Hi, thanks for posting your concerns, and I understand where you're coming from. Our visible payoff is creating a social network around payments - and while we will never charge fees on tips, there are many other services we can introd

Good question. For now we're just trying to make a product that both fans and artists are excited about and will use - a product we'd want to use. And since our initial product is tipping, we're committed to never taking a fe

Very good point, thanks. This was just the landing page, but you're 100% right. Adds to TODO list .

Nice idea. The star grading rating features gives instant feedback as you hover, so I expected the same from the thumbs up/down rating feature. Also, changing color to green/red when I click should be instant, not once the ajax ha
