MenuIs there anywhere I can trade my mobile & web UI/UX design service for web and mobile dev help?
Like most founders, I need the most help in a specific area. I am a mobile & web graphic designer with 12+ years experience willing to trade my design services in exchange for web and mobile dev help. Please contact me if you can help me.

I value your request for help. However, my experience is that a straight barter of design services for development services is not necessarily equitable, as design is most often a fraction of overall development effort and cost, albeit, design is critical and sets the stage for success in a project. At DVmobile, we believe that the first 15% of a project (including design) is what make the remaining 85% of a project successful.
Bartering often implies very low revenue potential in the relationship. It begs for similar circumstances in your partner, a willingness to work for services vs. cash payment.
My recommendation would be for you to attract multiple partners that can leverage your services on a part-time contract basis. If you are attracting customers with your design skills, many development firms, including mine, are willing to do subcontract or partner based work. It’s usually easier to market great design skills in today’s market, than coding skills.
I might be able to assist with this. Happy to do a call and discuss your particular needs. I work a lot of reseller deals like this where I build and pair up teams.

What is the best project management tool for a startup developing and scaling a mobile application?
I tried Basecamp, Jira, Unfuddle, Trello and PivotalTracker before for different projects which were developed with agile approach. All of them worked fine to me and I needed some time to setup my framework and processes there. I think it would be worth checking Trello or PivotalTracker which I personally like more than Basecamp because of better agile oriented structure.DL

What is the best mobile app install tracking solution? By this I mean a solution that truly (or nearly) tracks click to install of app on iOS.
Sure, it's correlative for technical reasons, iTunes / AppStore does not provide (yet, might change) a mechanism for that, so 3rd parties have to build their own. I recently discussed with people from Adjust and I was really impressed. HasOffers / MobileAppTracking seems to be a good choice as well.AJ

Should our photo sharing app use Base64 Strings or Files using URLs to display images?
We have been asked this question before and it really depends on the situation and use case. 1. In depends on many factors. 2. Base64 encoding enlarges file sizes by up to 33% 3. If quality is your focus, I recommend URL/URIs. I would love to hear more about this project and provide some more insight. Let me know if you have any other questions. -SteveSD

I need new developers to finish my app due to problems. What do I need to know from the current app developers so I can advertise for a new company?
Unfortunately, in most cases where a transition occurs between contract developers prior to a shipped product, it's almost *always* the case that the new developer starts the code largely from scratch. When problems dictate a required transition to a new developer, it usually means that the previous developer left enough of a mess (in the codebase) that no good developer would want to try to waste your money and their time cleaning up the mess. Happy to talk with you about your current predicament and offer you advice based on more information.TW
