Someone using the app.

It will show what the app is about and its unique features.
I think it will generate more sales.
Most users look at birthday image, don't bother to read and go away :/

Look at iBeer
if they just had a snapshot of the beer it would not have sold so much I think.

but they have someone actually demonstrating the application in one image

hope this helps!
Hmm, thanks for you input Inkstar.

We've had positive reaction about the application to everyone we showed it to, so we thought it would appeal to more people, but it hasn't. When we conceived the idea, there were no competing apps either. But one appear a week before our release date and another appeared on the exact same day as our release date. Our app looks much better, so I thought we had a good chance. But it didn't pan out that way.

For version 1.1, we'll take your advice and do a photoshoot of the application and perhaps even do a video of it and post it on youtube.

Will apple allow mentioning of the video in the application's description?
