Freelancers' porfolio planned
Hello Joomlancers,
As a solid partner of joomlancers.com I strongly suggest Joomlancers should allow freelancers be able to create their portfolio on your site.
If it can refer to the project / the buyer's review that would be great.
Cheers,

Show feedback on cancelled projects started
Freelancers can waste a huge amount of time for the buyer NOT working on a project. Then, in desperation the buyer cancels the project and lists it again for bids. In this situation the buyer gives bad feedback for the freelancer, but no-one sees it because the project is cancelled!

A faster way of releasing money to freelancers started
There should be a time period for money release, independently of which day a withdrawal is placed. Let's say something like 7 days after a withdrawal has been requested, and not currently constraint of 7 days before next monday.
We are planning this. You will see these changes very soon!

Have a different scoring structure for agents planned
There are many Freelancers who are just agents and sub-contract the work. This creates unrealistic comparisons with the scoring.
As a single freelancer I will always have a much lower rating than an agent who subs 10 times more work than I can do. This creates a false impression for buyers as so... more

Sometimes Joomlancers have completed a project and I have paid them and given them a 10/10 review then a few days later the code has broken and they don't respond to any communications. So I am left with an unhappy client and a broken site.

do not allow initial 1 dollar bids
Asking information is one. That is what the project clarification is for. Doing initial bids for 1 dollar in my opinion should be banned.

Payoneer Card support under review
Payoneer.com offers mastercard debit card that can be used on ATMs worldwide. It would be great if freelancers have option (beside paypal and wire) to redeem money to the Payoneer card. This service is used on many other major websites (such as istock, getafreelancer, elance, 2CO...)

That is so crazy if someone always add low bids (should be called crazy bids): $1, $5, $15. They cause the market to go down.
