My unsolicited 2 cents.

TinaTeam, before you take the design criticism to heart, I just wanted to point out that your work does have merit. It does need some tweaking here and there, such as fonts, but overall you are going in the right direction.

The price, you definitely need to work on. It's always tempting to offer the lowest price, but don't sell yourself short. The going rate for designers is at least $50 an hour and averages closer to $100. You may get more volume with your pricing... but raise your prices and you will be able to bring in the same income with a lower volume of clients. Plus, believe me, the bargain hunters who will pay your $300 are also the same people who will give you the most grief.

I run the Advertising / Marketing Department for a large conventional - non-adult corporation, so I've been around the block a few times.

P.S. To all those who thought the girl was ugly. It's all a matter of taste. I like her. She would get my attention long before the perfect California type babes would. Plus, the niche is Latin. I think the chosen girl hits this niche quite well. It's all about standing out from the competition.
