Thanks to user feedback, the billboard GOG has improved a whole lot. The billboard generator page is now linking to user generators that people have added, such as this one:

Of course you can still make generators for private use, having them listed is optional. Please continue giving us your thoughts, it helps a lot.

Got a 2D logo you’d like to make a little less … flat? Blender is a handy tool for adding the third dimension to your creations. Now you can get an idea of the possibilities with our 3D Logo Generator. You upload a black and white picture, and get out a 3D version of it, like this:

If you know Blender, you can download the .blend file we create and use it as a starting point for your own customized design. If you don’t know Blender, well, stay tuned, there’s more to come.

We recently added a new design for Valentine’s day (coming up next month) - a shower of hearts set against the rising sun:

By the way, all picture mixer designs now give the code needed to embed them directly in your site or blog.

Enjoy! We should probably do a design for anti-Valentine’s day too…

Happy New Year! We’re happy to see that while we were on vacation, a bunch of folks decided to try out our Billboard GOG. (A GOG is a Generator of Generators; our Billboard GOG lets you create your own generator for putting pictures or text on a billboard).

The results are encouraging, and we appreciate the feedback we’ve been getting. We’re working on the following improvements:

• Making the picture size flexible, and increasing the visible scale during design.
• Making it clearer how to embed the resulting generators on your own website or blog.
• Letting people show off their generators on MakeSweet itself if they want to.

Thanks for playing!
