Trade: build simple image viewer app (comics)

Help!
I'm wondering if any interested developers out there could help me build a very simple application that shows a series of .jpg or .gif / .png images in sequence.
Essentially, I'm looking to publish a comic book in the market, but I lack the programming skills to create the application to shunt my images into!
[I could to this in flash, but we don't have flash on android .. yet. ]
My app would essentially be a reader for my comic. It would contain all the images for the comic, and a right swipe would load the next image and display it, a left swipe, would go backward.
I'm a professional animator, and I'm willing to trade flash animation lessons, or do some animation or illustration work for you or your app in trade.
Get in touch!
Thanks!

I am looking for the same thing. Let me know if anything pops up here.
Thanks

Picture Viewer App?

Is there any apps for viewing your photos, that are like the iphones. HTCalbum is somewhat slow when you change pics sliding your finger. Also, in the older htcalbums, you could rotate. Anyways, if someone knows a program or can make one, that would be great. Thank you.

do a search for S2V bu A_C in fact i recomend all three of his apps if you want the iphone look

i love resco photo viewer pro.. i've been using it since i got the touch pro, and its great for pictures. the htc album program kinda sucks because its so laggy, and really doesn't have any options besides to view in their version of thumbnails (which is painfully slow), and to send or delete them. resco's program allows you to resize the images, adjust saturation/contrast/brightness/etc, and their thumbnail view is very fast. renaming is easy, as well as moving and copying. its probably the best program i've found to handle multiple pictures at once, because you can check them off and move them to wherever. its very windows feeling though, it doesn't have all the graphic effects of the iphone or anything, but its stable, and it works, and thats mainly what i use it for. part of my job is image resizing and editing off an sd card, and this is one of the programs i use daily, and its one of the main reasons why i don't have to carry a laptop with me anymore.

For strict viewing, adding to contact, email, sms, etc., you really can't go wrong with S2V. I use it on my Fuze more than ANY other app. I also use Resco's app, but it's not free or finger friendly. It is very feature rich however.
I highly recommend S2V. And if you like it, be sure to send A_C a few bucks. Works fantastically with S2U2 as well.

[Q] "Complete" Word Processor for G-Tab

I have both DocumentsToGo, and QuickOffice on my G-Tab. DocsToGo will let you open a Word Doc, but when you go to edit, it opens a new edit dialog with the previous sentence (at most) visible. It does not seem to allow you to edit many formatting options, and I can't see any way to use it to insert an image file into a document. QuickOffice lets you edit inline, but otherwise seems to have the same limitations.
Is there a "complete" word processing program for the G-Tab that will let me do some formatting and insert pictures, as well as produce a .DOC or .DOCX compatible file?
Is there some way to setup Google Docs like this, and have it be available if I don't have a connection (maybe through dropbox)?
TIA!

I'm using the QuickOffice HD from the Notion Ink Adam and it works great!
It's available via this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=928832
Right now, the current version lets you connect to Google Docs and both edit AND create new documents (Word, Excel, PPT) as well as read PDFs
You could easily open a document up and re-save it internal to your gTablet for offline use -- or as you suggest use Dropbox to keep a local folder synced up for offline use...
Google only recently added support for the XML office files to GDocs -- so creation of new documents in those formats isn't natively supported in this version (but may be available in a newer version of QuickOffice HD I suppose)
Long Pressing in a Word document brings up a dialog with the following options:
- Add Image from Gallery
- Add Image from Camera
- Select Text
- Input Method
You can also change Fonts (inc. set Bold, Underline, Italic, etc), Alignment, Colour...
I think that just about meets your requirements (?) -- give it a try...

+1 for quickoffice tablet addition from notion ink. Works great for me!

OK, have given it a try. To begin with, I feel a little odd using it since I can't find the HD version in the market, so have to wonder if it won't up and die on me at some point.
In any event, I was able to insert and resize a picture, but couldn't find any way to select just the picture so I could try to center it. Selection handles seem a bit difficult to operate. Also could not find any way to edit my headers or footers, or to apply my document styles for chapter hearings.
Tool may support all this, but the online help isn't the greatest either. Half tempted to register and see if there have been any updates.
FWIW

The HD version is great. Use it for my college classes and I love it. Have the USB case and this and ur good to go. Being integrated with google docs and dropbox is a nice feature too

I just side loaded the Notion Ink Quick Office app, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to create a document. Am I supposed to create a Google Docs account or something? Or should I just be able to create a document on my G tab?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I think you click the app (e.g., word), then select SDCARD, then press the small + at the bottom, which will popup file or folder choice.
Jim

Got it, thanks. Very cool!

Wow i must say the Quickoffice HD is way better than my DocstoGo full at this moment. Wasted my money on Docstogo...
I like the ported canvas app as well.

This seems to be much better than doctogo.
It asked about registering it do I need to?

Nope it's optional.

[Q] Excel & Word App?

Does anyone know a good app I can download view and edit Excel or Word files on? I have tried:
OfficeSuite
E-cell xls
Word To Go
I have attached a copy of the Excel file I am trying to manipulate on the G-Tab. I am able to open, view, and edit the file (well sort of edit). If you view the file file via Excel on you computer you will see it has "check boxes" but I am not able to see them on any of the above mentioned apps. Does anyone know of an app that I can do this with?
The form is being created for use in a physicians' clinic, to help avoid the the clutter of paper and eligible writing.
I was not able to upload (size limit) the Word file I want to be able to edit. But this file is filled with "drop down" menus which do not show up when opened on the G Tab.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Dave

That Excel sheet is full of Windows Forms controls. Since those are ActiveX controls I doubt *very* seriously you are going to find any programs on the G Tablet that will allow this file to work correctly. ActiveX, if you aren't familiar with it, is extremely Windows-centric. And at this point, fairly out dated.

[APP] Notepad v4.0

Name: Notepad
About the app:
The Office app is powerful, but its syncing features slow it down. Notepad by AppsForMe is a great app to choose if you just want to take plaintext notes without the wait. It’s also the only text editor that supports folder structures, and the look of the app makes it feel like a part of the operating system (animations included). You can also pin documents or directories to the Start screen and send documents as emails or text messages.
The app has 4.6/5 stars over 48 reviews.
“Amazing app and it does what it says without any problems. Easily the best Notepad app on the marketplace and the fastest” 5/5
“Superb. You can store email and SMS templates. It makes life a lot easier. Don't miss it.” 5/5
“Very, very, very well done. Thank you.” 5/5
Developer's notes:
I'm always looking for more feedback on Notepad. Unfortunately, I don't get a huge number of support emails, so I'm left up to my own devices to figure out what could be added or needs to be changed.
Please give the application a shot. If you like it, great! If you don't, let me know what's up (in the comments). Chances are I can do something about it. Thanks for reading!
Possible future features (not guaranteed in any way, and not listed in any particular order.)
+ change keyboard theme
+ password-protect
+ lists
+ quick folders (swipe in directory view)
+ "emtpy trash" button
+ scroll sideways on long filenames
+ "import all" to parse "backup all"/"export all"
+ "export all" -> skydrive
+ import from url (skydrive/dropbox)
+ "are you sure?" -> "ready to send?"
+ title of note title -> "document title"
+ custom-name "root"

I'll be watching this thread as well as my developer email, [email protected], for any questions, comments, complaints, or concerns. Thanks!

Some screenshots (attached).

Thank you!!!

Glad you like it!
Please let me know anything about it that seems weird or cool. I do things a lot differently than all of the other text editor applications, and I want to know what's good and what's not.

Wow really good Idea ! I have searched this for Quick Notes ( i use on the PC often the Editor ) and I would use a similiar App on the Phone ...

Thank you!!! i need this for school

simple and does what it says, good app

Notepad Suggestion
First, great Notepad app. I would just like to add a password to a note file.
Thanks!

It's good to see interest in the application! Notepad just hit 15,000 downloads today, and I'm always looking to make that number higher, so the more suggestions you guys have the better.
So far I'm seeing requests for:
(1) a new live tile, particularly for pinned documents/directories
(2) change the name of the "root" directory (to what, though, I wonder?)
(3) password-protect documents
(4) implement lists as well as documents
Anyone have any other suggestions, or want to plus-one a feature?
--AppsForMe

Guess you had missed our review. Skydrive Integration and ability to send notes as attachment.

Yes, I definitely saw your review! I actually did implement two of your suggestions (preview of content when pinned, ability to move folders).
Here's how I feel about your other requests:
First, the Windows Phone operating system prevents third-party developers (read: me) from sending email attachments. Same goes for speech-to-text.
Second, as soon as you want SkyDrive, you should just be using Office. The Office app supports either (a) local files without folders, or (b) SkyDrive files with SkyDrive folders. Goodness knows that I can never match the Office app for stability, integration, features, or UI. Plus, Notepad's other sell is that it's fast--loading notes, saving notes, navigating folders--implementing web functions would slow everything wayyyy down. I see the lack of SkyDrive as a selling point.
(Side note: Office supports sending documents as attachments. Two birds with one stone!)

Notepad for WP the best
I think the requests thus far are pretty much what is missing although it seems it's going to be an uphill battle due to OS restrictions. Installed the app last week on my Lumia and it's amazing, clean and easy to use. Keep up the good work.

I used to use this app, but it had this bug where i could not scroll to the bottom of the longer note. Has that been resloved in the meantime?
Also, I think skydrive sync is important (or even dropbox). When someone changes phones, how is he going to transfer notes?

thank you i need this apps

All the problems with long notes have been fixed.
I'm going to leave the auto-syncing between SkyDrive and the phone up to the native Office application--it does it better, faster, and more reliably than I ever could.
If you need to back up your documents, use the "backup all" feature to email yourself the text of the documents.

Hi Isaac,
Great app. I registered here just to say that, and thank you. I'm a note taking person but one that wants to keep them organize and your app is the only one that does it with ease. (I must of downloaded a dozen to try and removed..only one other did folders, the rest was just one giant list of notes).
If you're serious about taking users feedback, here are some of mine...all are minor little things that are mostly ui based and these are just my opinions. I think your application here is quite impressive so take these only to help out for those you agree with..
- replace 'root' with 'home' or 'my folders' perhaps?
- replace 'Remarks' when creating a new directory with 'Note: ' or remove the word entirely and place the remark note under the text field.
- titles of Directories and Notes become all lower-cased when viewing
- clicking the back button when in Search mode hides the keyboard only, so it requires clicking the back button again to exit the search function..this may be an OS thing I've seen and not something that can be changed unless you can find a way around this.
- add a Folders button at the bottom when in a non root directory to take you back, just like how it appears when in a note to take you back to its directory.
- when in a directory, can the word Notepad and the Directory name on top take you back to the folder list view or one folder out if in a subfolder?
- possible to allow user to choose which directory(ies) to list mango-syle to the right where they can swipe to the right and to go into that directory (sorry if this is unclear, I'm not too familiar with WP terminology yet)
- Button to empty trash when viewing trash directory. btw, how does the trash work..deletes automatically after so long?
- when viewing a file that has a long filename (and the feature is turned on), can it scroll?
- reduce space between documents filenames ..currently lists 5 before needing to scroll?
- backup all..cool feature. I would change 'Are you sure?' which sounds a little scary to something like 'Ready to Send?' btw, can you import back into Notepad? If note, perhaps call the feature 'email all' instead for now..
- when creating a new note it shows 'new document', the next screen where it ask for the file name it displays 'new note' ..just a consistence thing
- are all notes saved as txt files on the device? what if you remove the .txt? does it need to be displayed if it's automatically saving them as txt files.
- Can titles of notes and directories names be the system's accent color and turn black when choosing them? ..the reverse essentially.
- when adjusting toggle sliders in Settings, the phone wants to swipe to it's neighboring page a little too freely (btw, love all the settings you have here!)
- remove the larger 'root' when in the root directory list to gain some real estate back to see more directories and so it's not repeating perhaps?
And if you need any simple graphics help, I can help out.

I'd love to see Dropbox support with everything being saved to dropbox and loaded from dropbox. I'd even pay for a dropbox enabled version.

Can it handle long text file ?
Can it import text file from skydrive?
Can we Password lock the app or folder?
thanx

First: Thanks, Lumiame, for the excellent feedback. You've greatly extended the set of features I'm considering adding, and you've noted UI inconsistencies and confusions that I'll make sure to address in the next update.
To everyone who's commented so far: thanks for the good feedback. This quarter at my university is slower than my last quarter, so I should be able to get to work on the app.
Look for a good number of changes in the next updates.

thanks for sharing
