Although the code seems to work well in both testing and production, getting this kind of th...

We used python + django for the major development, the development process is actually very fast, and we do have code reviews, design pattern discussions, and constant refactoring.

The substance of an app is more important to me than its apperance, yet GUI always seems to dominate a disproportionate percentage of programmer time, development and target resource requirements/constraints.
