Landing page launched for My Cosplace

My new project has a landing page ready to gather interest - https://mycosplace.com

My Cosplace is something I thought of while at a cosplay photoshoot meet-up at a convention - solving my own problem. It is targeting a niche audience of cosplayers who attend events in cosplay and want to be tagged in their photos. The idea is to make it easier for this to happen.

There are a few ways cosplayers handle this currently. Sometimes we stand around looking each other up on Instagram in the moment (though cell service is terrible in some conventions). Others might have a sticker or something with their Instagram handle printed on it. Most of us though spend days following a convention scanning Facebook groups or hashtags for photos of ourselves.

The solution - have a stack of cards with your social media handles on them that you can easily hand out to those who take your picture. This presents a problem though - they might forget WHO gave them this card, and cosplayers constantly have new costumes so photos on your card won't help much.

This is where the website gallery and QR comes in. You can easily update photos with new costumes on a website. The QR code will take people to your site, which also has all of your social media links.

From a technical side, I'm still figuring out how I'm going to handle some of it, but I believe I've found enough plausible options to move forward with validating it in the community.
