in Windows Vista. So, if you’re running Windows Vista on your PC, you are a step closer to itasveer. You can now choose the photographs you want to print from your ‘Photo Gallery’ and just press the ‘Order Prints’ button, we’ll take you through rest of the process. And all this without having to open a browser window. To satisfy our vanity, we are posting a screenshot here.

Remember to set your Location as India from the Control Panel to see itasveer in the list of providers.
Oh, and yes, before I forget - you can also get yourself 10 free prints if you register for an itasveer account through Windows Vista.

Yes, it has arrived. The new, rocking and reloaded itasveer. We have added cool new products and some great new features. Let me walk you through some of the stuff and you can tell us what you think.
The itasveer product line has expanded and you can now create customised T-Shirts, Mugs and Greeting Cards with your photos and images.
You say what’s so special about that, considering so many others offer the same? Well, that’s because we have put a lot of thinking into helping you design these products like no other. The big new feature, which we are quite in love with, even if we say so ourselves, is the Doodlepad. What is the Doodlepad? Doodlepad is an online tool specially crafted for designing products. It is drag-and-drop simple yet packed with features.
What can you design with the Doodlepad? Anything you wish. Some examples will be in order, so here we go.
 |
Want to make a collage of photos? Sure - Add multiple photos, resize and rotate them and move them around. |
| A comic page effect? Sure - Add a photo, and add a speech bubble with changeable fonts and colors. |
 |
 |
A brand new design? Sure - You have ready-to-use art like Backgrounds, Border and Clipart. Mix them up, add some text and you have a unique new design. |
See some actual product samples here.
What else is new at itasveer? Many of you had asked for photo albums. We admit we have been a little late with this, but only because we wanted them to be special. Which is why we bring to you beautiful
Handmade Photo Albums created by children from the
NGO Parichay - an organisation which is doing several activities towards the personal and the social development of children, youth, and adults of the community.
Buy them here.
Wait. There is more !One of our users asked us once:
“How would one know what the final image looks like ? e.g. if the original image is 5 by 8 and one wants 4 by 6 size, how does one know how the image is clipped to the appropriate size ?” Well now you can. We have introduced
Cropping Controls to help you specify what part to clip and what part to keep, or not clip any at all.
Click here to learn about cropping.
We will post details/demos of these features individually soon.
Hey, and don’t forget - you guys better keep sending us any issues that you might face and your thoughts/suggestions.
