Picapp.com - Because a picture's worth

“Working hand in hand with the world most prestigious content partners we have been noticing in the last 4 years that most of the visual content found online (when I say "most" I mean 90%!!) is some kind of a misuse or an infringement of copyright. The losses of potential revenues, for the professional content creators, was and still is huge. On the other hand, the need to use high end visual content online is just growing in exponential rates and online publishers need updated visual content to improve their readers experience. Does all this mean the battle for fair and legal use of content online is doomed? Is there no hope to enable publishers to "do the right thing" and still let content owners make a living so they can continue and create images that can make you smile or cry?”

Providing quality graphic content with a siding of revenue is always a good and interesting idea which is bound to take off any time shortly. The sole perspective of kissing goodbye hideous Adbrite pop-ups wannabes or massive Google ads is always enticing, plus having it replaced by cool and arty pictures is really a breakthrough, and makes Picapp.com a sure bet to become a killer startup.

Professional graphic artists are regularly challenged by stock photos, in the sense that once you’ve seen one image bank it seems you have seen them all. By not allowing users to sneak a preview at the content they provide, the site might be shooing away a large audience. Can they reconsider presenting a small sample of images in the site in order to convince skeptic members-to-be?
