Well, this is awkward. Take a tool where I'd define two of its key points as being clean and simple (to look at and use), then charge money to add two fairly random features that mess up the look.
- avenger123 13y agoEveryone likes to bring out their individuality. I can definitely see a lot of users happily uploading personal pictures for board backgrounds.
- yogo 13y agoLike MySpace? I think people should let their tools look the way the want it to, but it always goes downhill from there. It's one of those things where it's better to just keep it simple and standard looking.
- avenger123 13y agoIf you want to keep it simple and standard looking, go ahead. I don't see that changing in any way. A classic use case of the new feature for business users, would be using different board colors to easily differentiate between boards. Just this would be a nice usability win.
- jacalata 13y agoYou'd think so, but from when they said 'Trello Gold is for individuals' it sounds like it won't even be available to business accounts.
- bgertonson 13y agoBoard backgrounds could be useful if you have a lot of boards. Otherwise, it shouldn't be awkward at all, unless you want to give them money and are disappointed they didn't give you a reason to.
- rhizome 13y agoI'm pretty sure you don't have to use any of the features.
- rwallace 13y agoThe real point is that it gives people who have money reason and excuse to pay for a tool they find useful and enjoyable. It doesn't really matter if the cat pictures in themselves are actually useful.
