Hi guys,

Well, I've done it. I'm taking the steps to get my idea rolling out. I'm creating my site with basic functions, allowing me to branch out and add new features along the way.

I got the .com domain name I wanted (finally), got my logo, got the general design of the pages including account pages and the homepage. It's a fun, free (for this particular section), playful service involving loans.

Now, here's the problem. I'm being way too obsessive with how it looks. I know deep down it doesn't matter, just get it out there, and that the more I screw around with it without launching, the most time I effectively waste with potential sign ups and regular users.

What are your views in helping me change this? I suppose the main question is:

Do you guys think this "perfection" will actually help the business?

It's really odd, I know people would find just as much use from the site if it wasn't "perfect" and yet, I can't help myself!

Look forward to your suggestions :)

Thanks and all the best!
