MorphMarket Launches Today

Any plans to make an app? The website is awesome. I'm looking for a cinnamon combo male and it was soooooo easy to just click cinnamon and see everything available

It's a responsive website, there's no need for an app :P

Hi Izzys, as Matt said, it should work well on devices. There are some benefits to apps but the cost is probably too great, official answer:

http://www.morphmarket.com/faq#app

Hey everyone, quick update. I just posted a recap of the week to MM's FB page. Also, I shared that the best place to continue engaging me will be on the MM FB page. This will centralize our discussion and save me valuable time so that I can keep making it better. Doesn't mean I might not pop in to the forum but it won't be the surest way to find me moving forward.

So I have some more feedback/suggestions :D...

Suggestions:
* Is there a way to sort the list of morphs by date in which they appeared, so you can have a "classic" view of the classifieds, similar to what they have on Fauna or Kingsnake?
* Perhaps another way to achieve this which is similar to the way forums work, could you bold text morph names that have updates, then unbold them if there haven't been updates since you last clicked that morph? Currently they're all un-bold by default.
* The photo banners at the top are awesome! It would be even more awesome if you did something like the Ball Python of the Month/week feature that BP.net used to do :gj:. People could submit photos, and by a certain date, the registered members of the page get to vote which ones are their favorite :gj:. You may need to hire a moderator to do this, or do it yourself, or just trust the people to not submit weird or irrelevant photos :confuzd:? OR you can have people nominate the morph of the month/week by scouring through the photo ads.
* I put a little more thought into the rating system I suggested. I think I just want to be able to comment on peoples' snakes.
* A feature to be able to "watch" or "get notifications" for a snake ad or a breeder's page could be cool. Any time they update their Inventory or Breeder page, it could be cool to see a notification somewhere :gj:.

Feedback:
* I LOVE the pro-tips at the bottom of the page! I just tried it and was blown away by how accurate it was! More of these please :D...
PRO TIP: You can access the calculator from any page, by putting two morph names in the search box (in the top menu bar) separated by an 'x' and click 'Submit'.

Question:
* If people contact you about your snake ad, do you receive an e-mail? Or do I have to check in with the site to see notifications?

As usual, if I think of anything else, I'll come back here :gj:.

Thanks!

Hi Hooblah, thanks for all the feedback!

Cool ideas, I've taken note.> A feature to be able to "watch" or "get notifications" for a snake ad or a breeder's page could be cool. Any time they update their Inventory or Breeder page, it could be cool to see a notification somewhere :gj:.

Yes, activity updates like this is planned!!

> I LOVE the pro-tips at the bottom of the page! I just tried it and was blown away by how accurate it was! More of these please :D...

I added a new one to Edit Snake just for you, and will try to do more. :)

> If people contact you about your snake ad, do you receive an e-mail? Or do I have to check in with the site to see notifications?

You can try it out and see for yourself. They either will click "go to ad" and go to your site, etc. Or they can click "contact sender" which right now is just your email address. So there are no notifications currently on MM. We're keeping that simple for now to work on cooler stuff.

> Is there a way to sort the list of morphs by date in which they appeared, so you can have a "classic" view of the classifieds, similar to what they have on Fauna or Kingsnake?

I'm going to answer this one on the FB page in a little bit, because it's of particular interest.

Thanks again!

I realized I didn't actually flesh out my pitch here :gj:. Just in case you didn't already figure it out, I was pitching that photos that receive the most votes get featured in the banner, or there would be a sidebar that contains the Ball Python of the Month. If you click on Home on Bp.net, you can see what I'm referring to. You get to highlight snake ads or registered users.

I am not opposed to comments on photos. Though I brought this up before, I worry about flame wars, or spiteful/hateful comments on breeder photos by kids who have some vendetta against breeders. Of course this is the worst case scenario, I can imagine other cons that come from this.

Thanks for the reply :gj:! Added the site to my bookmarks toolbar :D...

Just as a general reminder... A lot of these posts are getting very close to the edge.

Mark, thanks for that warning, and I appreciate the moderators on the site allowing this thread to announce the site.

I will re-iterate what I said 2 posts ago, to anyone who come across this in the future:
> the best place for now to continue engaging about MorphMarket is on our Facebook Page

Just post on the wall there and we'll respond.

thanks again!
