May 25, 201016 yr I have a new website idea, with the domains already purchase just incase, but I want some feedback before actually starting this. the domains I have are developerfolio.com and .co.uk - my idea is for it to be a showcase type website for webdevelopers/designers and am just after some feedback as to whether the name behind it would be what people expect from the site. I thought you guys would be the best people to ask for opinions. so let me know your thoughts... what does the name 'developerfolio' say to you? if this is a good idea, then I would be looking for a designer to get on board with payment being a percentage stake in the site and a percentage of the revenue the site takes.
May 25, 201016 yr Not that this is meant to sound intentionally harsh but what that post above says to me (rather than the domain name the whole post) is that you do not believe in the project sufficiently enough to part with any money upfront for the design of said website. I know it sound harsh but if you truly believed in the project then you would want all the revenue for yourself and would be willing to pay top dollar for a killer design.
May 25, 201016 yr 'developerfolio' to me, says it is a personal web developer's portfolio showcase or a showcase for web developers. As a designer I am not sure how the domain would be of use for designers? Just my opinion.

I know it sound harsh but if you truly believed in the project then you would want all the revenue for yourself and would be willing to pay top dollar for a killer design. not quite sure I agree with you on this - I am getting feedback to see if a project is viable....if the response from people is 'doesnt make sense etc' then I wouldnt waste my time with it. If the site does go ahead then as a developer I would need a designer, and without funds to pay for a design, the alternative offer is a percentage in the site. thats my thinking anyways
May 25, 201016 yr it makes sense but it's been done a percentage in the site is a percentage of uncertainty If my bank or other services would accept "a percentage in the site." that i could pass on to them then would be fine and dandy. however if you're serious, you'll need to find the money from somewhere and pay a designer or find someone to do it on your terms: good luck with that!
