I've been doing gallery work for people for a very long time, and not once have I had someone say 'nah I don't want to pay you 50% to start' - I wouldn't even deal with someone like that, why? because anytime I have, it ended up bad.

I am glad the people I work with have the confidence or at least the FAITH in THEIR OWN decisions of trusting a desgner. Geez man, you guys make designers sound like crooks, not some, ALL OF THEM.

It's funny how the designer gets the bad rap, when I wish I had a nickel for everytime someone wasted days of my time talking to me about projects and blah bnlah blah, or everytime I have to CHASE DOWN clients for money.

I'm owed more than your rent right now ;)

And you want to know why I ask for money up front?

hahaha because there are WAY TOO MANY SCAMMERS AMONGST YOU.
I'm owed $5k from last year.. this year only about $2k
Doing free work makes me feel fuzzy inside.
