The explore tab is awesome, but we still need a way to switch existing projects to public or from public to private.

That is true. The way

That is true. The way projects are currently set up in Drupal (our CMS) needs to be completely re-done. When that is complete, you should be able to edit any part of your project. Hoping that will be done soon.

We added this functionality, just click on your project & click on "Switch to Public/Private". You can also archive projects.

Archive???

When you say we can archive a project, what exactly does that mean to us users?

Well, we plan on integrating

Well, we plan on integrating limits in the future on the number of projects each user can have. If your account had a 5 private projects limit, you could keep more in storage by archiving them. For archived project you can still download the source code, view the source code, but you can't save or build the code.

In the New Year our team is hoping to roll out paid accounts. This will hopefully help inject some money into our small bootstrapped company to expand our team and offer new features quicker.

I would be interested to know what your thoughts are...

Paid accounts sound like a

Paid accounts sound like a good idea to help support the company, as long as unpaid accounts still have the same access but are limited only by the number of private projects they can host.

I'd say you could limit the number of public projects a person could host, but that also limits the number of Tutorials in code that I can provide. :)

I'm sorry to say though that I won't be purchasing a paid account, as I don't really use Compilr. I essentially just evaluate Compilr to help provide you suggestions, as well as assist your users with C# code whenever I can.

I actually have Visual Studio installed on all my systems, and keep all my source code on a thumbdrive so it's accessible on all the systems.

Free accounts will have some

Free accounts will have some private and public projects. They will limited on how much storage they take and how many projects they can create. Haven't really decided on the exact numbers yet.

We also don't want to ruin the experience for our free users who have provided us amazing feedback so far.

That's fair, we are only expecting a small percent to upgrade to the paid version, but we're hoping this will give us enough capital to hire more people and grow faster. I do hope though in the future one of our features will be enough of a compelling reason for you to purchase :)
