MobileInCase review for Spin Studio ‑ 360 Product Spin

Sept. 21, 2012

This is a great app which save me dozen of hours! I am the shop owner of http://www.mobileincase.com (you can have a look how I implement spinstudio) Before using this app, I made the products spining using jquery reel library, you can find it at http://jquery.vostrel.cz/reel if you have knowledge about javascript & html, and it is free to use. Let me share how to install it on your shop (takes about 3~5 hours, depends on how deep you integrate): 1. Download the library, and upload to your own server 2. Write your own javascript code to call the library on your shop (usually you need to coding the "theme.liquid" inside the theme editor), there is no "copy & paste" code you can use because every shop has unique layout or template After you installed the library, you need to do some additional step when you add products to your shop, you need to let the library know which set of spin images belongs to the product, the step is here: 1. Take 12 (more shot, more smooth) shots of your product on the spin table (depends on how quick you shoot) 2. Open these 12 images in the photoshop, move them one by one to produce a big "sprite image" (This step is VERY TIME CONSUMING!, take around 15 min) 3. Upload the sprite image to the ftp server, and rename it to your shopify product ID (about 1 min) Now I am using spinstudio, let me share my new workflow: 1. Take 12 shots of your product on the spin table (depends on how fast you shot) 2. Click the spin studio link from product panel and upload these 12 images (about 1 min) 3. Finish No programming, No photoshop, Easy and Quick. Also, the advantages of using spin in your shop is obviously, I'm not explain them here. One more things, the support is great. I've got feedback in 1 hour, why don't give them a try? First image is free.
