Solid redesign, good work!
I'm enjoying Nicely Done, it's become one of my favourite showcase sites recently.
Refreshing to see 'I raised some money and here's how I'm spending it sensibly'.
Doesn't look fake to me—it's from 2010.
There's some old projects on here! Someone should reach out to Joel Gascoigne to see if he's still interesting in building https://builditwith.me/ideas/551 :)
Hey Guys, big fan of your work.
For the physical products businesses (Peel particularly), what sort of market research did you do and how did you gauge interest prior to placing the first order with the manufacturer? Or rather what did you do to ensure you wouldn't have thousands of phone cases no one wanted!?
I use Bower. Get all of Bootstrap's files and create a new style.less file and import the main bootstrap.less and a copy of the variables.less file (to be able to override the defaults).
style.less will look something like:
@import "../bower_components/bootstrap/less/bootstrap.less"; @import "variables.less"; ...
File structure:
/assets
-- style.less
-- variables.less
/bower_components/...
-- lots of Bower files that you don't edit
This is not too much help unless you're starting from scratch, but good luck!
I've been using https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hackernew/lgoghlndihpmbbgmbpjohilcphbfhddd for a few months.
Adds a couple of nice features over and above being easier to read.
Looking through Ryan Sims portfolio I realised just how much of an influence he has been to my design work. At one time or another I've been inspired by (ripped off) his entire back catalogue of work; Neubix, Pure Volume, Virb and probably now Rdio.
