You might want to add this bit into your copy. I wasn't following it from what you currently have.

Love the idea. Definitely will work for some industries.

I really can't understand this. Do I just not understand how the "game" is played. OR am I just missing something? Someone please enlighten me!

Re:Drop the ego and prove "I could make that so much better" on Friday February 14, 2014 @09:27AM (#7238632)
Sounds like you're on the right path. Nothing to be ashamed. Although you do get that feeling when you're not "changing the world" . But if you're helping people in reality you are changing their world for the better.
Re:Dropbox raises about $250 million at $10 billion valuation on Saturday January 18, 2014 @12:58PM (#7081587)

I'm just starting on my journey with products and Nathan's produced so much content that I can look to for advice. I couldn't imagine the difficulty without having those available.

I just read through some of the comments. So much negativity!

Great to see such a massive success Jason.

Re:PSD to HTML is Dead on Tuesday January 14, 2014 @10:07PM (#7061422)
I agree. I think it's obviously ideal to find someone who can design in photoshop translate that with html css javascript and create the entire front end experience. But is it practical?

I'm not sure. I think the designer programmer relationship needs to change. The designer must understand the programmer is going to have to do some "interpretation" of the original design. It's not going to look exactly the same.
