Slick tool --

Definitely amplifies the ability of anyone to create novel GIFs to share with friends.

Something tells me there is a pretty big audience for this tool. I dig it!

Animated GIF are the worse-is-better solution of moving images, yet I can't argue with their popularity.

what are the main problems with animated GIFs in your mind? for us being playable in just about every context on the web/mobile was really important

One problem that I can think of is that the palette for each frame is restricted to 255 colors. That being said, there really isn't any other widely-supported option at this point :-).

I like the app concept! Nice work!

Most animated GIF 'players' have zero controls for play, pause, feedback for buffering. It doesn't handle audio, and file sizes are huge.

My first thought was "what do automated sharing of purchases have to do with animated GIFs?"

hahaha... well, they're both silly ideas? :)
