Car for business Mar 25, 12, 12:02 p.m.

Are there any self-employed or business owners here who have bought or leased a car for their business? I'm planning on 75% business use.

Any thoughts regarding a 5-year finance or 3-year lease? Google says in some situations, the lease may provide better tax deduction incentive depending on the price of the car.

Freelance Contracts ? Jan 13, 12, 10:42 a.m.

For the consultants out there, do you guys have any contracts with your clients?

My 6-month full-time gig will be coming to an end soon. It's been a daily thing with no contract. And we're talking about extending this for another 6 months.

And I'd like to put it in writing - as I'm helping them with new business pitches currently as well.

Should I approach them with something drafted? Any suggestions are much appreciated.

Xmas Gifts for Bosses or Clients Dec 11, 11, 10:31 p.m.

With less than 2 weeks left to send out Christmas gifts for clients or bosses, what ideas do we have??

I've got a client that I know doesn't drink Scotch (my usual go-to holiday gift). So what now?

Monitor for Gaming Nov 28, 11, 12:47 p.m.

Question for gamers:
What do you look for in a good monitor for gaming? Low response time? IPS?

I know most of us like the Dell Ultrasharps for design and graphics, but apparently they have a 6ms response time? Anything out there that has a faster time and still retains a high picture quality?

Tablet Market Share Nov 3, 11, 8:15 a.m.

So is it really true that Android tablets have taken 27% market share from the iPad in just one year?

I don't believe. I live and work in NY and I have yet to actually see anyone using anything other than an iPad.

Where are all these supposed Android tablets? Are they used more in business and IT, not consumer?

I'm looking for something easy to use for basic recording on a daily basis.

on screen graphics Apr 18, 11, 10:12 a.m.

Does anyone remember the name of the guy who does pretty much all the in-movie motion graphics. The stuff that appears on computer screens, digital interfaces, etc.

I think it appeared here on QBN once. Can't find it.

these are questions for sole proprietors of their own design studio.

Do you have, what one would consider an official "home office"?

And where do you meet clients?

Mostly used for placing in your artwork for comp purposes. I can't find my bookmark.

girls and film Mar 6, 11, 12:58 p.m.

Why is that most females have such a hard time engaging in movies by directors like Aronofsky, Kubrick, Von Trier, Lynch, etc. Like most of here, I love movies that make are challenging and thought-provoking, yet still entertaining.

I love my collection of Criterion films, but the GF doesn't want to, scratch that, can not watch them with me. I think I'm going to break up with her for this reason.

Bring on the quasi-misogynistic (or full-on sexist if you'd like) commentary. Or feel free to prove otherwise.

selling prints & posters Mar 4, 11, 3:46 p.m.

My Epson 3880 sits idly in the corner of my studio, waiting to be used for the occasional color proof.

Any suggestions for a print designer/photographer on setting up an online shop for prints? I know there a lot of these already, just want to give it try. (Or should I not even bother?)

Wacom + keyboard Feb 24, 11, 12:09 p.m.

Been using a Wacom tablet for years now, but have never really found an ergonomic way to use both the tablet and keyboard (needed for shortcuts).

I wish Wacom would build a tablet with an integrated keyboard!

billing 3rd party resources Feb 16, 11, 10:40 p.m.

Do you have your clients pay you for the printing and/or web development you've overseen? (plus your markup)

Or do you ask them to pay the printer/web developer directly?

I do both, depending on the client. But I mostly do print.
