Inappropriate?I like the editing options quite a bit. I wanted to select multiple industry categories but wasn't sure how. I also though there might be some value in more nuanced sales/rights terms for ads that are posted for sale (i.e., other than price). Other than that, everything seemed straightforward and useful. Very easy to work through.1 Comment

Thanks, Craig. Selecting multiple industry categories is a new wrinkle. We can accommodate it with a quick UI update, so we'll see when we can do it.
As for more nuance around sales / rights terms, we wanted to start dead simple and let the nuances emerge through requests and actions. We're watching it closely to see what we need to add to make the sales happen. -
Inappropriate?I liked the editing options, but I'm wondering if there aren't some ads that don't need all of that info. Perhaps Choosing 'For Sale' then (thru some AJAX work) then shows a bunch of more fields that are only appropriate when someone would want to contact me about the ad. Otherwise, those fields are a bit overwhelming.
Also, in the current implementation, you have to make a choice of 'Not for sale' before even updating a bit of the description or you get an error. That's a problem. I just wanted to try out editing the description, but couldn't make any of my edits because of the lack of a value in the For Sale radio group. It either needs to be pre-selected, or if there is no value there, perhaps you could ignore it.
I’m glad to see then new features in this section.

David, thanks for the feedback. Excellent questions and thoughts.
We're going to be cleaning up the UI and interactions with time to make it easier for ad creators. But I don't, at this point, see us changing some of the requirements.
Here's a little more on that thinking.
We tried to make all the info we considered extra to be optional. So the Ad Brief is almost all optional.
The info we considered key to how AdHack works as a marketplace, we wanted to make mandatory. Whether an ad was for sale, not for sale or sold was one of those piece of info. And if it was for sale, at what price?
I understand that such a restriction makes it tougher to test things out but I feel like it makes for a more focused site that serves its users -- both creators and buyers -- better.
And because we're migrating historic ads that were not marked as for sale, not for sale or sold, we need to get the information to create a new saved ad. To select not for sale on behalf of ad creators didn't seem like a fair selection to us.
