Why is he still working on order pages when there are more than enough bugs to fix!   

[tallship]

If I were to guess (Not usually a good thing, but here goes...), I would say it's because order pages are the one single thing that separates any HostBill install and provider from another, with distinctive looks/feels to the way customers perceive their providers.

For example, in WHMCS everything is pretty much vanilla for the most part and you can say, "Hey they use WHMCS", but you can kinda mask that w/HostBill by choosing different templates and order pages.

In the end, perhaps it's the only thing kbkp can get people to buy as most folks continue to abandon this software, so those who still want to run it might find new looks attractive, and be gullible enough to spend additional monies there?

Good guess  i'm sure your on point with that matter. Don't forget that most of them only take a few hours to code and cost a few hundred. LOL question was more for why is he doing it instead of fixing the bugs first.
