Great playground guys! I'm curious what's the focus of your marketplace? UI elements, icons, themes (which kind of? HTML, WordPres ... Etc.)
Max Lind
@tonybuiwr Currently, we encourage items in the following categories: - Books & Courses - Icons - Fonts - Mockups - Themes - UI Kits - Wireframes

@maxlind Congrads on expansion! With the Web Components native standard getting adapted, any plans on adding custom elements category? Or, specifically Polymer, X-Tag elements?
Max Lind
@didelico we're definitely open to expanding the categories based on both what the buyers want, and what the sellers want to sell. :) If you have specific thoughts/feedback, feel free to send me an email: max@designernews.co

We're excited to announce The Designer News Market. It’s a place for the world’s best designers to buy and sell their best creations to other designers. Whether it’s icons, themes, UI kits—you name it, you can sell it in the Market. We’re just getting started, and we’re excited to see how the Market evolves. We’d love to hear any feedback you guys have about what sorts of items you’d like to see less or more of, what’s missing, or any other feedback. We think that the market is going to be a great way for Designer News to become even more independent while benefitting the community and helping independent designers make some extra cash. Best of all, it’s by the community, for the community.

I love DN but don't understand how market place is different from the many others that exist? Why use DN market over Creative Market?
Max Lind
@baldajan We think that the market is going to be a great way for Designer News to become even more independent from traditional advertising and sponsorships while benefitting the community and helping independent designers make some extra cash. Ends up being a great way for DN, the seller, and the buyer to all support each other.

They'll probably need to decide at some point whether they want this to be a news site or a marketplace. It's going to be hard to manage both effectively on one domain if either scales.
