Hi
I am developing the final code for a Stamp Image application called StampTag (similar to MP3 Audio Tags). This application may, or may not have, interest to anyone other than myself.
I asked the same question in another Forum and no response. However, I decided to ask in this Forum as there may be some new people willing to help. It's alright if no response.
The application adds stamp information to a stamp image (bmp, dib, gif, jpg, jpeg, png, svg, tif, tiff). Due to the structure of these image formats, any data added to the end of the image file does not prevent the image from being displayed. In effect, the added information is transparent. In this manner, the stamp information is carried with the image and can readily be accessed.
An added advantage is that one can move a stamp image and not lose the information. Later, there could be an application to import the information into WORD, EXCEL, etc.
This thread is to see if anyone wants to help with testing code. Any Windows version is applicable (XP and up, X86 legacy code) and only requires, at minimum, Windows Framework 4, or higher (will explain how to determine this). At first, individual code blocks will be tested (each major block has its own test program, so no need to re-compile). I am looking for someone to "bang" on the code and make modification suggestions. Also includes testing the final product.
If someone is really interested, they can learn VB.NET (free MicroSoft Visual Studio version) as I have no problem teaching someone what I know (I still have a lot to learn) Even as a stripped down Visual Studio it is pretty powerful for a MS freebie and, it isn't all that difficult. Just have to know a few concepts and terminology.
If interested in helping, and/or learning, contact me through the StampBears board or at:
