I'm creator of Spark app (http://codefather.io/spark/) - 37Signals Campfire chat client for Windows (8.1)

IMHO it's one of the best Campfire clients out there (iOS, and Android included). I've put a lot effort into creating it and really hope users will enjoy it as I do.

Feedback welcomed. Tadek

I would personally choose more professional looking screenshots: currently the first two have pictures from Lord of the Rings and the Big Bang Theory (and character names from the BBT...), and the second two have memes.

Thanks for your feedback :) Actually it's on purpose :) Maybe will change it in the future, but personally like it as is! No everything needs to be so serious :)

If you want to sell your app to businesses or startups that have accountant who is going to look at the app to consider the requests to buy the app, then you have to consider the maturity of your landing page.

Some of the jokes will put people off, especially the one with sexual tone.

I don't use Campfire anymore but I do think that is a good looking chat client.

The promo site however needs a bit of work. There is just something about the combination of text, images, and spacing that makes it look unattractive.

Would love to hear more details. I'm programmer(not designer) so it might be the reason I'm missing something there :)
