"Hello CapFive!
Currently we offer only Flash-based Product designer. But we think over developing a new product designer based on html and java. It will be a donation product. Once we take a development decision, we will start to gather donations."

Just wondering if there is an alternate solution for flash for this product designer add-on?"

"Still working on the site. It is going to take me some time to get it up and running as that is not my primary job. I can only work on it in my spare time, which is not a lot.
For the software though I must say, I have been looking for something like this for at least two years. Although there are quite a few scripts of similar purpose out there, in my view, none of them would match PD (Alt-team).
Can't yet say much about your after sales services, but I believe you are good at it too.
I'll let you know when my site is ready so if you think is ok it could perhaps feature in your show cases. Something for the future.
At this moment I'm very happy with the purchase. So to all of you guys: "Well done".
