What can I put in it?

anselmo

A client doesn't want to put pictures in the app, not in the photo section because the pics are too small as he said. What can I put in it? Any suggestions is greatly appreciated.

Brand names he represents (then call the menu "Partners" instead of "Photos". Press clippings ("Press"). Color Swatches ("Styles"). Testimonials ("Customers"). What's your client's industry and can I offer him a pair of glasses?

He owns an hair salon. He did not like the photos because are small

The photos are NOT small. They're rectangular, the way people want them in Instagram and other social networks.
Most hair salons "exclusively" distribute luxury hair care brands. It's a major source of revenue for them to upsell stuff like conditioners. Ask him about it. You'll find he's proud of the brands he peddles.
Take the logos of those brands and crop them to be huge inside a square photo.
If you now show him the photo gallery (which you call "exclusive" or something) he'll see all the brands he loves. Sold.

Putting brand logos in place of photos is something we do a lot when invited to demo App.Cat at trade shows. It's a winner every time. Use it.

Are those tails? On the costumes? Brilliant!
@anselmo I use the "brand name trick" all the time because it instantly makes an app more valuable due to brand recognition. It also saves me some time while pre making an app for a demo because I am never quite sure what photos might trigger a negative emotion when pitching. Brands are safest.
I often use http://www.brandsoftheworld.com/ to get crisp and clean logos of brands who only have jagged gifs on their site.

thanks @SarahSkinnyGold , had no idea that existed.
Sheeeeee so nuch i don't know LOL

That site is a true life- and time saver. Make sure you have the proper permissions to continue using the logos if a client doesn't bite. If you don't remove them from the app they will stay visible on the app download site and attract the attention of greedy IP lawyers...

Yes, @SarahSkinnyGold - those are in fact tails. And ears, too. I believe we only feed them milk, so the gorgeous ladies can get into character

DO post more pix of appKittens! Nice display. Very original!
