Andertoons Partnering With SlideRocket
Andertoons.com is proud to announce its partnership with revolutionary presentation creation website, SlideRocket.com!
Some recent praise for SlideRocket includes:
- TechCrunch - "…produces slideshows that rival (and in many cases, better) PowerPoint…"
- SitePoint - "…easily the most complete presentation application on the web, and the most likely to really compete with Microsoft’s PowerPoint juggernaut."
- ZDNet - "It’s slick, smooth, gentle on the eyes, and all Flash based so everything works as soon as you want it to. If anything, it actually seems to work better than PowerPoint offline."
Andertoons cartoons are available now via the picture tool, and in the very near future, the SlideRocket marketplace.
Pricing is the same as Andertoons.com, and our new API made integration a breeze! (More on that later…)
Here's a few screenshots to show you how nice it all works:
I'm really excited about this new partnership, and I can't wait to see what great stuff SlideRocket comes up with next!

Share Cartoons
Another brand spanking new option at Andertoons.com, is the Share feature. You might remember seeing the Share option when I introduced the Embed feature a ways back.
Share allows you to use the most popular social networking sites to share Andertoons cartoons with friends, family, and all your Web 2.0 "friends." You can find it underneath cartoons at the site:
After clicking Share/Embed, you'll get a new screen. The sharing options are on the upper left:
You can share via Del.icio.us, Facebook, MySpace, StumbleUpon and Digg:
Choose your option, and you'll be directed to the correct page at the appropriate site.
Here's Del.icio.us:

And finally, Digg:
So feel free to share some Andertoons! Enjoy!

Little Gray LEGO Bots
I don't know what motivates me to build these little LEGO robots, but I do enjoy it so!

Pay With Paypal
I buy and sell a lot on Ebay, so I really like the ease and security of Paypal.
So it was a natural fit to include a Paypal option in the new Andertoons.com check out:
Here's a close up of the buttons:
It works just like a normal Andertoons check out process, except you're momentarily redirected to Paypal. Nice, easy, and convenient.
Enjoy!

You gotta hand it to that Amazon algorithm! Does it know what I like or what?!

They say you should write what you know, so…
