RE: SugarSteem "My Profile" Final Design Mock Up
What about broader funding? How far is the loss- if you don't mind sharing? There are several major funding app initiatives coming out. If people knew about this more, they might be motivated to use your interface more and volunteer, delegate, donate, etc.
Right now, all the tools letting users set beneficiaries are taking a cut. 😷 And some of the other apps are taking a cut. I understand but it sucks when trying to use the platforms for things like charity.
If there was a way to add in a way for users to pay to do something like change their post stylesheet colors (server side using color pickers and boxes) I believe that could fund it for you.
If I could go into my profile and pay $10 USD/per year so that I could use google fonts, fontawesome, text sizes, colors, etc. that parsed and fell back when viewed on other interfaces, I would pay for that.
I'm sure there's ways to monetize it innovatively and raise funds. :)
sounds like you have an idea in the making. Sadly none of which is aligned with my goal this year. I dont have any desire to make this into myspace. I will be building out my UI. I wouldnt want to build anything that customized for each user. its not scalable for me.
As for building and how much its taken. well so far ive dedicated about 500 hours so far on all my iterations, time, design work, radio commitments etc. The UI is meant to improve many areas for the community but alike the creators that charge a beneficiary i completely agree with them and it makes total sense. Its for the hard work that very few truly put in.
I havent decided yet, though delegations to join the UI might be my route. Unsure. If you delegate to the UI you can use it etc. that might be what im doing im unsure. right now im trying to enjoy it without thinking about it.
Yes, I completely understand. It's great work. Congrats :)
