Anyone interested in this paid job?

I need someone to develop a simple picture editing program in
wxPython, ideally using the PIL.

It should be similar to picnik.com. For example, see this page:

http://www.picnik.com/app#/create/featured

If that link doesn't work, go to picnik.com, then open a demo photo,
then click "create".

One big difference between Picnik and what I'm building is that mine
won't be web-based. It'll be running in Windows, but that shouldn't
matter at all. It will be integrating with an existing wxPython app,
so no need to build an entire GUI.

Other specs:

- the biggie is to let users add shapes to pictures, drawing on the
directly. For an example of what I mean, see the "Stickers" category
in Picnik. Users should be able to place shapes, change colors of the
shapes, drag them around, rotate them, and resize them. And in the
back-end of the application, it should be easy for me to add new
shapes.

- ability to zoom and crop the pictures

- ability to convert to b&w or sepia

- ability to add frames around pictures

- I'd like the whole interface to be very touchscreen friendly,
meaning big hit states for everything.

- I'll pass the application a picture, and there's a "save" button,
and if saved, it saves a copy of the picture. The interface will
always be fullscreen.

I'm a Python programmer myself, and I'd love to find an expert Python
programmer, ideally who's also an expert in wxPython. I'll have a few
of other projects besides this as well.

Probably best to email me off-list to discuss, you can email me at
jaqueshaas at gmail dot you know what.

My program whyteboard does most of this: http://whyteboard.org

wow - nice piece of work…
