An apparatus for obtaining an image and measurements of a foot is disclosed. The apparatus includes a housing holding a plate with a top surface to allow a user to stand on the apparatus. Within the interior of the housing is a compact mirror assembly arrangement that includes a plurality of mirrors to reflect the image of the foot from the top surface of the plate to at least one camera within the interior of the housing. The compact mirror assembly includes a top-facing mirror running along the longitudinal direction of the housing at an angle to the bottom surface. The top-facing mirror reflects the image of the foot from the top surface towards an angled mirror. The angled mirror is perpendicular to the bottom surface and is angled facing the top-facing mirror. The angled mirror reflects the image of the foot reflected from the top-facing mirror towards the camera.

A manufacturer or other retailer provides a consumer with a graphical user interface for customizing an article. The graphical user interface includes an analog-style selection control that allows a user to select at least one characteristic of a feature of the article. With this type of selection control, a consumer need not select a particular control value or designate a combination of control values to choose a characteristic for a feature of an article to be custom-manufactured. Instead, the consumer need only select a position or value relative to a range of positions or values provided by the analog-style selection control.
