QR Code Generator with Graphic Center

Just came across this, and as I far as I know is the only generator with this feature. You can upload a square-shaped graphics file which will be reduced to 50 by 50 pixels, and choose a URL for the code to represent.

I have not tried using a colour graphic, but the QR Code works. I have enlarged the output code (you can either output as PDF or PNG), so I would imagine that if you enlarge the code manually, you could in theory place a better graphic in the center.

A good overview of how Fortune 500 companies are using QR code currently and some ideas you can implement yourself. A good resource.

Great chart breakdown of the pro’s and cons. Saved me writing a lengthy comparison piece too!

I think QR Codes low barrier to entry, non specialist hardware on the part of both the user or vendor mean it will remain around for a while longer.
