          • Be able to add notes and photos to diagrams

            It would be great if you could add a note and an example photo to the diagram to show how the setup looks.

            • Allow to Magnify & Shrink Modifiers

              Currently there is no option to designate the size of a light source to the subject. It would be useful if you could make modifiers such as soft boxes bigger and smaller, maybe via zoom feature or something.

                • More speedlite items

                  Cool and useful app! But I'm shooting with regular speedlites. I'd like regular flash with umbrella, regular flash with snoot, with grid etc etc.

                    • Add ability to share editable diagrams via app

                      Allow iPhone uses to share their diagrams as editable files rather than sending PNG files. It would also be nice to have a list of standards open for public use or allow users to donate setups for public use.

                              Sometimes you shoot not in a studio but in a home or office or another enclosed building. There you usually shoot near walls and windows.

                              Please add a wall and a window in the items I can drag on the diagram

                                • Add rough light-cones for each light, to show feathering

                                  Besides showing the lights themselves, it would be nice to see the "light cone", i.e. the shape of the light each strobe/modifier throws. For example the edges of the cone for a softbox would fade, so rotating the light can show the degree of feathering that is intended more clearly. For harder lights it can show whether the light is intended to hit the subject directly or meant to "glance" off it.

                                  The light-cones could be shown only when a light is selected so as not to confuse things.

                                      • Option to link diagrams created to photos from iPhone albums. Then we can see the results.

                                        The resolution on the iPhone is well enough to show work in a pinch, or over coffe so I usually copy a lot of
                                        my work to my iPhones photo album. . If discussing technique it would be nice to show the photo and have it linked with a diagram created for a better visual understanding. As it is said, a picture is worth a thousand words.

                                        • Add a small footer for name/website of the creator

                                          It would be really useful to be able to brand my setups so others can look for the source and more information (i.e. my blog/website). A small textarea in the footer would be enough.
