It is easy to use and navigate around, it is light and that is good for photos. This is something i am considering . I am not sure about the menu. I like the idea of having the menu on…

Edited thermoformed piece.

I have done the same thing with the thermoformed piece as with the cube. The object is more visible and it stands out. It has this retail look. When purchasing something online I often see images like this on white or black background, so the product floats in this white or black space. It…
