    Are there any other developers willing to help? Especially web/css developers.

    Before you enlist help did you get approval from the admins?

    Did I hear a request for help? Did I hear that I'd need to be a web/css developer?

    I'd be interested, I've got quite a bit of Web/CSS Experience, and would adore to help out with a TA App.

    What would I need to do to sign up?

    ScreenShot

    Heres a screenshot of the app for anyone who doesn't have xcode. So far the icon is the same as the icon for the TA site and the forums button doesn't work but heres the homepage in the app. [​IMG]

    Hey guys,

    I appreciate the effort, but there is one major issue with this project.

    We can't allow an App Store app to be branded as a TouchArcade app that we don't have 100% ownership and control over. I'll email Firestar about details about what he had in mind for the forum side.

    It's my username. My company is Ingenero Software. Web developer/CSS is needed to isolate the sidebar column on the homepage and re-style the forums so they fit nicely of the screen.

    I'm just uploading images of the revised RSS feed (once of TouchArcade servers). Be up in a moment.

    And here they are:

    Even if the App is released as free? What if it's branded as a single site RSS Reader with limited web access to the forums?

    I think he means they submit it and can modify it before release.

    Since then I have revised the back and forward buttons - now you just tap on the side of the screen and a transparent arrow comes up on the side ( to show you what you're tapping on).

    I'll be cleaning the button up - just a quick job on Pixelmator. And also, the blue toolbar - I take it you mean the thing saying TouchArcade? That can be changed in the new one (made in Dashcode), and the display of the articles is much better. Unfortunately I can't change it to that in the project until the admins upload the web app on this site.
