I’m fearing this will going to look like a personal ad, but here we go anyway.<p>Who am I?
I’m Dirk, a 32 year old Dutch jack-of-all-trades. I have a background in communications/PR, taught myself to hack (PHP mainly, Python OK too) some 7-8 years ago. I’m not the best designer in the world, but I know when something ‘works’ or not and know my way around photoshop/illustrator et al.<p>Our family dog (I have a wife+2 young kids) is a lab. As with most dogs, his owner has similar personalities: easygoing, playful, more intelligent than you’d say at first sight, and a puppy-like naivety well into adulthood. Oh, I’m housebroken, too.<p>About my project: No paint just pixels
Two years ago I started No paint just pixels: a project that will disrupt the art world. A lot of media have made the transition from analog to digital, from offine to online. This is clearly not the case with art. I made an online marketplace where digital artists and art lovers can buy, sell and display their art. The project is written in PHP and is about 75% finished.

I’m looking for someone who is a jack of all trades like me: part hacker, part design guy/gal, part marketer, part sysadmin. If you have strong coding skills but lack a sense of design or marketing that’s okay, but coding skills are a must. Personalitywise: if you’re easy going, love art and/or photography, want to make the world a better place and have a sense of humor contact me! The one thing I can do without is a big ego though.
If you’re already based in California that’s a plus, but by no means a prerequisite.<p>What’s the deal?
For sake of equality, 50% of the company and its proceedings.
