The answer is simple and applies to all projects - charge as much as you can.

well it's not a great site. I made it the guy had lots of design changes. He kept wanting to change layout after it was built. I was jus curious how much someone would charge for the work.

figure out your hour rate.
You Hr rate has nothing to do w/ your skills or epxerience as a designer, it has to do w/ your ability to negotiate.
(if you have a lot of work, you are not charging enough, if you don't have a lot of work, then you are too expensive)Always bill changes by hour, this way clients will think about twice before sending you drifting around just so they can see how the project will look if it was all orange.

£500?! Ouch. Would that even cover the money you're going to have to pay iStockPhoto?

We must protect ourselves from situations like this. Designers and web developers are far too easily under-valued. Contracts, terms and conditions and be firm! If they don't want to pay the price, fuck em, they'll come crawling back when the project goes pear shaped.
