ola :) can you icq me i need something done

I really dont know why he would fuck me, he got the money, he made the design, and i was really satiesfied with it. just need a few changes. last i heard from him was on the 25th of november.

did you agree PSD included ? most designers dont do that unless you ask or if youre a regular customer

well what can i do with a JPG file of the design....LOL

I just browsed through my ICQ history, and i found a url where he stored a example of the design,

you can put it on the web thats all, like i said PSDs arent usually included, if you paid a few 100 you cant expect him to include them imho

SPLASH PAGE - 1 TOUR - JOIN $225

the only file i got was this

exactly.. i would never use a designer who didn't give the psd's standard, but thats just me.

I include the psd as well as a sliced version and usually a version in html...for EVERY client. No matter what. I thought that was just common sense to include the psd files but I guess I learn something new every day.

I only include the psds if asked for, no extra charges though

That sucks, we prefer to include the PSD in delivery.

Do most clients just not want them? Am I fucking up by including them to everyone?

as I can see on http://www.mr2creationz.com/contact.html there are two contact ICQ numbers. have you tried both of them?

yes i spoked with one of them, he didn't know him, but he would ask his partner.

it is good to provide the psd, after all service is paid including the psd...
i cant see any reason why any designer should not give the psd...

One good reason would be so that the client doesn't muck up the design trying to make changes.

I prefer to be the one to make changes to the work that I did. So I always try to hold onto PSDs for this purpose. In most cases, you should be able to charge for any extra work you might do. If someone really wants the PSDs, they're charged accordingly.

The problem here is that every designer and their brother has gone to designing paysite tours for $200 AND giving the clients the sun and the moon and the PSDs. Plenty of money in the pocket of your porn design hack.

If the .jpg isn't compressed (it's at 100%) ANY designer should be able to copy it into Photoshop and slice it up and optimize it as you need it :2 cents:

But non of the nav titles or links are correct or changeable without the PSD, right?

Yeah, there are ways around it...but won't look as good as if the changes were made in the Photoshop file.

Likewise ..

I personally give the .psd but keep a backup in case they fuck it up and want more work done...

on this case..

even if you have uncompressed jpg... it is still useless without the psd... specially when youre the type of client who lacks editing skills...

You have everything there to make the site. Any decent designer can open that .JPG in Photoshop/ImageReady and slice it up to turn into a website. I'm not sure if you we're planning into turning the top part into a Flash file, but that might be your only problem.

yes any decent designer can work on that... poor client... now he need to hire another designer....

Sucks :eek7

Slice that up and tile the appropriate parts and go from there
Sucks to hear you got burned .

Sounds to me from what you posted this was just the preview image and the work never got done .
