Like Candogoods, I am also using your app for my children - in my case as a "learn to read" aid. I had been using another flashcard app for this, but gave up on it due to its surplus of bugs and complete lack of developer support. I've only been using your app for a day now, and can already tell that it is vastly superior, both in features and stability. I would make a few suggestions, though, that I believe would make this app work almost as well as a simple "storybook" creator as it does for complex flash cards.
1. As Candogoods suggested, picture on top, text on bottom. Sounds like you've already thought of this, which is awesome!
2. Ability to choose a picture as a "deck icon", and have these icons displayed on the deck selection screen. (for kids just learning to read, they can choose a deck based on a picture they recognize, rather than words that they may not be able to read quite yet.)
3. Ability to completly hide the interface, with the excepion of the titlebar. The little buttons on the bottom are tempting for little eyes/fingers!
If there are already ways to accomplish items 2/3 above, please let me know - I've played around with a bunch of options, but didn't see a way to make either of those things happen. All in all, though awesome app! It's pretty cool that you've developed a tool that can be as useful to a kindergarten child just learning to read as it is to a lawyer studying for the bar exam!
