Alizee America App

woohoo · #1 06-14-2009, 11:39 PM

Hey I was just thinking that we (in other words an awesome smart programer) should create an application for the iphone or itouch about Alizee America and Alizee. It could just be a mobile version of Alizee america with videos that work on the iphone or with a little trivia game about Alizee. I don't know exactly how the relationship between the original site and the mobile version of the site works but I just thought it would be awesome to have Alizee on an iPhone. It would also make her known to more people thus increasing fan numbers, which is always good.

Your thoughts?

Ps I wrote this on an iphone it was annoying.

yea seriously..

Is there a member here with experience with software? Enough to create a specialized form of AA that can work properly on an iPod Touch or an iPhone?

I'm making due with a home screen bookmark with the icon being an extreme close up of Alizée's signature "A"
---------------
I would say maybe have the app very similar to the iWhatever's default home screen! Like one little button to take you to forums, to podcasts, videos, recent, etc.

I'll edit this later with a visual

Great idea for the home screen button any picture would be too small but the A would the perfect size.

The programer would need to know more than just java ,they would need that special software that apple sells to aspering app creators as well as the knowledge to use it.

Can't say I have any iPhone knowledge, but it does sound like a good idea if someone else does!

Ben, hit me up when you see me online, I have something already in the works for the Yelle forum. It's in the Apple approval process right now. Can also be used for AAm / LT.

Yes, Apple does review all applications before publishing them. I do not think it requires money to publish an application though I think Apple takes a small commission should there be a price to download the app. Though I would not expect (nor want) this app to be of cost.

Yea, it's called SDK (Software Developer's Kit).

I have (or had) very brief knowledge of how to write apps, not nearly enough for an AA application.

Well here is my very quick and rough idea for what the home page would look like. If anybody does decide to take on this project, I don't care if you use this format as long as I get some form of credit.

notes: the (i) is supposed to be that little translucent-grey info button

a larger version

yea, the navigation will have to be edited.

I was originally thinking making everything in little icons like the ipod screen itself, but for some reason I ended up making something extremely similar to the original AA site. I will make a different home screen with everything from "Home" to "Donate"

Thinking now, maybe the app should cost something to help run AA. I don't know the rate and generosity the donations come in at but I'm sure this could help

Nice someone should pick up the project and do it?
