Thank you for taking the time to respond, while I sympathize with your current situation of only being 3 in the company, a professional avatar to seek new business should not be of your face but rather a logo of your company as your face can offend people; I see that you have not yet taken my advice.
I also accept your apology to my little daughter so thank you but I would never let you anywhere near my little girl.
I think in my future plans as I have a lot of resources at my disposal, what I am going to do is offer tutorials on how to apply styles to nopCommerce so that one can apply any designs or templates as they so wish. This will also allow users of nopCommerce to more easily update their version of nopCommerce and understand the modifications necessary for their design to stay intact. I think I am going to contract this one out maybe to someone in the nopCommerce community; to give back to the community shall we say.
It's going to be an uphill struggle for you to keep satisfied customers as I've already heard that there are many who are unsatisfied with your templates and how difficult they are to apply etc...
Again I wish you the best of luck, but sure please change your Avatar, if not for me or your business, think about your other 2 partners, how your Avatar could essentially destroy the business and their lively hood.
A big smile,

Hi Bite_me,
Many thanks for your very valuable advice.
As a new comer to this business, i feel very grateful to hear your advices.
Now I removed my avatar and I'm going to create a more formal and business friendly one.
Before I decided to quit my job and start this business which was a quit tough and risky desicion.
I was ready to face any chanllenge.
I will not be scared to have problems in this stage, we're trying our best to fix the problems. And thanks to people like you give us very important feedbacks which help us grow. I feel very grateful from the bottom of my heart.
Thanks for your understanding and i'm looking forward to working with you someday though i dont even know who you're.
Regards.
Larry
