Nice work! Off topic, but what platform is Scribophile built on, or is it all custom?

Clause in the contract, but remember it cuts both ways. I was recently creative director of a small software company that let their design team go. When I started the owner changed my employee contract from 14 to 28 days with the assumption

Find meetups or user groups near you, whereabouts in CO? Local IxDA chapter might be good. I ended up at my current job by being found on Sortfolio, might be worth a look there as well.

Certainly! I find myself shilling this book all the time. It's a great starting point for people dipping their toes in the design pool because it tells you just enough to improve simple stuff without being preachy or over-complicating thing

No, just didn't want to post gofuckyourself.com here, but others already did so why not :D But speaking of secret handshakes, don't suppose anyone here remembers CFUS by any chance?

I've had mixed reactions when I mention it, but back then (2002ish) they paid my broke college-self infinitely better, and were doing stuff that was so far ahead of the "mainstream" clients wanting $200 all-flash sites. I really regret not
