Track ID

It's official, my App, Tracks of Southern African animals is now up and available on the iTunes App Store. When the status changed from Waiting for review to In Review, things went very quickly and it was only a matter of hours before the iTunes message that it was approved and up for sale. Now I need to finish adding to the data bases in the App and do the updates I had planned. My greatest problem is finding images that I can use. There are images on the Web, but a great number of them are owned by Getty Images or Lightbox, both of which demand large sums of money for licenses, large enough that the number of Apps that i would have to sell to just cover their cost is ridiculous. The most helpful group has been the South Africa National Parks, who have not only provided images but have asked if I need higher resolution images. Their only requirement is that I make attribution to their images on the pages, so you will see some of the icon images on the Notes page have their web address and copyright notice, a small price to pay in my book.

So what's the next App? I'm not sure at this time. I will have to see what draws my interest. Meanwhile, it's back to the written word and "On the Trail of Smuts".
