Scott,
That`s fantastic!! Exactly what I wanted to see! :-D Put another hyperlink button just below the "Click here to try" so people can really see that Tour option. The tab at the top is good, but not so obvious.

One minor tip; in MS Word, you can use the little Magnifying tool on the toolbar to Preview the document. Or you can just use "File > Print Preview" to do the same. That`ll give you a screen with a small dialog box up in that toolbar where you can type in the display size. Type in a size, or use the dropdown for preset sizes. It`ll show the whole page or thereabouts on your screen, prior to screen capture.

For your slide where you show the Word document, the screen capture only shows the top portion, and I think it`d look more professional is you first preview the document in Word (on your development computer), capture it more in full size, then use that as the slide.

Other than that, it`s terrific.

I do have one conceptual thought, which just happened tonight. We had to send an invoice to a new customer who`s not a PayPal member. Our method was PayPal anyway. Why? Because they have a "click to pay" option, handling the transaction even for non-members.

These online invoices are interesting. Can the invoice call up a transaction processing system, where the customer can click and go to a secure site, then simply pay the invoice? Maybe I didn`t see that in the tour...but it got me really thinking about these types of products.

Really nice tour....definitely! (I`m happy.)

Aaron - thanks for the feedback, I will work on a features page. The tour section will also be expanded to highlight the important features and functions of the service.

Craig - thanks also for your feedback. I have added a link to the tour in the footer ( http://www.invoiceplace.com ), hopefully this will draw as many visitors as possible to the tour.

In regards to the Word and PDF full page preview I`ll spend some time to see what can be done here. My delimna is displaying a high quality, readable image within the space available.

Lastly - integration with payment services is a possible future feature of Invoiceplace. Your invoice could include a PayPal `Pay Now` button which would be configured for the invoice amount, and to go to your PayPal account. Ideally a receipt would then be automatically created in Invoiceplace when payment is received through PayPal.

Regards,
Scott

Perfect! I just checked out the second link to view screenshots, and it`s exactly what was needed.

Regarding capturing Word images, if you need help email me.

I can take the Word file you`re wanting, and I have Paint Shop Pro and other tools, to capture a JPG at whatever size you want.
