Try

1) At the end of the rainbow (people always forget this one)

2) If you can hold a couple more months, ask Santa for one, but that requires you to have been a good hacker all the year and have always freed all resources on the destructors and never left a dangling pointer.

3) Post a job add on Stackoverflow.com

4) Post a job add here

5) Profit ??

Ha!

Well, thanks for trying to help - I'm afraid I'm due for lumps of coal this year, so I can't ask Santa for help.

I know there are some designers around here (http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=732283), so I was hoping there were some who were also interested in joining a team of people as a collaborator instead of as hired help... We're checking out all of our options; it's just that we feel having someone who was really strong on the front-end of things would be a perfect fit to the skill set we've got now.

Look, stackoverflow.com does have a job session. You really might want to post there. Also, I do know some designers, at least 3, but they all suffer from the innate problem of being Brazilians since I am Brazilian myself. I don't think they would be willing to move to USA to work for you.

There's a subtle point here that I think is important; we're not looking for someone to work for us, we're looking for someone to work with us.

English connectives are difficult for me, but I understand your point. Again, I don't think they would be willing to move. Would that be a problem?

I don't think anyone would be able to move, no. We're already fully remote anyways since Kirubakaran and I are in different parts of the country.

Have them drop me a line at [email protected] and we'll talk :D
