Thank you for your positive feedback. Very good to hear that the logos and mockups are going into the right direction.

Yeah, that's okay!

Yes, I would prefer to write a prototype/dummy page for Snowy at first. I think that the CSS part shouldn't be too difficult. For this very first prototype I would also like to give Compass (http://compass-style.org/) a try. 

After validating the first prototype, I could go on with creating a Django template for Snowy.

I'm fully aware of the limited development resources and I also think its better to stick to one note per page at first. I suspect that we can discuss the "viewing and editing notes" in more detail when it's time. My ideas here are more about what could be possibly done in the future.

That's a good point. I will take it into account.
