I agree! Good thoughts (both of you). I love the idea of a gallery of examples.

1. I'll be optimizing the fulfillment process as time progresses (thus lowering prices).

2. That's a good point. Definitely something I thought about while building it. I decided to just move forward with how it currently is and optimize/iterate after feedback/testing.

3. No reason in particular :)

Appreciate the thoughts!

Appreciate all the pricing feedback, brought the prices down a bit and added a coupon for HN: use SHOWHN for an extra 20% off between now and the 15th!

Canvas gallery wraps are comparable to WHCC's premium gallery wraps. Though they don't have backing. PM me or email me if you're interested in ordering a test print: blake@printify.io!

Thanks! I'm using a vendor for fulfillment. Ordered several test prints and loved their quality.

And I'm using Jcrop for cropping.

Ah yeah, I pulled PSD and PDF support right before launch, needed a little more work for those. So, that text was with regard to those file types. Thanks for catching that!

That's valid. There's a quality difference for sure, but I'll be keeping a close eye on pricing and as we get more efficient I anticipate prices coming down.

Disabled Bugsnag for now, thanks for catching that!

That's good to know, appreciate the insight!

I was initially happy about this, but the more I think about it the more I'm on the fence. I'm just starting to get in to using Parse this week, so can someone with a little more experience give some thoughts?

It seems to me that a smaller app would be more likely to occasionally burst over 30 req/s than go over 1m req/mo. Is it as simple as retrying requests that return error code 155 (per the FAQ)?
