Users and job placers can now comment on audio bids from other users

When a new audio bid is placed on a job at sound design bids users can now comment on that bid. I am hoping that this will create an on going conversation until the job is closed and a winner is assigned.
Job placers can use this to constructively provide feedback on the submissions being placed. Hopefully this will improve the quality of the audio and give future bidders more insight on what the job placer is expecting.
Also, bid placers will have an opportunity to provide feedback on their fellow sound designers work.
This should serve as a way to improve everyone’s individual work by allowing the community to share their opinions.

Let me know what you think.

Cheers

Sound design bids to be soft launched.

The website is still in its infancy and will need a ton of work to get it running efficiently.

I am hoping for lots of feedback on the site so that I can satisfy users to make placing bids and jobs as easy as possible.
