I 100% agree with you that one person is behind two companies. They want to grab the clients with hide there informations. If they mention everything in the begninning of business relationship then I don't think, its any harm BUT they hide. BTY I havent used Elance or any similar type of websites for freelance work but I have seen profiles in these websites. Shandy, good post.

I have a profile there which I use for getting my design work done there, which I have never posted with. Also, you took me way too seriously on the subscription plugin. At the same time, I appreciate the effort, and am now subscribed to a few of your posts. Shandy: Just create a separate profile for Sitepoint.

The problem i have with sitepoint or any other forums is my public appearance. I dont want people to know what I am working on or even catch on to some of my ideas. Typically those who troll those forums are at a higher level. I see no reason to tip people off! Perhaps thats me just being an obsessive compulsive entrepreneur! Hey Hawaii, Skype is my last resort tool. I've picked up a <a href="http://www.shandyking.com/2007/02/05/skype-linksys-cit200-xp/" rel="nofollow">linksys telephone and even blogged about it</a>. I am not thrilled with it as users say I sound funky. I also use a calling card to call India, Asia or Europe when I need to speak with people. Hmmm, I may have to find that plug-in for WP.

I have had some success with the <a href="http://www.sitepoint.com/contests/" rel="nofollow">Sitepoint contests</a>, though. What are your thoughts on those? And where is your 'Subscribe' checkbox so I can subscribe and get emailed when you reply? :P Thanks for the suggestions - I’ve been outsourcing a lot of graphics design, and ran into a few of the same problems.

I am about to start a new project. This is helpful info. Can you post more about Skype? I've heard it mentioned here and there but I need to learn more from people who actually use it. (I don't trust marketing). Thanks! I am about to start a new project. This is helpful info. Can you post more about Skype?
