#73Maybe I'm being picky, but 'ninja' in the name doesn't represent the service as serious which can connote lack of reliability, even subconsciously.

I like it. It is like one of those gawker headlines. You get curious and want to find out.

#75Hi, thanks for all the great feedback (I'm the developer of the app). @matthewmacleod That's a good suggestion, we'll work on it. @lnanek2 Yes, but we're free :) @ville, Our first concern is to perfect the application, making money will come later. @peteacc. I’ll need to look into it, thanks for catching it. @photoGrant If you set the payment terms for the client it will automatically set the due date for you.

That doesn't sound consistent with the "100% FREE, ALWAYS" banner.
By charging money from the get-go, you'll attract more serious clients, and you won't scare people away when you eventually spring costs on them.

#76You should charge something for this. Even if you charged $10/year, it at least gives the impression that there is a contract and agreement in place that you will maintain the service and protect and provide the service. I have no interest, personally, in entering a bunch of invoice data in a service that might get shut down in a year after the developers lose interest in maintaining something that they lose money on…
Hi Brandon! Email is also free, Facebook is free, waze, twitter, etc... We will NOT be charging a monthly or annual fee for InvoiceNinja.com Email us to discuss: contact@invoiceninja.com
If you don't explain a business model (selling add-ons, advertising, freemium)... People will assume the most nefarious business model possible. I know how Facebook and Gmail and Dropbox make money. I'd need to know how you make money before I start using your product.

So since those services survive on mining users data, that's a great business chocie.
Re: Invoice Ninja
#78Out of curiosity, why did you choose to write a new web application in PHP? I'm not a web developer, but everything I hear about PHP is bad.
now i may be wrong, but isn't Facebook on PHP?
Re: Invoice Ninja
#79It's broken in Firefox, FF just starts downloading random named PDFs and those downloads never finish. Chrome displays the PDF inline correctly.
It works fine for me in FF. It might be due to the PDF reader you've selected for FF?
I think you are right, I opted to download PDFs, not to view them inline.

#80I have yet to find an invoice app that supports Greek characters :(
Try Invoice Machine (http://invoicemachine.com/). I don't know if they support Greek characters or not, but they are a small Swedish team so they are definitely internationalized.
