Hi Lawson,

I am wanting to collaborate with a couple of people on UI mockups. But if

will find a way for you to contribute. I hope you're also interested in
helping to re-imagine the user interface for Lively. Regardless I'll be sure
to copy you on emails.

Below is just a start but I'll explain soon what more I hope we accomplish:
