I really got under your fucking skin aint I... do you want some cheese with your WHINE ?
Dude it cuts both ways... my sites that I had done so far are top notch in my eyes...
www.chloelove.com and
www.wegetnaughty.com and both those sites cost me $250 a pop...
The guy who did them who was in the Philipennes told me that the designers in his country earn around $400 a month... so he loved working for me... damn am I exploiting him, it's not exactly a Indian Sweat Shop like Nike use in India...
And with my experience of designers dragging their heels with the lamest of excuses it does cut both ways... delays in getting a design finished is unexceptable... especially when on occassion its been over a month...
In a lot of industries there are time penalties for failing to do the job on time... lets analyse that last sentence, the bit that says "failing to do the job on time" you think thats exceptable, of couse you do your a designer... lol you guys should start a union
So my points are that bad ah Alien, the fact I object to being continueously let down, continuosly having a job take three times longer than quoted, and to boot designers still want to be paid up front...
Dont be pissed at me as a client, be pissed at your fellow designers who continuosly piss people off, they have created the problem... they quote a job, and trust me there are a tonn out there that do the sites at $250-$350 a pop... say yeah I can do it in a week and a month later they are popping up on ICQ explaining how their village got blown down !
Basically they take on a tonn of work from different people take the deposits then just fuck them around... they had 50% of the pay so they are in no big hurry to complete... it's fucking wrong Alien which ever way you cut it...
So carry on shouting... saying how bad people are for not offering $1000 a site and how they would all get a better job done... I for one dont believe it !
