December 05, 2009 - iCaughtSanta.com™ announces dramatic enhancements to the wildly popular website.
"We've always made it easy to upload a photo, add a Santa and share the picture with others, but this year we've added 'Print-to-Store' capability - so parents can have their photos professionally printed and pick them up the same day at more than 6,500 retail locations nationwide," says founder Steven Lockhardt.
For 'do it yourself' types, iCaughtSanta makes it easy to print photos at home by supplying the pictures in many popular sizes including 4x6, 5x7 and 8x10. Also new this year... one-click photo-sharing via email, Facebook, Twitter and 30 other social networking sites.
The site offers more than 20 Santa poses ranging from the traditional (with milk and cookies) to the outrageous (being kissed by Mommy). Last-minute shoppers can purchase Gift Cards and eGift Certificates for loved ones... making iCaughtSanta a great gift idea even if you don't have kids; perfect for grandparents, God parents, friends, neighbors and nannies.
Another new service this year aims to benefit non-profit groups.The company is seeking schools, churches, associations and other organizations to participate in their new affiliate program, earning 50% commissions in exchange for promoting the CatchACharacter™ network of websites, including iCaughtSanta.com, iCaughtTheEasterBunny.com, iCaughtTheToothFairy.com and iCaughtCupid.com.
iCaughtSanta.com utilizes robust Adobe Flash technology to create the custom images. And although the process can be completed in three simple steps, the site does offer advanced settings for achieving the perfect picture. For example, anyone can easily tweak the size, color and brightness of Santa to match their digital picture. Lockhardt says the site was designed with simplicity in mind…"It's so easy, my mother could do it. In fact, my Mother has done it!"
iCaughtSanta is the brainchild of Lockhardt and his wife Heather who created the site after a close-call in their home one Christmas eve, when Santa forgot to eat the cookies left for him by the couple's daughters. That incident was also the inspiration for a hilarious television commercial that helped launch the company.
When asked what's next for iCaughtSanta, Lockhardt says with a smile "stay tuned for a moving video Santa version and a brand-new mobile version of the website for iPhone and iPod Touch users."
