Mel says:
Oh my goodness – I totally forgot my credits, what am I like????
The illustration is by the one and only Gavin Strange (@jamfactory) and I love it rather a lot, as you can probably tell.
The music is “New Shoes” by Paolo Nutini.
Thanks for all of the lovely comments guys x

Nice claws!
Better business model than many of the TC50 – must be an aspiring iPhone coder out there willing to have a go at this! Richard @ mobilepie.co.uk springs to mind!
and the url is still available for $9.95

Oh, I just feel so much better on Thursdays…
Now, I am not the supreme geek or shoe shopping hound that you are, and despite being the curmudgeonly luddite that is my nature, I have to say that you most certainly are on to something there. I see a hoard of women in the very near future cruising the aisles of shoe stores, snapping photos of footwear, and using GPS positioning to find the perfect pair all thanks to you, iPhone, and Shuuuuuz!

Gav says:

Can there be a boys version of the app called ‘Plimsolzzzzz’?
P.S Thanks for the doodle love!!!

Hehe that would be such a cool idea for us girls! It’s not always easy finding the perfect shoes! :p

Sideshow Bob says:
Nice.
Will it include “Shuuuuuz Seeker” for when you go to a new place it will use GPS to track down local shoe stores?
There maybe a market for “Sneaker Seeker” too
Thanks for the Thursday fun!

Four days late, but. One of our staff members worked long hours over the weekend to get a response done. Have a peek. Just scroll down until you see “Happy Thursday from Mel.”
