Web Comparison

This is a group presentation we did on class. Here we did a comparison for 3 international consumer product. In this case they were Nokia, Samsung Mobile, Sony Ericsson. You might find it interesting.  Before jumping into the comparison in detail, I want to highlight some points, such as how cell phones (They are the big 3 in cell phones industry) has evolved and why web is important for these companies?

• Most cellphone user internet literature and familiar with e-commerce.
• User diversity
• User need detail info of the product (specification, dimention,etc)
• Upgrade/download system or other application  (even can drive more profit)
• Vendors need third party development to improve their platform

You also can find some unique characteristics in these webs, such as:

• Region based websites
• Cool flash usages
• Aps store
• Microsite for certain products (mostly flash based)
• Mobile site
• Different sites for different kinds of users incl. developers
• Social media integrated (campaign, etc)

Find out more about it on this presentation and tell me which one is the best web according to you

To get the these effects just choose which one suits your taste and upload your photo. Youcan get different amazing effects in less then one minute. No need to be a photoshop expert at all. Here are some of my own experiments. Pretty cool, huh?

A word of advice though. You might want to pick picture of you with good resolution, with almost the same position like the sample picture, and a bit glamorous. Otherwise, you might end up with missing mouth like mine here.

Since the picture is generated by program, so who know what the outcome will be. Be patient and do some experiments if you don’t get the star impression.

As for the technical stuffs, this is some serious image manipulation using PHP. I’m pretty impressed and curious about the codes, but I bet it still use the GD graphic library.
