New site to coincide with the release of my first app on iTunes, any feedback welcome as always.

Been busting my balls for a few months on this, it's all kinda official now, Dadako Studios is born. Facemakr is in the app store and getting some decent reviews already!

Is it just me or is there something strange going on with the facemakr site? I can't get it to load in Firefox nor Internet Explorer at all (I'm on a PC). It just keeps on reloading time and time again and never showing the content.
The Dadako site works fine.

Very Cool!!! I love that 'read more' link haha!

Also on the dutch facemakr site there are some minor errors(technically its ok, its just that dutch people would never say things in that way :P).

One thing that is gramatically incorrect though:
"Stel ineens gedetailleerde gezichten samen op een uiterst elegante manier, ontwerpen van een gezicht is nooit zo eenvoudig geweest!"

should be:
"Stel gedetailleerde gezichten samen op een uiterst elegante manier, het ontwerpen van een gezicht is nooit zo eenvoudig geweest!"

let me know if youd like me to translate the entire page correctly (for free of course)

Kwakkie that would be great! It was written by a native Dutch man, but maybe he's just not as eloquent as you ;)

bloodmoon - The site will re-direct you to your computers language, if it can't find your computers language it should just stay where it is. Fixed now! Thanks.

Nice vid! Does the app have sounds in it as well(ok, its not really functional, but some simple sounds could really finish it off imo). Mailed you the translation this morning btw ;)

Hey Kwakkie, thanks a million for the translation there, a few other horandajin have come forward to complain also.

bloodmoon - I updated it after you posted, did you dump your cache?

Jeremy - ... (are you on drugs?)

Wow! Awesome. Amazing idea, great execution!
I can really see this app hitting it off with the public. If you can get it out there enough for people to find, I can definitely see this being a huge success.

Good luck, and great work!!

Yes of course I dumped the cache and cookies and everything else hehe. Restarted my computer and tryed both IE and FF again. And now waited 10 hours and tried again.

And still the same problem sadly.

Another dutchman's input:

"Schaal, roteer, positioneer en kleur je eigen gezicht samen, allemaal in een duidelijke, geweldige interface."

should be:

Schaal, roteer, positioneer en kleur je eigen gezicht, allemaal in een duidelijke, geweldige interface.

Makes a bit more sense that way

Also this looks like the stuff people love to play around with. Awesome job man. Must've been a pain to get it all working together

some of the maths involved is doing mirrored rotations would make even the most hardened coder cry. Got there in the end though! Of course it's a custom built vector engine, so a bit of a first on the iPhone technically.
