Will it ever be possible to import my Svpply feed and distribute those into collections? It'd also be nice if there were some grid presets for creating a new collection, since how someone organizes/presents their set has a lot to do with whether or not someone clicks on it.

We're actually working on tools for collection templates right now - not sure about an exact release date yet.

The svpply idea is interesting. We hadn't considered that! Thank you for the suggestion.

Thanks for the reply - those would both be really helpful!

Actually another question -- my boyfriend (http://www.lastplacefootwear.com) is currently trying to get a feel for what designs of his people are into before he sets out to spend money on production. Right now we're just building a voting-type system into his site, but is there any likelihood that your platform could assist in helping people determine market interest of their wares or will it always purely be for products that are already on shelves?

We're still in the early stages of product development, and all of our designers are hand picked. So we work with the designers we do have on board to give them insight in to how people are using the platform (what people are looking at, what people are sharing, etc...)

Outside of that, we don't have plans to expand to offer those tools to third parties.
