I forgot to mention a few important things:

* You are the expert in term of UI Design and Usability so we all want  
to learn from you (at least I do! :)) but I can't learn if you don't  
take the time to explain to me why my thinking is so wretched :) But  
once we understand a concept, we'll be the one to evangelize it and  
promote it so you won't be alone anymore. We'll also be able to do  
some new designs that are mostly ok without having to have lengthy  
discussions.

* This is one of the first time you're interacting here so it's normal  
it's taking some time to get a common understanding. This is perfectly  
normal and is a process that takes some time. This is not something  
that can be rushed.

Just wanted to make sure you understand how important it is that you  
continue discussing here and that we (I at least) really value your  
inputs (because I know you and I know you can bring a lot but you have  
to be a bit more patient ;)).

Thanks
-Vincent
