How do you reckon that people should respond to pitches? Comment system?
olafghanizadeh
on 1 Jan 2018
I had just envisioned an 'upvote' system... But I think comments could make sense too.
owocki
on 1 Jan 2018
I think comments would be good to make more counstructive feedback than just upvotes.
Maybe Isso can be easily implemented with current stack?

@olafghanizadeh you still working on the design for this?
i nkow you were DMing me about working on something else.. maybe most fair to release this claim if youre not into it anymore?
owocki
on 11 Jan 2018
Yeah. I I'm still working on it. I just got a little carried away with the other project.
olafghanizadeh
on 11 Jan 2018
got it; so you still want this bounty? (no pressure, im just tryiing to figure out if we should bring someone else on)
owocki
on 11 Jan 2018
Sorry, yeah I will. Running a little behind schedule here, but will definitely submit a mockup today
olafghanizadeh
on 14 Jan 2018
looking forward :)
owocki
on 15 Jan 2018
hey @olafghanizadeh hows that mockup coming
owocki
on 15 Jan 2018
Okay, running a little behind here. Having some issues with getting this drawn down. But okay, please give me input on desired changes!
The Pitches Page
Here it would show the most recent, most upvoted, featured (selectable by admin) pitches. I think this would be a good approach rather than just a list as the popular projects can be highlighted. I'm not 100% on the colours but it would be cool to make them contextual so that they represent a "state".
The form I'm not sure if should be on a separate page or stay in a modal? Any input here?

@pixelantdesign might have some comments on this.

I'm okay with ideas/new being in a modal or on a new page. Up to you.
Excited to see more progress on this soon!
owocki
on 16 Jan 2018
I vote it on being on the same page! -> Is it worth the extra click ?
Also would only top ideas be displayed or will there also be a list below it to showcase the lesser popular ideas or newly added questions ? (with the voting system like stackoverflow )

@olafghanizadeh do you think you can turn this around in the next couple days?
owocki
on 19 Jan 2018
I will try. Does anyone have any feedback other than what is already posted?
olafghanizadeh
on 20 Jan 2018
I'm a numbers guy so I think it would make sense to have numbers next to Most Upvoted and Most Comments. Something like
Most Upvoted (1.1K)
and
Most Comments (239)
Downside is that if people want to game the system you are giving them targets they need to hit to achieve that (which is why Reddit fuzzes their vote counts, they may have recently changed this tho?). Upside shows how active the community is and provides a bit of info to people looking to join... I think upsides outweight the downsides 馃憤

It seems like this is the sort of thing a Trello board was born to do.
That's the solution that I'd want to look into; make a Trello development board, and either integrate it seamlessly into the page, (hard) just link to it (easy), or do the latter while developing the former.

@owocki thoughts on @razordaze approach for an MVP? I think this could make sense (do the latter while developing the former)

i kind of feel like we've already tested / validated the idea over at https://github.com/gitcoinco/skunkworks/issues/ so i don't see much earned value in going the trello route.

Hi @sethmcleod how's working going here? cc @owocki

Here is a design for the form (I'll also mock a modal version).
Went with a simple input field design. I'm willing to mock input states like hover or error; currently you can just see the focus state (blue outline). I'm assuming the title and description fields will have some character count limit so I included that.
Let me know if you'd like to see anything else here. Feedback is welcome!
sethmcleod
on 15 Feb 2018
Here is a concept for the list view along with a version of the form page as a modal. I won't be able to get to the second page (idea view) until tomorrow, but feedback is welcome for everything so far!
sethmcleod
on 15 Feb 2018
Hey team. I'm sure you're all still busy with ETHDenver but I'd love some feedback on what's done so far whenever there is a chance. Cheers!

@sethmcleod big fan of the modal design, It's clean and neat 鉂わ笍
In the list ideas page -> something seems off in the color -> (the purple maybe or it could be just me)
We'd need an upvote idea added in too!!
stackoverflow / medium (might be an overkill with the clap ) / reddit.
Roping in the big gun /cc: @PixelantDesign
thelostone-mc
on 18 Feb 2018
Thank you for the feedback!
We'd need an upvote idea added in too!!
The pink arrows in the bottom right corner represent upvotes (and would be a button) and the speech bubble icon below it represents comments. Do you think it's too subtle?
I went with an open source icon set called Vicons to match the outline theme most of the graphics have.
sethmcleod
on 18 Feb 2018
@sethmcleod that reminded me of a warning sign ! I meant to ask what that was :P
I fell victim to the Law of defaults, I just assumed the upvote would be on the left ! My bad
Even if we did change the color -> I think it might be to subtle, the icon reminded me of the traffic sign
thelostone-mc
on 19 Feb 2018
Thanks for the feedback! With that in mind here's a version that uses a heart instead of an arrow. I think it fits a lot better, especially if we stick with that brand color.
If the pink color is too much we could make it so that's the active state, whenever the idea has been upvoted, and by default the icon and text are dark gray.
I should have a concept for the second page (idea view) up today.
sethmcleod
on 19 Feb 2018
Yup this is a definite improvement !! The color makes sense with the change in icon

I'd love too @owocki but I keep getting this error, no matter what gwei I try:
I noticed the gas limit hasn't changed at all since I first attempted to submit; maybe that's related?
sethmcleod

@sethmcleod
looking great!
- Do the green and orange tags function as buttons as well?
- What font are you using for body copy?
- Would it be possible to put the favorite and comment side by side (base align with submitter).
- Could you update submit button to be a pill?
Feel free to hit me up on slack if you have any questions.
Thanks!

@PixelantDesign
- Yes I was thinking those would be buttons that filter the results based on the selected tag, assuming that functionality is already available.
- Source Sans Pro
- Definitely! I tried that and I believe it looks best with the favorite on the right.
- By that do you mean fully rounded corners on all buttons?

IMHO the non-pill version looks better ! 馃槄
