i haven't worked with anyone here yet, but my personal preference is to work on something small for someone first as it's a two-way street. yeah, developers can be aloof, overload themselves with too much work, and are notorious for missing deadlines (seriously, i've been in this biz for over a decade and i rarely hit my expected comletion dates - these estimations are a black art), but i've also had experiences where my project requirements are little to none. no specs, no documented workflows - actually, no documentation at all, no comps until last minute and then once the project does get underway, there's always the feature creep to contend with.
i stand behind my work and if my first small job doesn't meet the customers (that's you) expectations, then i don't expect a dime - but i also won't be working for you again, so no losses ;)
this is a competitive business, so i ask when someone does some good work for you, please rep/plug them here.
and mr. trooperbill, good luck with whoever this is - hope it all works out. but in the meantime i'd find someone a bit more competent for the job.
