Mosaic Photo System
Another week, another app rejection for the Mosaic Photo System. A new version of the app has been submitted, totally abandoning the use of UUIDs. I do not want to prompt the user with a warning before they upload every photo, and that appears to be what Apple wants.

With the completion of Mosaic Slideshow v1.0, the iPhone app’s approval is the final piece before the official soft-launch.

This also marks the start of production of the Mosaic Android App and the first promo video for Mosaic. The promo video will be basic and will outline the three steps for using Mosaic:
1. Download the app
2. Snap a picture
3. The picture appears in the slideshow

This week I was developing Mosaic from La Fortuna, Costa Rica – in the shadows of the Arenal Volcano.

Mosaic Photo System
This week we took on a small setback when the Mosaic Photo System iPhone App was rejected due to the fact that it transmits “personal data” to a web server. The “personal data” that is being transmitted is a UUID, which is randomly generated, which we use to track which photos are being uploaded by which users. We can’t actually see the user’s name or any other info. A small adjustment has been made and the app has been resubmitted.

Outside of the iPhone app, Mosaic Manager v1.0 has been completed. This is a tool that most users will never see but it is very important to the Mosaic system. Mosaic Manager allows us to monitor photos that have been uploaded and reject anything that might be questionable.

Traveling
This week, Mosaic is being developed from the shores of the Caribbean Sea, in the town of Puerto Veijo, Limon, Costa Rica. The town has a Rastafarian feel and the beach at Playa Negro has back sand, created by volcanoes.

Boot Hill Heroes
Our friends at Experimental Gamer have started a Kickstarter project for their retro-rpg game, Boot Hill Heroes.
