as much as it would be fun to go after her client and take down their site, i would probably advise against it. i'm assuming they paid her, and tasking down their website hurts them more than it hurts her.
so far, you mentioned that you have sent polite emails. maybe the next step would be to send less friendly emails. if you did the graphics, remind her that is she didn't hold up her end of the contract, then the copyright to those images still belong to you, and that you will contact the client about their use of your copyrighted material if she doesn't pay you promptly. if she doesn't respond with a check, then take to the client about copyrights and see if they won't put some pressure on her. if nothing happens, then that's the appropriate time to take down the site.

If it's not in the mailbox tonight the site is coming down. And a link to the AA site is fucking brilliant! haha!

I took the site down that night and she called the next morning.
Turns out the check was never sent. She agreed to FedEx the check to me and I am tracking it now. It should be in my possession by noon.
She's PISSED but fuck it. She straight up lied about sending out the check three times now.
When it's in my hands the site will go back up.
And NO I will not post the site. Trust me... it's horrible and I cut so many corners trying to save time I'm not even sure it will work across all browsers. :/

e-pill she called about about 9am the next day when she got into work. I took it down late that evening.
I'm really irate over this whole deal.
The 3 month project has been dragged on to 15 months which fuckin blows cause I agreed to do the site for a specific amount. At about month 7 I of course was over budget on my time. That's about when I stopped giving a fuck and just doing everything they said design-wise and cut corners on everything.

well let us know when u get the check and buy us all lunch with that money since we helped you...
