Just out of interest, is this costing megabucks for licensing the themes correctly? I'm under the impression that on a lot of sites (such as where you got your homepage theme ;)) you need to buy a special license if you're going to offer multiple users access to the same theme (e.g. akin to running a wordpress-mp site and letting users choose from themes you have purchased). I'd look into this now, as it's a fantastically well executed idea you're running with, and it'd be a shame for you to lose out as soon as you start gaining traction.
- aonic 15y agoAre you talking about ThemeForest, or is there another one like it with great themes?
- mootothemax 15y agoI'm talking about ThemeForest. There seem to be some people who persistently claim that you need the extended license for SaaS apps; something that plainly isn't true. However, if you're buying themes so that users can choose amongst them for their app's sales site, I think there's a good chance that crosses over into extended license territory. I'd advise looking into it at any rate.
- aculver 15y agoGreat question. The templates for the actual app sites are built by @nickmjones. Before I started working with Nick, I looked at some of those template options. They were really expensive for the type of licensing we would need and more importantly, I didn't find enough of them that really clicked with me.
- mootothemax 15y agoAh, fantastic stuff, really pleased that you have that covered :-D I really like the concept and execution... now I just need to write a phone app ;)
