Came up against this http://i.imgur.com/DKHNnD5.png

I think it's a good idea however I suspect you're up against the very popular and local buy/sell/swap groups on facebook. Plus there's craigslist and gumtree.

Not to say there isn't room in the market for another such offering. Good luck with it but I would say it's not immediately obvious what those front page blocks represent.

UPDATE:

1. Error popups fixed.

2. Attempted to fix tile overlapping problem by adding in a font-loaded event listener that does a tile re-layout when triggered. Apparently, asynchronously loading fonts can cause the overlapping problem. Hard to replicate. Hopefully we don't see this again.

3. Coming up with new layout for the home page to better describe what is going on.

Thank you for the screenshot of the bugs. Very helpful!

The stacked tiles is a major bug that has been tough to fix.

Email error is new and I will fix that right now.

I will attempt to make the tiles on the home page more obvious as to their function. Totally agree with you.

Thanks so much for the valuable feedback.
