I would never do something like this, so I can't tell!
^Maybe you should ask how much they give you, and acept whatever come!

The artist takes shit (scrap metal) and makes it into art... Hey his idea not mine.

Rusty, scrap, junk yard metal...
My point exactly!Wait a min... of topic!
Someone wanted to giv me $5,000 for a gallery like that. But I think its worth more.

tell 'em you charge so much an hour. if they can only pay 5 grand then divide it up and give 'em that amount of time.
may not look as good - but if that is what they can afford then so be it.
but you're right. your eye for design and your technical skills add up to more than that.

Thanks that's helpfull. I always tend to charge to little... But hunger has compeled me not to be a nice person any longer.

_salisae_ just took a look at your URL. Awesome site.
If you ever need a freelancer that charges too little let me know. :)

you got it, Captain!

$5k?! That's cwazy. The site you posted is very simple. Anything in the 4 digit range seems like you're overcharging.
Really, you could do a similar site in 2-3 days as long as you had all the content.

fate - designers spend a lot of money in schooling and time developing personal style to make a design look simple.
they deserve respect for that. and money.
- Cptn_Uncanny0
Yeah... If I HAD the content. I took all the pix of the sculptures, and did the movie with the dancing flower (last selection on the menu), and mixed the music. In the end it was a lot of work.
Besides, in this case, the client wants a lot of custom animation... I mean art, not just things moving arround.

at least 2500. flash is pricey tell them and it's much more than a copy and a paste with some tweening. it's b*stards that would do it for 250 bucks that screw things up for the rest of us that have bills to pay.
i would bid 4000 and if they think it's high then work with them.
oh, and that metal work is cr*p. one of the pieces was barbed wire the photographer took a picture of. it was entitled 'slaves'. wtf?!? it's barbed wire. you did nothing to it. IT'S BARBED WIRE! IT COMES LIKE THAT!
- Cptn_Uncanny0
Actually, he made his own barbed wire. I took that as the oppening shot for the 'slaves' gallery because it fit well with the theme.
Thanks for the advice.
