OK designers, we'd like to get some honest feedback. We want to develop a facebook tab to display your designs. Is this something you would be interested in? How could we make it something you would be really interested in?

We understand everyone has their own agenda. Your goal is to get $$$, sell your designs, get clients, .... We want to help make this happen.

In being transparent, our reason for creating a facebook tab is to help Prova spread virally. We want more people to find out about us. We want to attract more business clients to prova.fm. This would benefit you, if you use it to sell your designs/services.

We'd like to know specifically what you would like to see on a facebook tab. Keep in mind, we'd also like to extend this tab to work on your personal website, blog, your profile here at prova.fm, or other places on the internet (not JUST on facebook).

We figure, we'll display all your template designs, & a portfolio of all your designs entered in a contest. Your portfolio would display your designs in a way to attract clients to you. Your template designs would be displayed with purchasing info, so clients could buy your templates. We figure we'll split these 2 sections. Also, on the templates side, clients can view ALL your templates, or click to sort by just one type (postcards, flyers, door hangers). Only links to types you've uploaded would be visible. So if all you create are logos, the only filter links would be 'ALL' & 'Logos.'

What else could we add? Imagine: What type of "widget" could we create that would make you want to display on your website, facebook, blog? We figure, displaying your portfolio would be good enough, but what else could we add? Would you install it (it will be easy)?

Thanks,
-guru team

yeah that definately sounds like a god idea. what better way to advertise yourself and prova, than on a
website that millions of people use. =]

Hey ljdaniels,
What would you want us to display on your facebook tab? Your contest entries so your friends could star-rate them? Your portfolio so clients could view? your templates so people could buy? Anything else?

i think the main area of it should be the templates with a drop down box like you said where they can narrow the search, because thats were, as a designer i should imagine you would gain the most income. and then have several sub sections for profile and contest entries. i cant really think of anything else that would be useful, apart from the fore-stated.

That sounds like a really cool idea! As soon as I find out what a tab is on Facebook, I'll provide some additional feedback. I just created my facebook page 3 days ago.

yes, not that savy on facebook. will look into what they are using and ask around.
