Hey guys this is my first thread on HN, but I thought I would share my latest adventure, PosterFuse.com. PosterFuse allows users to create a collage of their instagram and Facebook photos which can be turned into a physical poster, or a Facebook cover photo.

I would love feedback on the idea / design / anything. Thanks!

    It would be awesome if you had a "Poster This" widget that publishers could put on their website images in exchange for a cut of the poster sale.

Nice idea. Simple and and well executed.

Remind me of the "life poster" that everyone was doing not too long ago. I had to buy a mac software to make one for one of my friend.

So little of the screen is used for browsing your pictures. I wish this were improved.

    That's a totally fair assessment. We are trying to find the perfect mix between enough browsing space vs being able to see the poster fully.

      It just feels so weird to have the main interaction (browsing pictures from social networks) as the _background_ of the app. Personally, I wanted to fill the whole grid with pictures, so the colors at the top were useless. Maybe give an option to hide that huge chunk of space. And, again, maybe make the browsing in the foreground and the cover picture in a well or something like that.
