- newmediaclay 16y ago"We have a very flexible work culture that is focused on putting good, smart people in positions where they have responsibility and trusting them to do a great job. What the ‘work’ actually looks like is much less important to us." Wow. Can't put it much better than that.
- johnb 16y agoYeah, I work there... and sometimes the level of trust you're given is mindblowing. It's incredibly motivating, though sometimes a little scary :)
- sammcd 16y agoRunning out of money forced them to cut features and launch. On my first project running out of time before school started forced us to cut features and launch. Since then my projects have been after work and I haven't had any force requiring me to do this... So they haven't been launched. Seems like some sort of outside force requiring you to launch is a good thing to have.

- enjo 16y ago"Whaddya say you go ahead and launch? Don't make me come back here again... you won't like it if I have to come back here again."

- markstahler 16y agoI've spent more money through Envato sites (Themeforest specifically) than any other web site except for Ebay. I am glad to pay for the quality products they provide (through the designers of course). Keep up the good work.
