I'd rather offer money and the potential to see your designs live in the field.
Daniel Jalkut sums up most of what I'm going to say in [this post](http://www .red-sweater.com/blog/636/graphic-design-hat).
manicwave Productions is my micro-isv focusing on Mac OS X and iPhone applications. My first product Pastie is out on the iTunes App Store and has been picked up by both CNET and [LifeHacker](http://lifehacker.com/5335718/pastie-speeds-up-iphone-email-with- pre+formatted-text).
Pastie has been a lot of fun, from concept through design onto development, marketing and distribution. I'll continue to tweak Pastie, but now that I'm warmed up, I'm moving onto the desktop.
I have a series of related products lined up. I'm cutting code for the first in the series now.
In order to meet my expectations for a great Mac app, I need help. Specifically, I need the efforts of a talented designer to help design the layout, comment on and contribute to the interaction model and provide guidance on all things graphical.
My success in software to date has been centered around pragmatism and self- awareness. In this case, I'm aware of my limitations in the graphical design space. To build the product that I'll be proud of shipping, I need help.
I'm looking for someone to assist manicwave on a part-time contract basis with all matters "graphical". This will include:
Cash. Satisfaction for a job well done. The potential for a long-term working relationship with someone that loves creating great software.
