FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
SILICON VALLEY'S SpinPicTM
ANNOUNCES STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP WITH ez prints, Inc.
Relationship Offers Convenience & Versatility for Printing Large
Panoramic and Virtual Reality Digital Images
New York City, IAP2000, June 26, 2000 - On the eve
of PC EXPO, SpinPic , a closely-held Silicon Valley Startup enterprise
announced a new strategic partnership with ez prints, the Internet's
preferred e-photo finishing source.
"We are committed to making the digital photography experience as
convenient and easy for the end-user as possible," said Bob Miller,
president and CEO of ez prints. "This partnership allows panoramic
and virtual reality photographers the first expedient method of
transforming their unique format digital images into 35mm-quality prints
that can each sell for as much as a thousand dollars or more. It is yet
another example ez prints' commitment to providing customers and
business partners with a spectrum of quick and high-quality solutions
for printing digital images."
Digital cameras present an easy and convenient way to create exciting
prints in panoramic form. Using leading stitching software, photo
enthusiasts can combine separate shots into a continuous image and send
their work to ez prints for guaranteed 24-hour processing. ez prints
offers a variety of prints from wallet size to 20x30, panoramic prints
in sizes up to 12 x 60, as well as a variety of photo personalized
items.
"When I first heard of ez prints, I was somewhat skeptical of what
I would receive back as image prints." Said W. David Schwaderer,
SpinPic President and CTO. "But, when I received my first printed
images, I was simply stunned. Each panoramic print was faithfully
rendered on Kodak Professional photographic paper. The six-inch high
prints were as much as four feet long, and each was simply flawless. I
was so impressed, I immediately called to thank them and the partnership
idea was born. At SpinPic, our partnering motto is 'Run with the
winners' and the ez prints' relationship fully embodies this."
Continuing the ez prints' tradition as the industry's most innovative
and customer-friendly e-photo finishing source, this relationship
leverages ez prints' already existing "push-button" solution
for both consumers and business partners.
