Ideas	Voting results and bounty paid	Comments

Bountystorms is all about creative ideas -- why have a rectangular bar like every other site on the net -- make it arc around the top of the user interface or twist around the idea light bulb or something cool... live up to the creative M.O. of the site

Everyone likes different colors and shapes -- why not make it as personal and comfortable to the stormer as possible
Suggested by Eric

I prefer buttons that speak directly to the reader. Instead of "how it works" tell me this is where I "learn to use it." (Also, BountyStorm should look different in the button that includes the name of the site.)
Suggested by Gina

Maybe a panel should be great! To change the password, to choose the alert messages, to set some important preferences.

Expand the nav bar to full page, maybe you can include "people are talking", that at the moment is on the left column, in the nav bar. Or you can put it on the bottom.
Suggested by Alessio

In my opinion a green nav bar shlod be better, whit the blue underline. Maybe because I like green, maybe because green, white and grey are more attractive.
Suggested by Alessio

To begin with, you have done really good job with nav bar. It's simple, colorful, vivacious, but still polished. FB, TW and RSS icons look great too, however I'm not quite sure why only three networks? Where is MySpace, Hulu, ..? There in one horrible thing - background. I know, to make site formal and "I-mean-it-serious" style, white background is the best, but hey .. after some time, it can be boring, maybe even frustrating .. Why don't you use some background colour? Colour a page banner for beginning, or foot, or sth. Give the page some colours!! What do you think?

Make it less clip-art-y.
Suggested by Frank

The whole site looks chaotic, because there too many differences between texts. And I agree with the other idea that the quotes on the left are sort of out of place.
Suggested by Frank

I can almost pinpoint when things have been updated! Something doesn't work right. Claiming Bounties right now isn't working for me. Not sure why, but we just had an updat...hmmm Bootstrapping is a tough thing, but when it leads to quality issues, initiatives will die on the vine as valuable first time customers leave.

Once there are more "BountyStormers," there will be a better selection of ideas and more representative vote of what is best. There should be more features to encourage/reward, if not simply a practical process for, inviting more people to the BountyStorms site.
Suggested by Bella

Find something better to do with the space - maybe a success story excerpt from a news story where BountyStorms.com is credited with some of the success.
Suggested by Nancy

The brainstorming link on the top seems to no longer work. If I were new, I wouldn't necessarily have gone all the way to the bottom. I might have just thought the link was broken moved on.
Suggested by Nancy

add the BountyStorm Twitter RSS to the right-side navigation pane. this will bring some life and fresh content to the site.
Suggested by Troy

give users who submit a project a couple of questions to help the community narrow in on better suggestions like: are you seeking a one word name? a plain english name or an abstract name? are there any words you want to AVOID using? etc.
Suggested by Troy

Home page is too "white" and hard to really take it all in. Right hand side of the page is too busy. Tool bar is better and helpful, but I'd move the twitter, facebook, etc. logos as I don't think they add much to it. Also, how does one correct their posting if they see an error or change their ideas? Should be a 15 minute limit to make edits to your posting. I like the countdown clock on the 12 hour limit. The "no ideas suggested yet" box is too small and not really clear as to how to start with a reply. Also, maybe think about adding a few % points to the first person that posts a suggestion so as to get the ideas flowing faster?

add graphics to the "how it works" section for a more visual explanation.
