I love your idea!

I'd recommend to start designing what you expect users to do in your service. For instance, when I visit your site as a new user, what do you want me to do?

Also I'd recommend to start from paper prototyping before writing codes. Once you build strong user flows, then hire/order design issues.

There are many crowdsourcing service as http://www.elance.com/

Thanks so much for the feed back! This is about the 5th or 6th iteration (2nd live web site)

I knew this but lost track of it along the way, and have added a prominent prompt to login. I am aware of elance, but I had not thought of using it for this.

Thanks!
