Hey! I live in Nashville and there's plenty of work out here. With a week or two you could probably find a gig here and turn it into a business trip. Boom 30% discount come tax time!

Hell - while you're in Chattanooga stop in at http://colab.co/. Their office is close to downtown. Find a project based out of Chattanooga and see if they'll pay for you to fly out every couple months!

I am just curious if he makes $65/hour how come he didn't save up 300 hundred ? It is just 5 hours his time.

It's a great marketing ploy.

Not sure why you were downvoted - this is a brilliant way for him to get his name out there. Before this, we never would've heard of him, and now he's at the top of HN.

For PSD2HTML? And that round trip ticket price? Ok. Shoot me a mail. (See profile)

Didn't that YC company, Markupwand, do something like this automatically? Since they've vanished, I wonder if this problem is hard to do automatically?

Photoshop CS6 has this feature built-in, but it generates horrible css -- it reminds me of the days when people used Dreamweaver to output their html.

As someone who has been in such a relationship before while on a very tight budget, I have respect for this guy. It is really hard to put up a post asking for business like this, too, I imagine.

To the OP: Good luck to you. I hope you not only find business and get your ticket but also do a great job for those who hire you. I sincerely wish you happiness and success in your relationship and your work.
