I’m sure if you are a designer or developer you’ve heard of Envato - the company behind massively successful sites like FlashDen or PSDTUTS and NETTUTS.

FlashDen - an open marketplace where you can sell and buy Flash components - has been around for about 2 years and they recently launched AudioJungle which is just like FlashDen but for audio. Hey, why stop there?

They are launching a brand new website soon called Theme Forest and it’s in beta right now. Huge thanks to Collis we have 250 beta invites to give away! :) [Click here to read more →]

Freelance Folder Turns One - Let’s Celebrate This With A Contest (Our Very First)

Posted July 23, 2008 in News 29 Rockin' Comments »

Yes, today is our birthday! I launched Freelance Folder on July 23rd 2007, exactly a year ago. Wow, a year already! Crazy huh?

A lot of things have changed since I launched this little side project! Well, it didn’t took me long to realize that was going to be more than just a side project! ‘Working on Freelance Folder” quickly climbed all the way to the top of my everyday to-do list. :)

What Happened In The Last Year?

In the last year Freelance Folder went through 4 (or was it 5?) redesigns, we published over 300 posts written by freelancers from all over the world, and have been featured on tons of websites and blogs from LifeHacker and LifeHack to FreelanceSwitch and even ABC News.

Needless to say that the last year has been awesome! So I thought we could celebrate this with a contest! I’m sure you won’t mind. Drinks are on me! [Click here to read more →]
