one question, why should we give opinion to you?

Why does anyone give anyone opinions? Ever heard of altruism?

"Ford already makes cars, give up and quit Mr. Toyoda"...

It must be hard to have an all-pessimistic outlook on life and be so jealous of anyone who tries to create something?

It's a realistic outlook on life mate. You don't come into a forum as a newbie and completely anonymous and ask for a million for a start up that was presented in such an amateur manner and not expect to take a few jabs. Also of note, who in their right mind comes on to any forum asking for a million especially when the average forum user such as those on MSG most likely make less money per year than a Wal Mart greeter. You can call this pessimism, I call it two things realism and good old common sense. I truly wish the OP the best of luck, but I'd also suggest he/she gets their ducks in order and take a different approach to gain venture capital.

At what point did he ask for a million dollars? He simply said it's a million dollar startup. If you had read his story more carefully you would have found he explained he's gone through half his initial investment and is now facing a serious challenge to his original business model, acquiring stock images at a reasonable price.

This is what he is looking for. A co-founder who can help to overcome this hurdle.

He's also asking the contributors/photographers on this forum whether or not his position on the licensing is unreasonable to them so that he can brainstorm a way to create something that contributes not only to DesignBold but the contributors/photographers as well.

Hello big Investor

This is the Anonymous:  http://www.facebook.com/hungstartup

Are you real, too?

Anonymous person on the internet, looking for big investors.



I'm anonymous but real. Also not looking for investors, because I would not do that anonymously. I would do that with my full name, because trustworthiness is one of the most important things for investors. They need to have confidence in you.

Of course, what I'm saying is pretty obvious. But if this is how you handle suggestions and critics, good luck.

You're link doesn't work. You're still anonymous.


If you had read his post more thoroughly you'd find that he wasn't looking for investors so much as the things he clearly stated.

1. This sentence makes it clear to me he is searching for help solving the stock image dilemma:

"I asked myself why I don't try to seek for opinion, support, advice how I should resolve the situation?"

2. This says to me he's interested in a partner that matches the criteria mentioned in his initial post, for an equity option; no investment needed:

is there anyone here would love to join the team as co-founder with equity option?

You must:
- Have access to a few million stock photos
- Have a wide connection with stock contributors
- Have experience and capability to build and grow the contributor program


3. This suggested to me that he's quite a real person, not an anonymous person with the negative connotations you're insinuating.
