HelmetHead Launches Photo Sharing Utility

PRLog (Press Release) – Jun 08, 2009 – The photo sharing utility is intended to give the casual shopper a community-oriented experience, while encouraging others to submit their own photos to the network. Future feature sets for the photo sharing utility will include the ability to start forum topics from, as well as rate the photos. Users have the option to upload up to 50 megabytes (Mb) of images at a time and also have the capability to "scroll" through images on the site without leaving the current page they are on.
In March, HelmetHead Cycle launched a new web site which will enable a modular approach to feature releases, including an integrated forum for the product and public image pages and the stitching for a utility which will allow shoppers to sell something of their own — their bikes, ATVs, snowmobiles and quads.
"We feel that the economy is taking a toll on everybody right now and hopefully shoppers will find that a more interactive experience will encourage shoppers to tell their friends about our own site," explains Jeremy Harris, lead developer for the company. "A typical shopping cart will only allow others to buy goods from a store. We feel that the increased exposure time on the site will help generate sales leads, whether subliminally or directly."
