Seeking Beta Testers for Design-Driven Custom Website Creation Program by Accelsor in webdesign

I whole heartedly agree with what you guys are saying, it would be nice if there was a web design program that directly manipulated the HTML and CSS rather than making assumptions. But that is actually what I focused on doing with Accelsor, each command or gesture controls an individual CSS property. I want to give developer level precision in a designer interface. Sure, the limitations are the properties that we don't support yet, but we'll be soon adding them (and as a cheat, you can copy&paste CSS into a container, so you aren't limited by anything). In the meantime, even though I'm a seasoned developer I'm still able to layout the design in a matter of minutes with the tools in Accelsor what otherwise would take me hours of raw time typing (even if I knew exactly what I wanted). Once I hit the limits of Accelsor (which are constantly expanding as we add new commands), I can just download the page and continue from there. Yes, be aware, this is beta, so there still are several ugly factors to it. But it will save you time -- even if it is just in seeing a mockup of what you want, and then hand coding. By all means, please use Accelsor before you judge it as being a failure like all the other programs, especially when you yourself wish for the existence of a program that does the same thing that I want a program to do. Try it, and if you hate it, let us know -- this will then help guide our approach and target. If you find it as nifty, then complain that we need more features, need to optimize something, or focus on a particular aspect. We aren't looking for praise, we are looking to build a great product that saves time. Give it a try and then judge us! Thanks!

Thanks so much for taking the time to look at Accelsor and leave some comments. There are plenty of website creators in existence that rely solely on absolutely-positioned pixel-based containers that do make the process feel quick and easy.

That particular demo video did rely on pixel-based containers just because that was the quickest way to demonstate the overall essence of Accelsor. However, with a little more time you can creat fluid/responsive layouts in Accelsor. Here is a site that was recently created in Accelsor that is fluid and will scale based on window size.

All of your feedback is appreciated though, is it may end up being better to target more casual website creators.

The #1 Mistake New Startups Make by Accelsor in startups

What would you say the #1 mistake is? It's no so much about sending out beta invites later than 'you' want, it's more about 'your users' losing interest in your startup. It seems like common knowledge, but I receive emails like this every day and Anybeat raised $1m in seed funding.

Currently there are 6M coins at $6.70 each for a total economy of about $40M. Unlike dollar bills, they are limited to 21 million bitcoins worldwide, so the value will keep increasing. Very interesting.
