This is pretty amazing! I love newsletters and see quite a few of my favorites on here already. Your team has done a great job at finding varied and intriguing content. Also love that you include previous issues so people can preview before learning more. Nice work!

Would be nice if you had the option of resizing down to a specific file size as opposed to dimensions. I use GIFs in Mailchimp a lot, which has a 10 MB limit, and find myself trying out various dimensions before I reach an optimal file size.

Been reading The Frank since last July and am a big fan. The writers know their stuff and have a great balance of information, brevity, and entertainment. Highly recommend! π

The Simpsons is my favorite show so this is GOLD.

That said, the landing page is kind of intimidating in that I had no idea what to search first. Might be kind of cool to provide some common searches or popular images so people can get started without being faced with an empty search field.

Whoa nice! I've been compiling a list of similar resources to someday release a stack as well. First thing I noticed was that the resources I've gathered have little to no overlap with yours which just goes to show how many resources around careers and recruiting there really are!

ABOUT TIME. SoundCloud's discovery has always been truly awful but this looks like a step in the right direction. Would be great if you could also have charts for mixtapes/sets in addition to just individual tracks.

Looks nice! Was there a deliberate decision to sort reverse-alphabetically?

@louis_malfoy I love newsletters! Quick questions:
- How do you source the content? Is it 100% human curation or do you also use other tools? Who is doing the curating, just you or do you have a team?
- Would be nice if there was a sample newsletter to check out on the front page. Tried checking out the Archive and Contact pages and they seemed to be blank.

Big fan of email newsletters and I'm looking forward to checking yours out. Might be nice to have a sample so people can know what kind of format to expect, as well as a better description of what type of short stories they are.
Also a minor comment: in the navbar, "Why To Join" sounds awkward.

This is spectacular and I plan to use "Yahtzee!" in my everyday lingo now. Can't wait for the next one!

Love love love. I really enjoy checking out unique music experiences like this, helps break out of the monotony of iTunes/Spotify/SoundCloud boring listening interfaces.

Can't wait to see other sites get a makeover like this. I was surprised to see that the Plenty of Fish page looked like how it does, but perhaps it's a limitation for being bootstrapped for so long. I wonder if it'll get a shiny coat of paint with the recent acquisition by Match.

I like this a lot. A lot of people are turned off by Reddit's current experience, especially the lack of images and the comment section's confusing threads/inside jokes and this appears to address a lot of those issues.
Interesting choice of going no banner ads and using sponsored content instead. Not super impressed with the first sponsored content ad...

These look really neat! Can't wait for the pizza emoji.
Out of curiosity, are there any licensing or legal requirements to use emojis on products? I remember the emoji masks from about a year ago caught a lot of flack on Reddit (though not necessarily the most reliable source of legal advice) in the comments section:...

Have been an early user of the EO1 by Electric Objects and have enjoyed it immensely so I'm excited to see new offerings in the space too. Few questions:
1. The app interface looks like you'll be able to upload your own art but will you be able to share it with other users (for free) or is the art uploaded limited to your own device?
2. Similar to the above, will artists be curated/selected by...
