I partially agree with the OP. It's easy to say execution is everything. I have an honest question for you guys. I am working on a project that needs design help. I am a coder and could use a designer. The one I could afford and connect online is another programmer with decent design skills. (he has a decent portfolio). My project is not rocket science but it has some novel elements to it. How do you make sure that someone you outsource it for few hundred bucks is not gonna steal your idea and launch it themselves? Especially when it is someone you've never met.
