I haven’t ask her to rate my file.

Good for you

Asking for rating is never a good idea – unless you already suffer with low rating!

There is a simple solution for this but since this is not already implemented, I doubt if this is feasible:

In the contact form, add a mandatory drop-down that lists all the items of author. Buyer will select the item for which the question is related. Then the email will simply point that item name and the license type if purchased by the buyer. No hassle of 7 day expiry and as well as exactly points about which item the buyer question speaks about – solves 2 issues.

So, its hard to believe that creation of any useful / high demand / bugles plugin can take couple of days/weeks.

Depends on what functionality you are building, it is the idea and its utility – one of my plugin is something very simple (and just $7) but sells more than 20 copies almost every week. Was created in less than 50 hours

Both of you guys are speaking about different plugins. The server end and front end plugins differ in the way of testing and the level of user interaction. Especially when it comes to front end (and visual, interaction targetted), optimizing DOM access, performance and memory management can take forever – with repeating sandwich of design-code-test. You may start the project with one robust hierarchy of element arrangement and end with different hierarchy to achieve performance across multiple browsers / devices.

Seller: Currently ignored the FAQ section 100% as I felt buyers never read both FAQ and help documents. I used it few years back (inserted in description) and that reduced a lot of support headaches.

I think the way the FAQ section provided by Envato few years back was very poor and almost every one started ignoring it. Recently that section improved a lot in terms of usability but I think it is too late to revert back the old buyers to spend time on there.

We can answer each and every question! It works

When it comes to pricing, Envato is completely offtrack to consider how much it costs for a developer to support recent devices as well as how much it contributes for the overall growth. They neither set special prices nor promote latest device friendly categories/items as if they are living in a cave.

Anyway, I would be surprised if they manage hike prices for anything other than WP. When a company believes they can pull customers by Free file of the month and continuous innovations on bundles, we can’t expect certain qualities from them.

The only one bright side of not hiking the price is, it somehow justifies not supporting items!

Why would you need the purchase data again if you already know that the client purchased it? If you need it for your booking then you can ask them for the purchase code and use the Envato API anytime.

I have a good example for this: if you are on vacation with no internet in more than 7 days, when you are back and you check all of your emails through contact form, the purchase data is not valid anymore…

When you comeback from vocation – do you really want attend the old support requests? just kidding!

My bottom line would be that I really love the old logo. Some might argue that it’s because I’m so used to it and it’s difficult for me to accept change.. But I think that isn’t case here. I truly think the old logo looks better. I can’t nail down the exact reason, but perhaps it has something to do with the leaf having two separate parts, and that it looks more corporate and professional opposed to cute and perhaps a little childish as well? Hope I’m not offending anyone, just wanted to share my thoughts

The problem is not that the old logo being good (or something). The new logo’s curves and cuts are inconsistent for today’s users eyes (may appear good under different trend). We used to expect careful lines or edges when it comes to a simple shape. The more simple the object is, it requires more refinement targeting our eyes as well as the object. When the logo become almost a circle – it should be drawn using a circle ( ) otherwise it would be very difficult to please everyone’s eyes. May be the difference between old and new one is just the new one falls under risky style – when it comes to first impression.

Just wondering how it will sit with all those GraphicRiver preview image watermark. 124746 old items needs update?

9.9×6.6 inches!! I’m sold (depending on the price) Travelling with my current 2008 8 core is a pain in the a$%e!

It would be safe if the diameter dominates height (just kidding) – will occupy space though. I would like to have my desktop CPU stand rigidly on one place than seeing it rolling on floor like cylinder by accident!

This could result more efficient, economical cooling system:

^ That’s not due to bundle; as the bundle is for VH and you don’t have any VH item

It’s not that simple.

If we have to go extreme complexities, I would say 3D ocean bundle can result increased sales for TF!

Our focus should be the density of cause and effect – not the area of that!
