WebSlide: A New Way to Collaborate on Your Designs

How do you display your creative mockups to clients? Do you email them a package of images? Or maybe a single, poorly compressed PDF? Or do you spend a bunch of time dropping images into HTML wrappers and placing them up on a demo site? I’ve tried all of them and I found that none of them really gave me and my clients what we really needed.
In June 2009, I released an alpha-version of an interface for viewing images in a slideshow-like format called WebSlide. It was great and served its purpose, but still wasn’t enough. While simple, it was still slightly cumbersome to set up if you weren’t comfortable with JavaScript. On top of that servers it was being tested on quickly became quite unorganized and people were forgetting just where their WebSlide revisions were at.
So, in comes the real WebSlide. A hosted application that lets you quickly and painlessly manage and share designs, mockups, and all sorts of your pretty pictures.
Features
- Organize projects by client
- Control project access for multiple user-levels
- Post and review multiple project revisions
- Fast and easy interface for uploading multiple images at once and organizing them
- Email notifications to users when new revisions are posted
- Track comments on each project revision
Demo
Here’s a quick video of me uploading this project revision for WebSlide:
