jhmovie · 08-10-2010, 01:02 PM

Asked somebody in gfy sell and buy forum to make some banners for me.
Here is one of the sample
Does this banners worth $7 each?

Actually I can make it by some animated gif program within 5 minutes.

troncarver · 08-10-2010, 01:03 PM

yea thats a rip off i could easily make that in 5 min and i dont even design

Angry Jew Cat - Banned for Life · 08-10-2010, 01:03 PM

No, not even close. Goto DP and you'll get banners like that for a buck a piece.

Did you give a design brief explaining what you wanted?

No brief = Designer's discretion.

I did.
That's what he explained in his email

OK, you want them more complicated, I made them more web 2.0, the new Internet style which is clear, clean and user friendly.
If you'd like to contact another design, it's fine, you don't have to pay anything.

Something is worth what you can sell it for and it really depends what you asked for as to whether you got what was described.

Well, lets see :

+ 5 mins spent to apply for banner job
+ 5 mins to read email about the job
+ 5 mins downloading the content for the job
+ 5 mins starting up photoshop CS4

+ 5 mins making the banner
+ 5 minutes making email to send you the banner

So 30 mins altogether at the rate of $14 per hour.

Based on that scenario you got exactly what you paid for.

WTF do you want for $7?

DamnGoodRatio · 08-10-2010, 01:28 PM

A simple NO will do . . .

candyflip · 08-10-2010, 01:29 PM

Is Headless back making banners again?

michael.kickass · 08-10-2010, 02:07 PM

They're not worth $7.

Mike Dutch · 08-10-2010, 02:09 PM

maybe $6.25 max

Dating Port · 08-10-2010, 02:34 PM

Those look strangely like mine when I first taught myself Photoshop. Back when we had to stuff newspapers in our shoes to keep our feet warm and walk 5 miles a day to shool (up hill).

alsdesign · 08-10-2010, 03:11 PM

I would say they are worth $7 if the images were retouched, but then... you loose details on GIF palette and/or dithering.
It really depends: for example did he have to search for images on your site , or was he given image package to use? It all ads to price as sortie mentioned.

For this exact reason I always suggest my customers to test with smaller order first, then we can do a big gig. This way it's better for both sides.

Bingo.

With so many 3rd worlders now doing banners though not surprised webmasters think $7 is much to pay for a banner. All of the great designers i know have moved on from adult because its just not worth their time to design for these prices. You get what you pay for and $7 is fuck all to pay for any design work.

DigitalTheory · 08-10-2010, 03:17 PM

ummmmmmmmmmm IMO hell no.

But it is designer discretion.

Pics Traffic · 08-10-2010, 03:23 PM

Fucking A. I think you can do this with Ulead GIF Animator in 2 minutes.

iSpyCams · 08-10-2010, 03:39 PM

What you need to ask yourself is:

1) Will they work for your intended purpose?

2) Could you make more than $7 in the time it would take you to do them yourself?

Very good point in general, regardless of current case ($7 per banner).

You should've made them clickable to make your $7 back off the surfers here.

Nope, about $2.50 each

If you need simple stuff like this you should take 5 min. to learn how to do them yourself.

mudsaliva · 08-10-2010, 05:34 PM

I did these banners for $5 each
