This has got to be the most intelligent thing posted on GFY in months.
Why? It's just a special, not permanent pricings...When Walmart gives specials, I doubt it's ruining their industry....
Plus, I don't see what people are talking about, ruining the industry? I think people are smart nowadays to know they have to pay good prices to get good work. Now if he was charging this low all the time, that might be a different story, but he doesn't...
Also, there is plenty of work for everyone, no need getting jealous. ;)

I don't make galleries. I have no artistic or creative abilities at all. I am a coder. I pay a designer about $30 per gallery that I get built. I am happy with his work and wouldn't consider using anyone else. I could care less what people charge. What I get upset about is people expecting a free ride. Free scripts, free hosts, ridiculously low priced design. Where will it end?
If people HAD to invest some money to get into this business there would be infinitely fewer newbies and therefore more traffic and money to go around. It's nothing personal against this guy. I'm sure his galleries are fine. Sometimes we all need a little extra $$ and this is a good way to generate that money.
I didn't see those URLs before I made my last post. Those look fucking great. They are better than most galleries I see other "professionals" make. You could charge twice as much and still have a ton of work.

I usually charge $30-50 a gallery. So if any of you dumb fucks have a problem with $15, you can pay me $35. How's that?

In order for things to get better they have to get worse, and to me, things seem to start getting a bit better. For example, Easypic's $100 a year deal to submit galleries, bigger TGPs will follow that idea, I believe shemp is considering it eventually, that will weed out people...but give these newbies a break, let them make their $35 one signup a month bullshit, so they can just move on...There is still plenty to go around...
Building galleries....checking....done
Submitting galleries....checking...done
Getting signups...in proccess....done
Posting on GFY...doing it right now
Nope, but obviously you haven't been doing this long enough to see a downward trend.
Shut the fuck up and pay attention to the thread, it's a special. End of story.
It's not a fuckin' trend. Jesus Christ I don't know how you fucks make any money sometimes, if this is all you do, come on here and bitch about nothing all the time.

I suppose it's just a different opinion, we'll see in a few years I suppose, and I assure you I've been around longer then you, if thats the kind of "my dick is bigger" game you'd like to play.
