Hrm. So what would you do for the 3 months? Do you have the team you need to build what you want to build?

FWIW, I'm not a hacker, either. UX, XHTML, CSS, JS, SEO and other assorted acronyms are my bailiwick (though I can dork around a bit with rails/PHP/etc). Of course, I've also dabbled in accounting, sales, etc.

In my experience, a solid designer can easier keep pace with 2-3 coders (it's just that much harder to code something than it is to design it)... Which means (in my book), that a non-coder had better be prepared to do other stuff in the early phase of the project (notably SEO, SMM, and public relations).

(by the way, checked out your portfolio-- nice design work!)
