  Ready for Primetime 

  Our Browser Extension, Insert Image, is officially available for download.

  We have done extensive Beta Testing to make sure everything is working as it should across multiple Operating Systems and most of the recent versions of Firefox. We have pages for Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ), Privacy, and About. Feel free to contact us with any questions you may have.

  Insert Image downloads a configuration file daily, so if there are any pages that the Image Bar is not showing up that you would like it to you can send us an email and include the page link/url. We will add it to the list, and it should show up on those pages for you within 24 hours.

  We are also considering a promotion/prize giveaway where we will give away some cool gifts, so stay tuned. What kind of prizes would you like to see us giveaway?

  Buttoning Up 

  The development process of Insert Image, our first Browser Extension/Plugin/Addon, is finished. We are just “buttoning up” some loose ends before we release it to the public. The release date is less than a week away.

  In case you don’t know what a Browser Extension/Addon/Plugin is, you can just think of it as an App for your Browser. Most people understand what an App for a phone is, so I thought I would clarify.

  Insert Image Progress 

  I finally hired a developer, and he has sent me a couple versions of the addon to test. The addon has went through quite a few changes – including appearance and function. It’s not the addon that I had “in my head” when this began. It’s much better than what I had in mind!

  There are still some bugs to work out, but in the end I believe our addon will be a useful tool for many users. I am looking forward to using the final version and getting it into our users hands.

  It’s all about the details 

  I have wanted to start this company for over a year.  Some of the delay has been a lack of focus on my part.  However, I know there is a fine line between procrastination and failure to prepare.  I think procrastination can be as detrimental as a lack of preparation.  I am definitely not over prepared as there are a lot of things that still need to “fall in place”, but I am glad I didn’t push forward with this months ago, because I know I would have gotten frustrated and failed miserably.

  Long story short, I have obtained the funding to develop our first browser plugin, and I have what I think is a solid business plan.  I have also talked with a developer who I hope we will be able to work with.  We have been very cautious in this area because we have been burned in this area before.  Losing money is never fun, but I really think the wisdom that we took from that failure will help make this venture successful.  No one wants to attend the School of Hard Knocks but if you have to go to class you might as well learn something.

  The next steps to create our first Web Application will involve non-disclosure contracts and finalizing our decision on a developer.  I am really looking forward to getting this Browser Plugin into our users hands.  I think it’s going to save people a lot of time and be very popular.

    When I registered Phixxr.com I had really gotten hooked on another domain name – Fixxr.com – but it was not available. A buddy of mine checked it for me tonight and let me know it was available, so guess what? Gonna be switching to Fixxr.com. Thanks Mike!

    Made the switch to Fixxr.com. I’ll use Phixxr.com later to host some code on or something of that nature.
