does anybody know what font this is?

I know, I know, it's pretty awful, but our client needs it.

custom PHP development websites Feb 25, 10, 7:31 a.m.

So I am redesigning the website for a company that offers custom PHP programming for their clients.

I have done a lot of searching and found a lot of similar companies' websites, but do you guys know of any super bad ass websites for these types of developers? Most of the sites I've found are pretty awful.

One of their biggest priorities is having a lot of their products displayed on the main page, so I've been trying to find developers' websites that do something similar.

Thanks.

Noob question about rates Jul 26, 09, 2:23 p.m.

So I am still in school, but I've been doing some freelance work here and there. Yesterday this woman offered me a job designing websites for her. She apparently has a consistent flow of websites and needs a new designer. She also said I would have to sign a noncompete working agreement, and that is where the question comes in...

She asked what my hourly rate is and I'm not sure what to say. The fact that I have to sign a noncompete working agreement means that I should be payed enough to not need to seek outside freelance work, right? If that's the case than my current rate of $25/hr is too low, I think...

What do you guys think? I'm just so nooby that I don't want to say the wrong thing.

Oh, and also, what about my current projects? Would I have to finish them before signing the noncompete agreement?

Thanks.

$250 too much for bad logo? Jun 26, 09, 4:31 p.m.

Okay, so I'm a design student and I've just started doing some freelance work. Web design is my preferred outlet, but I don't want to turn down identity work. I know I have a lot to learn still, so I'm not exactly looking for a critique, but if you're compelled to do so, that's cool.

All I really want to know is, do you think I can reasonably ask for $250 for the work I've done?

The client ended up choosing the worst logo, of course, so that's what makes me feel kinda bad. But I shouldn't, right? $250 is cheap, right?

Here are the different logos I created:
