   Heh, fair enough. Certainly not trying to avoid the "issue" :) I think like you point out, tilt shift only works for certain shots, the same way I'm not going to use on-camera flash to try and light up a mountain at night :)

   Nice, my issue with FF was in trying to use a gradient mask. Not sure how viable it is to automatically generate the SVG via JS.

   Yeah, you definitely don't need jQuery if you're doing it image for image. I did it this way so that I had a method to quickly pass settings on and generate the necessary effects on the fly.

   Thanks Sacha! Definitely pointless now :) Think there are some cool opportunities down the line though (i.e. mixing with jQuery facial recognition on profile pages, etc.). Really looking forward to seeing how these sort of CSS3 filters deve

   Really like the hierarchy, my only problem is it would be another app on top of existing ones that already sync quite well and are fully mobile (i.e. g-tasks).

    Why use the US and not a jurisdiction like the UK?

    Part 2 is already up (just a long post split into two), but I agree, I think that would be an awesome basis for a separate article.

    I'd say so, but interestingly enough, we were talking about (and very specifically) food trucks as a potential client for a well optimized one pager. This would work nicely I think for pizzeria's, cheap takeaways, etc.

    Why would users pay for something so basic? A week after you commercialize it, it will show up on the wp.org plug-in directory by someone else for free. The WordPress community is cool like that :)

    Cool project & a good concept I think works well for the people you are targeting. Notes: - Front page is tough to understand. Feel like you need a block clearly outlining the concept right at the top, and then jumping to the current pr

    I've tried so many of these apps and keep coming back to paper and pen, can't shake it.

    Thanks Tam, appreciate that. Wasn't aware of that focus on FF/Linux, I really hate those outlines :/ We have a new webby, but will definitely fix for now. Cheers again!

    Definitely on the money there. We have users that try to push neon colors or wildly crazy background images, and usually I just try to talk to them directly. It's definitely a case of them trying to reflect their establishments atmosphere t

    Thanks for the feedback! If we do get to the hundreds/thousands of clients, I still want to have a personal touch. Rather pay someone else to do coding and have me talk to clients being the thought behind it. Regarding the microdata, we hav

    Interesting concept, I like the challenge aspect of it all but wonder if these sort of dares/bets would ever be entered into an app? It seems a bit like overkill, the same way if an app existed that kept track of promises.
