I may not agree with Meta's tone, but he has some ring of truth at the start of this thread, we designers don't get best treatment, many times its demands demands demands and "why so expensive" type of questions. some of you guys think we are some peanut slaves - much respect huh? - you can resell your content or sell it multiple times in your members, we can't resell your designs
you think its worth our time work on 25 dollar gallery?
I'm not complaining much, I have good client base, but some of you guys are nuts if you think couple hundred bux is sufficient to cover week/s worth of work

I hear ya Bro, i really do. And if MetaMan's 'tone' wasn't so ultra-douschebaggery I would've agreed with some of his points. While many of you will laff yer asses OFF - especially you designers - but I designed some of my most successful websites (Sexxy Brandon, MILF Mia and Fellucia Blow). So I understand "the process" of design, and how maddening it can be.
Having said that, you can contact the three or four designers I've hired here on GFY and they will ALL tell you that I paid immmediately, and well, sometimes even over-paying and bumping up myself their quoted prices 'cause I didn't they were fair to the designer. Does this make me rare? Maybe. It also makes me a great fucking client!
But what you say is 100% true, sadly. Many people 'take advantage' or are all about the 'best deal' and nickel-and-diming you to death. Not cool. Understandable, from a certain point of view, but ultimately not cool. I feel for the designers, as my posts in this thread should show.
