today i'm going to color another color, in book illustration and i'll be using, every single color in the largest marker, set, oh my gosh it's like i like to punish, myself for something so i hope you're, ready so let's go, so i'm going to use this flower glass, coloring book by amsterdams again, but first here is miss from last time, if you watch that video you know how, nervous i was to even attempt this but, she came out stunning i'm gonna name her, daphne rosalie i think it just fits her, vibe so well so thank you guys for the, suggestions, and now to look for one for today, so because i'm trying to use every, single marker i want to find, one with loads of flowers in the, background something like this, where you can really color each, individual one, or maybe each of the twists in a, different color, okay so i love this vibe so i'm actually, thinking of doing something quite, different so instead of just coloring, the girl normally and then making a, super colorful background i want to, inject loads of color into our main girl, as well i don't know if you've seen, those portraits that are super super, super colorful so i want maybe like a, yellow orange on this side going over to, a gradient of purples and blues on the, other side i'm going to use this black, test page to figure out my color, placements but before we get into the, coloring a few of my favorites i've also, done similar videos so drawing with, fluffles and super easily and i think in, rin's video she swatched it as she used, this but i don't think i can do that, because i think i would need to know, what swatches are what before i actually, pick the colors you know it's time to, swatch these i think here are all the, markers i've got this on ultrawide, framing because this is what it would, look like normally but to barely get it, all in, my frame is the swatch cards are in here, should i pour it all out or 300 markers, oh my gosh, [Music], i might as well just start trying to, group here, pouring the markers like that was, definitely a mistake because it went, absolutely everywhere when i say under, the table, just all over the place, and i'm just trying to group it roughly, so this is more so like i can work in, sections of color rather than a whole, jumbled up mess, and actually i don't understand why who, don't sell the markers like this already, i feel like i really struggle to see a, wide range of colors when it's just, jumbled up, do you care if your markers and your, color pencils are grouped or is it just, however it comes, oh my gosh we are done that's 25 minutes, i think i've got everything in here off, of the floors now to actually swatch, them, the swatching process was really long, and kind of tedious, but i think it's such an important step, because the colors on the caps don't, necessarily match the actual ink on the, inside so having a swatch and just, having a reference card helps to make, sure that the color you're picking is, really the color you're trying to pick, basically, i am really impressed by the color, coloring but in another breath who needs, these many greens, who needs these many blues who need, these many pinks and purples, for one piece you definitely don't need, these many colors, a lot of them are very similar so if, you're thinking about buying a set like, this i think it's absolutely not, necessary but shout out to who for, sending me these it's a nice wide, variety but, low key unnecessary, so i'm nearing the end i still have some, blank spaces and at this point, it's a mission to try to find one random, color, i'm trying to go through line by line, it's giving where's waldo trying to read, the name off of the card and trying to, find one particular color it is long, so here are all the swatch cards i, managed to find all of the swatches on, these two cards i'm actually quite, surprised about the variety of grays, we've got but i'm nothing like the earth, tones i'm surprised at the number of, rounds we've got as well actually on, these two bro i'm missing three of the, swatches and at this point i can't die, looking for these markers, i tried in it the markers also have this, new design with this you know cut out, which i think is pretty cute comparing, it to the older ones this is the brush, tip marker and this is another chisel, tip but here is what each marker looks, like, chisel tip on one side and the lip nip, on the other and now it is coloring time, so i'm thinking if i use the yellows, on the right side of her face and i can, go from like lighter to darker then on, the transition we want to use orange and, then from orange i want to go to like, the purples this is a bit of like a, harsh lighting, and then we'll have some like i know, it's looking a mess, i would say trust me but i don't even, know if i trust me let's be real and, then we can have like the sharp reds, and this, corner and then the hair, i'm going to pick a slightly lighter, yellow, can have like the highlights of yellow, coming on this side, and then we can pick some of the earth, tone to blend out the hair but the idea, is the hair is meant to be quite dark so, it will build up to, a really dark color i think on this side, i want to bring in some of the, highlights so we'll have some blues, greens so the hair will still be this, dark color you just have, like the highlights and the glows from, these other colors and the point is to, use different variations and different, shades of these colors to hopefully, blend into each other i don't want to, use color and pencils for this piece, because it is like a marker, challenge, i can bring in some purples, i don't know i don't know it's looking a, mess and then what i had in my mind was, yellow to red to pink going down here, and then blue to purple maybe green to, blue to purple going here and so i cover, the entire rainbow so i'm just gonna, quickly mark, where the main colors will go oh my gosh, where the gray's gonna go in her clothes, in her clothes but the thing is it can't, just be great it needs to be like super, colorful as well some of it will have to, go in her hair, oh my gosh this is gonna be so difficult, um yeah i don't even have the energy to, look at the swatches if i'm gonna be, real just got too much to do i don't, know how we're gonna use all of those, grays for the leaves i could start with, like lighter greens up here, and then go to like midtone greens in, the middle, where i'm coloring this is so higgy and, haggard so keep greens on this side but, more earthy greens, on this side since we got to opie tones, okay so the great thing about this, tester page is that i can play around, with things and decide what i want to, move forward with so i haven't colored, in the background yet maybe the gray can, be the background since there'll be so, much color i think that's actually a, great idea so i'll start with the, background and then see how i'm feeling, for the skin so what i'm going to do so, that you know and believe i am using, every single color is that i've got this, completely in frame so you can see me, actually going through so i really want, to work through a whole section and then, move on so i'll put them in here and, then put them back before i continue, i'm going to use this little key on the, bottom left to tick off when i've done a, whole section, [Music], i'm starting with the yellows and kind, of easing into the oranges and hopefully, in the end it'll form a nice blend, but from that tester page you can, already see that i have an idea of what, i want but i don't have a clear, direction everything is still kind of up, in the air, if you watched my daiso dollar store, video i was explaining about how i kind, of had art block recently and i think, doing challenges like this really helps, because firstly i'm doing it in a, coloring book so, i don't have to worry about making a, super accurate sketch or a nice, illustration, but also having the challenge of using, every single marker color has really, expanded what the outcome can look like, but also that kind of restriction just, really brings out creativity so i'm, excited to try this even if i'm very, nervous, i don't really think it'll get this deep, i need a second pot, a midway check-in, i'm quite surprised that i basically, used all of the yellows and oranges from, here and i've not covered that much so, all of a sudden this challenge feels, doable, [Music], continuing on to the reds and the pinks, i'm not really trying to be accurate by, what exactly each flower is i don't know, my flowers anyway, so if something is meant to be blue, enough coloring in pink i'm sorry in it, but for the most part i'm trying to use, one or two colors for the base and then, adding in detail with so much the deeper, tones for each color, i also tried to change up the camera, view so you're not just looking at the, same thing top down but best believe i'm, still doing the same thing of taking the, marker from the left and then putting it, in the cups on the right when i'm done, with it, so i am nearly done with the first, section the yellows oranges to red and, pinks i really like how this is turned, out actually i think i'm missing some, oranges and reds so i'd like to move on, to the next section so i'm gonna put, these back and the ones i didn't use, from this section i'm gonna keep them, here, i think i'll need them more for the, neutral bit so they can stay here, okay, so time to move on to the reds and, purples, in each color section i'm really trying, to get a wide range of values so i've, got some, darker reds and i'm adding some darker, purples but i'm also trying to get some, light values as well because, if you look at the marker set i've got a, lot of pastely kind of colours as well, like the really light pinks and the, lilacs, so this will be a good place to add that, [Music], and i think next to this section i'll, probably do the neutrals so i'm also, trying to edge into some of the more, mauve colors so this feels like a good, place for these colors, i've got these purples remaining and i, think they'll be good and used with, these later so i'm gonna add them to, this section and i'm gonna move on to, this section, [Music], and now it's time for the greens, so green is not one of my favorite, colors in life i don't know why i just, i'm not a big fan however sometimes i, see the vision there's some shades of, green that i'm like oh okay i hear that, but for this piece i'm not really trying, to do green flowers really because green, is going to be used all over the piece, for the leaves, and like i said on the tester page i can, go from like lighter greens at the top, and then going deeper as i go down the, page, and i could also do more of the you know, khaki and the foresty kind of greens is, that the right word i don't know but i, can do more of those with the neutral, flower colors so i'm not really trying, to do green flowers in this step i just, want to have some sort of a link between, the yellow on the top right and then the, blues in the top left, at this point i still have loads of, blues to go so i'm going to use some of, these extra colors just to add some, shading add some details really expand, the values for each of the flowers, [Music], the blues are more or less done i've, left spaces for the leaves that i'll, come back to and the final thing i want, to do is i want the bottom left section, to be neutrals, so i want to do this palish faded kind, of purple and maybe use that as a buffer, to get to the neutral section, yeah i'm not really sure about that, though, okay so i am done with all of my blues, and purples and i'm really really liking, it i'm gonna leave the greens till last, to go around where i've got all the, colors so i'm just going to bring these, that i haven't used out and i will put, them on this side, and then i'm going to put these that i, have used back in place, i think i'm now going gonna do the, browns, this is probably the riskiest part of, this whole coloring process actually, coloring the girl is gonna be a mess, with the colorful idea i have but i have, so many neutrals i've got this entire, top left section of neutrals and i had, to google some different color flowers i, found some brown flowers that are quite, nice so i'm thinking of doing the big, focal point flower there in brown, and then using some of the other browns, to add some details, it's obviously a bit of a risk because, brown flowers to me gives the flowers, are dead, like you barely kept it alive, but it also could turn out so nice so, without reference this is kind of hard, but i'm just trying to use the different, colors to add some detail and to add, some blending and i'm not going to lie, to you i am liking how this is looking, [Music], and now i've managed to use most of the, neutrals i'm quite shocked, but the remaining browns i'm just using, it we've got some small small flowers in, the bottom left, and i'm just using it to just quickly, one or two lines each because, i can't see where else it can go to be, honest, [Music], so, done with the browns and i actually love, how this big brown flower tender now the, last section i have not touched is this, gray section everything else has been, used can you believe it okay so i'm, going to return the earth tone skin, tones whatever back to this section, then i'm going to do the greens, this is probably the easiest part of, this entire video because there's so, many leaves on the page there's so many, different shades of green i can use one, for the base and i can use another one, to add some detail to add shading add, dots the different flowers almost demand, for a different shade of green in the, first place as well, [Music], so this is quite an exciting stage and i, actually think it just helps to tie the, entire piece together now it's becoming, one piece it's looking quite cohesive, and i am loving this floral background, okay so greens are done and i actually, love how this is looking so this is the, last section of barely tied i'm going to, put them out here so that i remember, that i still need to use them and turn, the rest of it to a trifle spot, the next day a girl is tired it has to, get done today so, i've got my grey markers these are the, ones i haven't touched yet i'm going to, use those but before i work on the, background i'm going to work on the, colorful face that we practiced over, here that was a bit of a haggard mess, we're going to try that again but, hopefully be a bit nicer let's go, i'm so surprised that we've used nearly, every color in this final set the only, colors we haven't used there are those, grays that you see out in the parts, and it's crazy because when i thought, about doing this challenge in the first, place i just fought on an a4 piece tell, me are you crazy, and lo and behold we've been able to use, every single color and it's not even, just one swipe once i've been coloring, actual flowers and actual shapes with, each and every single color i'm just, happy that we're near the end and now, for the face this is definitely the most, nerve-wracking part, i was initially considering only using, all of the colors on the background and, then making her look quite natural but i, just thought the point of this challenge, is for me to challenge myself, so this is the perfect kind of piece to, try a dynamic lighting and there's a big, risk that it just wouldn't turn out nice, but honestly and i say this in every, single coloring page this is just a fun, video if it turns out higginha good okay, we'll learn from it and next time it'll, be even better so i started with the, fiery right side so the yellows and the, oranges, and then i've gone into the cooler, warmer colors i'm not really sure how to, combine it in the middle of her face but, i'm definitely liking how it's turning, out and i'm using some of the, fluorescent colors in this set, and i think it just makes her look so, vibrant and it pops greatly, [Music], next for her hair i'm just going to, apply what i want the highlight colors, to be, so i've started with yellow to orange, and red on the right side and then blue, to green and maybe purples on the left, side this is where i'm completely going, in blind, because, i actually have no idea how this will, turn out i'm kind of just following the, flow of the hair and hoping for the best, now i'm adding in some browns and i, actually want her hair color, to be very dark the purpose of all of, these light colors is just because i, have to worry about how i'm applying the, markers because i'm not going to use, color and pencils over the top bright, highlight colors need to show through, after i do the dark colors i really hope, that makes sense so i'm working slowly, down to the darker colors, and now it's looking colorful some may, say chaotic but i say dynamic, and so i'm finally reaching out for some, of these grays that i haven't used for, the piece yet just to try to mute the, colors a little bit, still adding some of the actual colors, because i want to keep the colors there, but now i can slightly go darker and, darker with the hair, [Music], i am loving how this is looking i think, the hint of color in the hair is exactly, what i was going for, just gonna finish off our lady and the, skin, and then we can move on to the, background just gonna quickly washi tape, [Music], picking this background color wasn't, easy and i ended up cutting this out but, i tried a few different grays on the, actual peas and i wanted something that, was light enough so that it wasn't, distracting but i actually wish i went, darker for the background, but it is what it is i'm not too mad at, this medium gray that i settled on, and now the background is done the final, thing i need to do to complete this, challenge is to finish the grazed art in, these pots, so my idea behind this is just to use it, for some shadowing and some blending in, the hair but also for some detail in, some of these flowers, so some of these grays should form nice, subtle changes in tone which can really, help so if you have a smaller set and, you have a couple of grays, adding gray to your color can just help, to make a slightly darker version of, that color, and oh my gosh the pot is finally empty, the final thing in here is a colorless, blender there's not much i can do with, this so i don't think it really counts, but we are done okay the final thing i, need to do for the actual piece is for, the top i was initially just going to, use the grays to keep it kind of neutral, but i think it needs to be somewhat, colorful so i'm just going to add hints, of color and then we can call it a day, using every single marking the largest, set challenge accepted and completed i, added some more details and shading off, camera but here is what the completed, piece is looking like i love that i, really challenged myself with this one, to make her colorful and all dynamic and, all of that and i really like how it, turned out let me know what we should, name her down in the comments and i'm, sure you'll love my other coloring book, videos next
Launch HN: Payload (YC S22) – Headless CMS for DevelopersHey HN, my name is James and I founded Payload (https://payloadcms.com/) with two close colleagues, Dan and Elliot. We're a dev-first headless CMS [1] that's half app framework and half CMS—we're closing the gap between the two. You can check out our demo here: https://demo.payloadcms.com.
Imagine you're going to build a new SaaS app. Would you think of building it on a headless CMS? Probably not. To devs, "content management system" is usually a swear word. If a team of engineers gets assigned a CMS project, it's less than thrilling. Engineers want to avoid roadblocks, write code, and build things they're proud of—but existing CMS's get in the way of that left and right with their third-party integrations, point-and-click schema designers, code generation, etc.
Rather, you'd build your backend on an app framework like Django, Laravel, etc., for good reasons: ownership over the backend, better access control, customizable auth patterns, etc. Typically, headless CMS are super limiting; you'll end up fighting the platform more than having it help. But, with app frameworks, you're often left to roll your own admin UI, and that takes time. Not to mention building CRUD UI gets old quick after you do it a few times.
That’s where a headless CMS could shine, because they instantly give you admin UI that non-technical teams can use to manage digital products. That saves a ton of UI dev time— but without an extensible API, headless CMS's are far too limiting. They're designed for marketing teams, which usually only need the generic basics: log in, create a draft, preview the draft, publish the content. Go back and update some pages. Define editor roles and localize content. If you need more than that, you'll soon be out of luck.
Payload is different because we treat developers as first-class citizens. We provide the best of both ends: a powerful and extensible API and a fully customizable admin UI out-of-the-box. All with a developer experience that we obsess over, because we want it ourselves.
Payload is code-first, which allows us to get a lot of things right. We give you what you need, then step back and let you build what you want in TypeScript. You'll understand how your CMS works because you will have written it exactly how you want it. Version control your schema and use your own Express server. Completely control the Admin panel by using your own React components. Swap out fields or even entire views with ease. Use your data however and wherever you need thanks to auto-generated, yet fully extensible REST, GraphQL, and Local Node APIs.
Since it uses your own Express server, you can open up your own endpoints alongside what Payload does. In fact, you can extend just about everything that Payload does. It's MIT and open-source, fully self-hosted, comes with GraphQL and REST APIs, and completely customizable.
We realized the need for Payload while we were building the corporate website for Klarna. The Klarna engineers we were working with were among the best in the world, and while they evaluated headless CMS options, they saw restrictions in how all of the normal contenders "black-box" away the API. They wanted to build their CMS, deploy it on their own infrastructure, and truly "own" their CMS. They fell back to using WordPress. When that happened, Klarna inadvertently shined a spotlight on the CMS market and pointed out a significant void in proper code-based, developer-first CMS. There was no one to give them the developer experience they needed. That's what got us started working on this.
It might seem like a CMS is just a wrapper around a database with a nice UI to show different field types—but in reality, it's a lot more complex than that. We obsessed for years around how to build a proper API that minimizes breaking changes, but still exposes a simple way to extend everything. When you start to introduce things like field-based access control, field-based conditional logic, localization, versions, drafts, and autosave, the task becomes a lot more daunting. Doing it right requires a significant development investment—especially if you want it to perform at scale in addition to removing roadblocks at dev time.
It seems like every day, a new headless CMS pops up. But when you filter down to those that are completely self-hosted, the options quickly dwindle. And then when you remove the confused point-and-click "no-code" (argh!) GUI nature of the existing options, the options narrow to one: Payload.
Our users have built quite a diverse set of apps on Payload. We've seen a virtual events platform, a broadcast platform, SaaS apps of all shapes and sizes, video games, and an Uber-like snow plow service! There are over 1,000 projects in production as of last week, and we can't wait to see more.
Open source has been incredibly helpful. We've gotten significant PRs and our community has gone above and beyond in their contributions. We did not anticipate the level of skill and involvement that we are seeing daily from our community.
Our business model is based on two things:
1. Enterprise features like SSO, audit logs, publication workflows, and translation workflows. Of course, as Payload is open-source, you can build these functions yourself, but enterprises are opting to pay for our official functionality and SLAs rather than rolling it themselves.
2. Cloud hosting. Now that Payload 1.0 is released and ready for production after more than two years of development and dogfooding, we've shifted focus to building a deployment platform for Payload that will deliver permanent file storage, database, API layer, and CI. It will be the easiest way to deploy Payload, but not mandatory to use—much like the NextJS and Vercel model.
You can get started in one line by running `npx create-payload-app` or you can try out our public demo at https://demo.payloadcms.com. The code for the demo is at https://github.com/payloadcms/public-demo.
We would love to hear your feedback. If we don't have something, we'll build it. If there's a sticky spot in the DX (developer experience), we’ll fix it. Looking forward to hearing what you think—and thank you!
[1] Quick refresher: CMS stands for "content management system" and headless just means API-based, with no restrictions over where you use the content on the frontend..
,Launch HN: GoLinks (YC W19) – Internal short links for teamsHello HN!
We’re Jorge, Kevin and Sean and we’re building GoLinks (https://www.golinks.io).
GoLinks is a platform that allows you to easily manage and share links by letting teams create a short link for any internal URL within a company. These links are easy to remember and share, so you don't have to bookmark or copy and paste them in emails.
Each day we use and share hundreds of links to get our jobs done, without considering how long it takes to access and share these resources. It’s one reason why many of us leave tabs open in our browser: we don’t want to spend the 5 to 10 steps to navigate back to that important page. With GoLinks, you’ll be able to deep-link directly into any application with just a simple keyword entered into your address bar. This allows links to be conversational. For example, one employee can create the keyword “go/review” to point to the annual review page in Workday. Later in a meeting, that employee can mention, “Remember to visit go/review to fill out your annual reviews!” Now anyone in that meeting can remember and access the link “go/review”, without digging through their email or Slack.
Golink systems are commonly used in many big tech companies such as Google, Linkedin, Twitter and Airbnb, built by internal tools engineers in those companies. These systems have become an integral part of the way tech companies share internal links.
When we started our careers in tech, we would often visit each other for lunch at these tech companies and we began to notice the same go/links everywhere. In the hallways, cafes, break rooms, posters. fliers and TVs, there would be these keywords prefixed with “go/” that allowed employees to quickly access information on their devices. The employee could enter a shortened URL like go/food into their mobile browser, or desktop, and could access the lunch menu for that day. An easy and simple concept, but an extremely powerful method for internal communication.
Although these systems are ubiquitous in large tech companies, we noticed there was nothing on the market that catered to startups, midsize, or non-tech companies. Companies usually don’t have the time or the resources to build sophisticated internal tools, so we set out to create GoLinks as a Service.
The challenge was building an internal tool for companies that may not have any internal infrastructure. For example, large tech companies have infrastructure so when you connect to the company Wifi or access the VPN, you can access the internal company network. This allows users to access the “go” domain on the network, which resolves the deep link redirection. For smaller and midsize companies, employees might be 100% remote or working in a coworking space, or maybe the company never got around to setting up an intranet. We had to build a product that did not rely on assuming internal infrastructure.
We were able to replicate the functionality of an internal network, and the simplicity of a short-link redirect system, by creating browser extensions for each of the popular browsers. The extension would proxy the “go” domain to our server and we authenticate and redirect the user to the correct location. Now coworkers can be on any network and any wifi, and as long as they authenticate in their current browser, we can find their company’s internal links.
We are startup-friendly—anyone under 10 users can get started completely free—but our main initial focus is on enterprise clients.
If you’ve ever used our GoLinks or any company's golink system, let us know how it’s changed your daily workflow. Thanks for reading. We appreciate your ideas and feedback!.
,Tell HN: A private library in SF that could double as a hackerspaceIf you think coffee shops are too loud and coworking spaces are too expensive, you might appreciate this hack. I discovered it by accident while search for 'wood paneling' on Yelp. :-)
The Mechanic's Institute, near the corner of Post and Market, is a non-profit private library and chess club, and membership only costs $100 per year. That's considerably better than the $300 a month charged by the least expensive coworking spaces! It's also, in my humble opinion, a much more beautiful workspace. The building has tall ceilings and windows, large columns, wood-paneled study rooms, plush leather chairs, and large desks with power outlets. The wifi is also fast and reliable.
The reviews on the library's Yelp page will give you a good sense of what it's like:
http://www.yelp.com/biz/mechanics-institute-library-and-chess-room-san-francisco
I hope to see you here! It would be great to make this a well-known hacker outpost in downtown SF. Perhaps we could even organize a daily lunch or afternoon tea. Here's a chat room where we can coordinate:

,Ask HN: Website Idea, Online resumes done righttl;dr: Your online resume.
Backstory: August of last year, after a year and a half from my last startup closing down, I decided it was time to get back to work. The time had been spent with my family, and watching my son in his first year. It was a good time. But getting back to work would mean getting a job, and at the time, I was more concerned about a solid pay check. Obviously, in this economic climate, it was a bit scary, but I had ample experience and was confident I could land a job. I went to work. I had to create a resume, and then get it up online. I bought the domain name, and put it up there. Spent quite a bit of time getting it right. In the end, this is what allow my current employer to find me. A search on Google came up with my resume as the first result, provided the proper contact information, and made it easy for them to get in contact with me. After interviews and negotiations, I got the job.
My brother is in a situation like this as well. He's part of the inspiration for this project. The idea is that I had to spend time putting together the website, the design, even as simple as it was, and making sure it got up on the search engines. None of this was difficult for me to do, but for someone like my brother, he doesn't even realize it's something he should do. A resume on Monster.com isn't geared toward the masses and SEO. It's geared toward Monster.com searching.
Since leaving school, I've gotten all my jobs because someone knew me somehow and recommended me in some capacity. Of those, 3 of them also included what I did online. One, in fact, included me walking into the interview with a stack an inch thick of what the interviewer had found online about me.
The reality is, most people get jobs through word of mouth. Someone knows someone, or their is some common ground. At least the good jobs.
So, the idea for the site is bred from some simple ideas:
1. It's good to have a website dedicated to your resume. To promoting yourself. You want a search result with your name to return your resume, your own personal advertisement, rather than some random Facebook page.
2. You want to always be promoting yourself. The job market has changed, and you want to be out there. If someone is interested in searching for you, you don't want them to have to go searching for more information. You want that information to be easily found.
3. Most people don't have the time or energy to invest in creating an highly optimized online resume. Couple this with the cost of having to buy hosting, and the price can get a bit high just for a place to put an online resume.
4. People need jobs. In the current market, job hunting has become even more important. People are becoming aware that it's important to always be prepared to find a job. If you aren't actively pursuing a better job, you're hurting yourself.
5. For far too long, job hunting has been employer-centric. Advertise a job, receive resumes. People are coming to accept that advertising their own skills is becoming important. Social networks are, in a way, teaching people to put their lives online in an orderly fashion; a personal resume.
6. Employers focus too much on accepting resumes instead of getting what they want. It's difficult for employers to find people with the skills they need on their own, without going through an agency. Even then, it's still focused on hiring unemployed people or people that are actively looking.
These are pretty broad ideas, but rather simple. They describe the problems, the issues at hand. The service seeks to solve these problems in various ways, to service not only the potential employees, but the employers as well.
1. Simple to use. The site is focused on providing an efficient, professional resume. You fill in the blanks. The goal is to be fast, painless, and get up something good, quick.
2. The service is meant to be long term. Year-long terms here. The idea goal is for the resume to be a 'living resume.' It updates itself, or you update it, with the current status. It's smart. A year goes by, and 5 years of experience becomes 6, for example. You are encouraged to update.
3. Everything is optimized. The page itself is optimized for search engines. The design will be optimized for easy viewing. Easy printing. Easy sharing. SEO will not just be on the resume itself, but also for searching. Need a Rails Developers in Atlanta Georgia? We'll make that easy to find.
4. You're always promoting yourself. The goal is to make a search for your name appear at or near the top of the search result. This is, after all, your page with your professional information.
5. No ads. I mean, the entire site is basically an advertisement, each page for a particular person, if you want to get technical, but no flashing banner ads, text ads, etc.
6. Low cost. Pay a yearly fee, something reasonable.
There is a lot of potential for expanding the services offered. Being able to put up a portfolio would be important. Pictures of yourself if you wanted. Customization through CSS.
Standards would be important. Exporting contact information as well as the resume itself. All the data would be used and indexed on. Searching and pages could be made on anything.
Anyway's, that's a brief overview of the idea. There are tons of other specifics, and other ideas, as well as ways to go about marketing it and getting users. My questions are simple:
1. Would you pay for a service like this?
2. Do you know others that would pay for a service like this?
3. Have you ever built an online resume/portfolio?
4. Would this service benefit professionals in industries outside web developers?
5. Would businesses outside web-based/focused companies use such a means to find employers?
I'm sure there are other questions, I'll have, and frankly, you don't need to answer these questions point by point. Just wanted to give you an idea of some of the initial questions I might have. Any input at all is encouraged.
As a final point, I've searched online for a service like this, and while I've found a few that promote the same basic thing, I haven't found anything that really capture what I would want in a service. In tech-terms: a Web 2.0 Online Resume site.
I've put a lot of thought into this, played around with some initial designs, hacked up some code, but at this stage, I'm more eager to gain some initial feedback before investing heavily into this idea. So, have at it.
And thanks for reading..

Just got a small set of Polychromos pencils so I tested them on this alcohol marker coloring page that I did. I only had so much skin tones so I went deeper for the colors. Would appreciate any advice on rendering skin with pencils + markers. 0
