career.fork(): how to thrive as a freelance developer

Maker

Hi everyone - I've been off the grid today, so just catching up with this. What a nice surprise to find a small side proj on PH's front page ;) @hernas @danielkegel re only three posters? Yeah, I know -- we started with three because a) it's a side project - our daytimes are spent busily making http://www.yunojuno.com for a client b) this are a physical products, so we have up-front costs. Also, small print runs of posters (eg printing just 5, or even printing one on demand) are unsustainably expensive per item - leaving no or even negative profit at that volume - so we had to pick a few designs to test the water and get 50+ of each printed up as a toe in the water. Holding stock, damage, returns, etc - it's all a new experience for me compared to building SaaS products c) I wanted to be sure that every poster we make is 100% 'legit' in terms of usage of the quote. Even the dealings with the Python Software Foundation (which is v friendly and generally awesome) took a fair amount of back-and-forth to ensure everyone was happy, so batting out dozens of poster designs featuring quotes from various sources (all still in copyright or referencing trademarks) on Day 0 wasn't really gonna happen. So, yeah, MVP out the door - see what the water is like, then add more designs. That's the plan.

Cool idea, would love to see quite a bit more posters, the existing three are pretty blah for me. Just a suggestion, why not allow users to submit potential poster text? Allow voting on each, best goes to print.

@braunshizzle Yeah, thanks - it's been on the Trello board for a while to allow people to express an interest in a design which hasn't been printed yet (or is out of stock). We have a 'Suggestion Box' but the link isn't prominent enough - will sort that bit out now.

I actually have a domain registered (foobart.co), through which is supposed to be posters of actual code, maybe filtered and tinkered with. I still haven't gotten around to creating any. That said, I'm not a competitor :D - my posters will contain actual code, not quotes! I immediately went to order a poster from your site but three is too few! Please make more! :)

Hey @ me on Twitter (@dathowitzer) and I'll design a whole lot more for you at a super slim price (as a choice of 3 seems to be the biggest criticism here)
