<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gxseries, post: 2979470, member: 4373&quot;]I&#039;m certain that there is a big demand for Japanese goods so it is only a matter of time when a new edition comes out. I personally like my version as I didn&#039;t like Dansco&#039;s way of arrangement. </p><p><br /></p><p>Put it this way, if you wanted a quick and dirty version of a digital album, there is no reason why you cannot do it in Microsoft Word. Some of the early prototypes that I did were done that way. Some were even in pen and paper.</p><p><br /></p><p>The app is doable. I discussed this with a programmer a while back and he did not think it is hard at all. Same with the thumbnail / full screen size. The only real problem is how to auto circle crop the coin. More so for coins that are not circular.&nbsp; Pricing is also another challenge. If an album is around 50 dollar mark, to be price competitive - I believe most people would not want to pay more than 10 - 20 dollars for an electronic copy. </p><p><br /></p><p>Understandably with some custom albums, you may be able to ask for more regardless of hard copy or electronic version but the real challenge is to judge what people want to pay for. </p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m sure with the advancement of 3D printing, cost would have gone down but the real question is &quot;how much?&quot; Since I live down under, it&#039;s just hard to contact any publisher / supplier other than by email otherwise I would love to see how their operations work and come up with solutions to see how to drive costs down and have a viable product. And of course, I have been going on about this for more than a decade...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
