Tailrank needs a designer

Kevin Burton is looking for a designer who will work for equity to do some UI design for TailRank. If you’re a new designer who’s looking for some professional portfolio work, this might be a good opportunity for you.

Because it not worth anything so it’s not worth paying for? I’m sick of this sort of diminishment of design. If you could do it yourself you would. This isn’t really a contest but a way for you to steal someone else’s good work for free. Or get a bunch of work on spec, which means that a lot of people do a lot of work and then don’t get paid for it. If the design of this site is worth someting to you then you should be will to pay for that value.

No, because at the time Tailrank was unfunded, had little revenues, and needed a designer. Just as developers, advisors, and others (even some law firms and consultants) often work for equity in the early stages of a startup, Tailrank was looking for a designer to do the same.

They weren’t looking for “free” work, they were looking for someone who was willing to work for non-cash compensation.
