    Hey, thanks for checking out MarkaBoo. We really are trying to make a better service, and one that is TRULY open for the community to mold. We're going through some growing pains right now, but we're working hard at making the site as robust and scalable as the big guys. Keep the faith and thanks for the kind words!
