    Hello everyone,

    I'm a maker and I'm new to Shapeways. I'm in the process of refining models and opening up a shop. I was wondering, can you create your own creator app? For example, there's a "Custom Ring" creator (www.shapeways.com/creator/custom-ring). Can I make a creator app for my own product? Like "...creator/my_product?" Please let me know if I need to clarify.

    Thanks and I'm very excited to be here!

    we'd also be keen to hear your thoughts on ShapeJS on the dedicated ShapeJS forum. Please share both the good and bad so we can improve it!

    Hey guys,

    Sorry bartv, I didn't see your response until now. Yeah, I'll definitely post on the ShapeJS Forum as I'm refining my creator app.

    Stupid question time: once I finish making this app and it's open for others to use, do I make a profit every time it's used? Or maybe this is a better question to post on the ShapeJS forum?

    Thanks!

    We're not ready yet to support this, but obviously that's something we're considering :) Please post your suggestion on the ShapeJS forum so the ShapeJS team sees it too.

    Thanks!

    Hey Bart,

    Yes, that would be a great motivator for folks. Ok, I'll post on there. Maybe it can at least get a conversation started about it.

    Thanks again!
