Scoutzie is a great company to work with. Our project that went through Scoutzie hit some snags for many reasons which were completely outside of Scoutzie's control. Scoutzie promptly offered us a refund of the full amount remaining in escrow and declined our attempts at giving them back the fee portion of the refund. After the resolution of our Scoutzie contract the designer ended up signing a contract directly with us for this project which was of a much broader scope then our original project on Scoutzie. We continued the project and have produced a great product that I hope to share soon. The Scoutzie founders were very nice and understanding people to work with throughout the whole process and I'm sure this new product will be a success.

PS: I'm glad the site works fine without Javascript enabled. Who does this and why? Do you like browsing the web where 80% of website's functionality is broken because you think its a good idea to browse with JavaScript disabled. Makes no sense.

  > Who does this and why? I'm one of them. I do this because of malicious adverts and because of tracking systems. These cost privacy, but also real money (a well-publicized exampple is ordering airline tickets) > Do you like browsing the web where 80% of website's functionality is broken because you think its a good idea to browse with JavaScript disabled. Makes no sense. I agree, it wouldn't make sense if people liked broken websites, and I'm pretty sure that they don't. But I think what you mean is that I should enable JS because it is in wide use. For me, that is not a good enough reason. As a former web application developer, I do believe that most of those websites could do fine without JS!

    With 'malicious adverts' I mean malware being spread via advertisement systems. These tend to use JS, Flash, Java and such.
