Graphic user interface for a group of image product designs

1. A computer-implemented method for a user to view image product designs at a graphic user interface, comprising:

displaying multiple of image representations in a page view at a graphic user interface by a computer system, wherein the multiple image representations are associated with different image product types;

receiving a user's selection of one of the multiple image representations in the page view;

in response to user's selection of the one of the image representations, displaying a navigation panel in association with the one of the image representations in the same page view by the computer system, wherein the navigation panel includes a plurality of selections of the product designs for an image product type associated with the one of the image representations, wherein the navigation panel is not in the same page view before the user's selection of the image representation;

receiving a first selection in the navigation panel in the page view;

displaying a first product design in the same page view according to the first selection in place of the one of the image representations;

receiving a second selection in the navigation panel in the page view;

displaying a second product design in the same page view according to the second selection in place of the one of the image representations;

removing the navigation panel from the same page view when the product designs are deselected by the user;

displaying one or more of the multiple of image representations other than the user selected one of the multiple image representations in the page view while the navigation panel in association with the one of the image representations is displayed in the same page view;

receiving a user's selection of another one of the multiple image representations in the page view;

in response to the user's selection of the another one of the image representations, displaying another navigation panel in association with the another one of the image representations in the same page view by the computer system, wherein the another navigation panel includes a plurality of selections of the product designs for an image product type associated with the another one of the image representations;

wherein the multiple image products include a photobook, a photo calendar, a photo greeting card, a multi-panel greeting card, photo stationery, a phone case, a photo mug, an image print, a photo magnet, a photo coaster, or a photo mouse pad.

2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:

displaying one or more of the multiple of image representations other than the user selected one of the multiple image representations in the page view while the first product design is displayed in the same page view.

3. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the first product design and the second product design both incorporate at least one common picture and have different product layouts.

4. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the first product design and the second product design have a same product layout and incorporate different pictures.

5. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:

displaying a rotation guide in association with the first product design, wherein the first product design comprises a plurality of perspective views; and

allowing the user to select one of the perspective views of the first product design using the rotation guide.

6. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:

automatically selecting, by the computer system, one or more user pictures to be incorporated into the group of product designs in association with the image representation.

7. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein t receiving a user's selection of one of the multiple image representations comprises tapping a touch sensitive display device or moving a cursor over the image representation by a user.

8. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the step of receiving a first selection in the navigation panel comprises tapping a touch sensitive display device or moving a cursor over the first selection in the navigation panel by a user.

9. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the navigation panel includes a linear array of grids that define the plurality of selections each associated with one of the product designs.

10. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the navigation panel includes a two-dimensional array of grids that define the plurality of selections each associated with one of the product designs.

11. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the image representation includes a thumbnail image of the product type.

12. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the image representation is a perspective view of the product type.

13. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the computer system includes a mobile device.

14. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the graphic user interface is enabled by a web browser, a client application, or a native application.

15. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the page view includes a web page in a web browser or a screen on a device.
