Jeez, the ads on your site are scammy, distracting, and borderline misleading. Trust gone.
Paul
@dshan Hey there are very very minimal ads on the website. There is only one page with Ads. Which page are you referring to, could you share a screenshot with me please. Will definitely correct this if you are right. My twitter handle @pauljeba, please dm me with reference please. I am surprised with your feedback and want to handle it please.
Paul
@pauljeba @dshan Thanks Darek. The Ad on the right side shouldn't be this big. Let me investigate this. Could you tell me which browser you tested this with please
Derek Shanahan
@pauljeba The ad served to me installed malware on my laptop. Chrome.
Paul
@pauljeba @dshan Oh shit. That should not have happened. Will definitely hunt down the Ad and report it to google as am using google adsense for Ads.

Cool idea, I would use this but I feel like there is an element missing. In Canada (and I believe many other countries.. it was the same when I got a visa for biz travel to India), walmart or wherever has to stamp the back of the photo with their business information, date and I believe they have to sign it. So..when you go to Walmart to get your photo taken, getting photo is only step 1. The other, key step is their verification of the date it was taken, etc...any plans to do this part on your end and send out the physical photos?
Paul
@claytoncorreia Yes, we plan to incorporate printing physical photos soon with this feature in the coming days :)
James Futhey
Really cool idea, polished product! I've done my own passport photos for years in Photoshop (6 on a 4x6 print for about 15¢). Never ran in to an issue, definitely saves some money.
Paul
@futhey Thanks James! And cheers! I too started of using photoshop at first, before building this web app.

Tell me something.. do you use submitted images/files to train an AI?
Paul
@lyondhur No Lyondhur, the submitted images get automatically deleted within 24 hours. The Ai is already well trained, we have partnered with an external organization which builds the model for us with their own data.

Hi there hunters and makers of ProductHunt. Thanks @ryanhawley12 for hunting. Very often we need printable or digital passport photos for ID/Passport/VISA photos. We may not need VISA photos now because of the Coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic, as it is not safe to travel now. You can try our other photo document types for FREE. FEATURES 1. Change Background to White, Light Grey or other automatically based on the country and document type 2. Crop, Align, Rotate, Adjust Brightness, Color, Edit photo, Add Dresses(beta) 3. Compress photos for online applications 4. Create printable photo grids for 4x6, A4, A5, 7x5, 3.5x7, letter, legal photo types for printing at home or CVS, Walgreens, Walmart, etc
Paul
Do you find MakePassportPhoto useful?
Paul
WHY? The cost of printing and taking professional quality photos has gone down drastically. But still photo studios charge a premium of upto 15$ just to get 8 passport photos. Lets change the 20 year industry. You can easily take good photos with today's mobile devices and take great prints with home printers. Or you can also print at Walgreens, CVS, Walmart or other photo printers for as little as 25cents. That would give you a 14$ saving just for one passport photo. Using our free tool, you get guidance to match the requirements of 500+ document types across the world, for both online and offline applications. You can download photos in A4, 6x4, 7x5, 3.5x5, A5, Legal or Letter paper formats, so that you can take a single print out and get upto 40 Passport Photos. If you are in a hurry and feel that your background needs to change try our AI- Automatic service for free. You can buy the photos for 3.99$. I think the home page needs further improvement, currently it has a huge 40% bounce rate. Looking forward to hearing your suggestions and improvements on improving the bounce rate and other mistakes I would have made in the product.
Paul
@owenfar1 Well its a personal preference. We see most people going online to save time than visiting a physical store. Online has its own advantages.
Hardik Gupta
@paul_jebasingh This is very useful product. Some feedback on the homepage. When I click Create Photo on the homepage, it shows an error because I haven't selected a country and type. This is counter intuitive and jarring. Create Photo should just take me to the next page where I should be able to pick country and type (if not done on homepage).
Paul
@hardikgupta Thanks Hardik, will try to implement A/B testing and share the results here.
Asif Islam
Well done guys. You just made my day. Love the app. Keep up the good work.
Paul
@asifpix Thanks Asif. Thanks for sending some positive vibe across :)

I have used an iOS app called ‘ID Passport Photo’ for the last year that does exactly the same for just about every id photo format in the world. It works ok, not fantastic. But the image is retained locally on my iPhone so I have control of the material, which I like.
Paul
@cmottes Hi Chris, its understandable. We have automatic crons in place that deletes the photos within 24 hours of creation. Could I ask you for a suggestion. How can we make the data policy and process more transparent and comfortable for you?
Chris Mottes
@paul_jebasingh my point was, your app is not that innovative, and it requires me to be online and trust your handling of my data. I will stick to the one I have.
Shinkai Kenji
Congrats on the launch, Make Passport Photo! Not what I typically see on Product Hunt, but it’s a refreshing idea 🎉
Paul
@shinkaikenji @ryanhawley12 Thanks Shinkal, I used to create passport photos for my friends and family using Photoshop when I was in college. Now exploring the idea of taking it commercially through this web app.
Dari Pavlíčková
Nice product, very useful right now. Thanks.
Paul
@daripavlickova Thank you. Any suggestions?
Mark Aune
This looks like a great idea.
Paul
@markaune Thanks Mark!

makepasseportphoto is a really cool product! I'm the type of guy who's always losing his passport while traveling so; it's a mess going through all of the processes to get a picture taken ($), going to the passport center to get it done($$), receiving a message that your photo doesn't work, going to take another photo ($$$), and re-doing the passport application ($$$$). I enjoy the fact that you're showing that your AI is excellent. I tried it with a bunch of pictures, and the quality is marvelous. Keep up the excellent work, and I'm saving your tool for my next work Visa :)
Paul
@bujold19 Gabriel thanks for the positive words and checking us out. The AI feature is something we released recently based on all the data gained over the last 9 years.
Olivier Robichaud
Excellent work guys!
Gage Farmer
Nice idea in these uncertain times.
Jim Minor
Looks Interesting, can't wait ...price seems on point.
Paul
@jimminor1 Thanks Jim, was wondering if the price was right. Thanks for the feedback :)
Chad Allen
Easy-to-use interface during engagement as well.
Paul
@chadallen Thanks you so much Chad. Still not convinced how the home page looks. There is a lot of room for improvement :(
William Moala
These are the kind of initiatives we need 🙌 Very good work guys!
Paul
@williammoala Thank you for your motivation William :)
