@admin It would make it MUCH easier if you could add a link that says "take photo" just below the image when viewing a part.
This would be ideal for people with decent cameras on their phone.

Right now, we take a photo on our phone, e-mail it to ourselves then upload it to the correct part.
Others I assume using an actual camera would have to move the SD card back and forth from camera to computer as pictures are taken.

Instead we could just hit "take photo" and then it would open up the camera in the phone to take the picture and upload it directly. Skipping the e-mail portion and save a bunch of time.

What do you think?
Chris

    You could do that if you used the Brick Owl website on your phone/tablet.

    It's probably still best to load photos in image processing software to remove the background and other manipulations...

    There's no need to take out the SD card. Here, I leave the camera connected by USB when snapping photos, and I use a tiny script to open the last taken photo in Gimp right away. Most professional grade cameras can even be controlled over USB from the computer, I never found an use for that though. :)
