find a design firm

[chadwhitacre]

We have a CPA and a lawyer. We need a design partner. I think a relationship with a company will be easier than a relationship with an individual freelancer, to avoid the confusion between mercenary and quasi-volunteer to which we, as an open organization, are prone (cf. #298). We want a design mercenary. A hired gun. Clean. Contractual. Transactional.

Let's find the right one!

Here's a pen w/ the list of ALA authors to click through ... http://codepen.io/anon/pen/RGWoEG?editors=1000

[chadwhitacre]

@kzisme I'm starting at the top of that list, wanna start at the bottom when you're outta examples of your own? :-)

[kzisme]

@whit537 Will do

[chadwhitacre]

Sorry, should be fixed?

[chadwhitacre]

Made it through the first 100. Not as many useful links as I would've hoped, maybe 1 in 10?

[kzisme]

Yup! @whit537 Yeah I clicked randomly though for a bit, but mostly they are just individuals or just short intros about designers. 🏄

[kzisme]

I'm going out for a bit! We're at 40 on the list now! 💃

[chadwhitacre]

Made it through 149. If we go in order we can avoid duplication. :-)
