At 24 I have 300+ books, and the fact that I feel the need to mention it indicates that I am your target audience. The graphic designer in me cringes at your layout and typography. Letters and their arrangement are important when you want to appeal to book lovers. I am not sure if "trophies" work to enthuse the elitist book reader because after all, my leather bound Bibliothèque de la Pléiade version of "À la recherche du temps perdu" makes me superior to any Dan Brown reader. I jest, a bit.
- pmtarantino 14y agoYou are definitely our target :) Thanks for your feedback. Of course, book lovers really are into design, cover designs, illustration, etc. But there is not only a unique design which collectors appeal. For example, you have antique book collectors, but also horror book collectors, so we have to target to all of them. That's why we chose a neutral design :) The trophies are an incentive to upload more books, and can say "I have more trophies than [X]", just like you can do the same in FourSquare. We are working in special trophies for people into special books, like you. For example, the "Antique Trophy" :)
