What’s been done before?
Pictory is most similar to my project, and my main inspiration. Pictory gives a theme, accepts submissions, and compiles them into little photo journals. I’ve looked into their submission system, and it looks like you have to log in to submit. I’d like to learn more about how their submission system works because it seems to work well.
Pictory also has a blog where they do more themes and accept more submissions. They have a submission system that I really like, it doesn’t require a sign up, and you can upload directly on the submission page. It also allows you to write your caption and give your name directly on the page.
Appicture has a submission system where the user emails their photo and fills out a little form.
What I’ve learned
I’ve learned that I’d most like the submission system found in the Pictory blog.
