Like I said before, the modifications were minimal and only to prove a point.

If it wasn't clear - I am not trying to get that money back. By posting this thread, I completely wrote it off. I posted it here because Francis was unprofessional and I figure the community has a right to know when those sorts of things go down. Something like this says a lot about character. Undoubtedly, if someone is willing to short a designer a few hundred dollars, it makes you question what other creative accounting is going on.

I'm not worried about it. I've done work with only two adult companies. The experience I had with the first was great. The experience with Francis has made me not want to pursue more business within the adult arena, so posting this to GFY doesn't do me any harm. I know there are a lot of good people in this business, unfortunately, I just had a brush with one of the dishonest ones.

Noted, but in all the years I've done freelance design work, this has never happened.
