Liquid Mongoose Blog

Liquid Mongoose is pleased to announce that Picasa Web Albums are now supported. Just in time for the holidays, you can use the existing Paper Case bookmarklet to create picture CD and DVD covers for sharing photos with friends and family. If you have already installed the bookmarklet, you do not need to re-install, you are ready to go. If you haven’t, please visit the Paper Case main page.
If you are unfamiliar with Picasa, it is desktop software used to manage your photos. One of its features, Web Albums, allows you to upload collections of photos into Web Albums, where you can easily share your photos online. Paper Case now supports these Web Albums, printing a fold-able case that includes the cover photo, album data, thumbnails, and the URL to the album.
If you have any questions or comments, please visit the contact page.

Thanks to all the write-ups of Paper Case from the press and blogs. The exposure and resulting comments have been very helpful in improving Paper Case.

There has been a lot of feedback and inquiries about which browsers are supported. Officially, Internet Explorer on Windows and Firefox on Windows and OS X are supported. Future support is planned for Opera, Safari and Google Chrome in that order. Google Chrome is last because it is still in beta . Announcements and potential quarks (like to the Firefox 3 scaling print setting) will be announced in the contact or other sections of the main pages. -DW

Comments are coming in about the A4 paper size and also in the comments in the blogs that have picked up Paper Case. The video embedded implies that A4 paper is needed for the folding, which is not the case. It is made for 8.5 by 11 inches, and in print preview you will see that it is indeed centered and CD sized. The instructions will be updated soon to clarify that misconception.

Thank you to Download Squad for the post and noting the scaling issue. After investigation, it appears Firefox does scale albums from aol.music.com which can be worked around by changing the scaling in the print options to 100%. This will be alerted to users using Firefox for music.aol.com until a proper fix can be applied. Thanks to all for your understanding and support. -DW

This is the official launch date of… the under construction page. Real content coming soon, check back. -DW
