7 months or so and counting, off and on for me, for a major bank. Big project, lots of interested parties, and other 3rd party vendors to coordinate means everything takes forever but when a deadline hits it cannot be missed. :/ Delivering 10 minutes to midnight is technically still by end of day, right?

2 years, 4 months – Fundraising book for a Synagogue/Community.
The biggest problem has been getting anyone on the client end to actually provide content and/or signoff on content. I'm guessing that it might actually be finished in another couple of months.

I'm hoping this wraps in 2, but I'm thinking it'll be like 2 with an extra month of follow-up and IA consulting.

over a year on a project for X-prize. The latest x-prize is for automotive (the last one i believe was the lunar xprize, with all those folks building rockets and spaceships etc, this latest one is for building a car that does a minimum of 100 mpg etc....
it's been a fantastic ride working with these guys (no pun intended) and i enjoyed it a lot.....incredibly interesting work they're doing....

Pics? Must be an amazing homepage.

i've worked on sites scheduled to be done in 2 months and had them take a year and a half. (not continual work on them though)
usually it's client falling silent for month long stretches and content not getting to us in time.
But ukit's right, that has got to be the best homepage ever.

change of client staff? Is the company about to be bought? Unclear business objectives? Does it seem like this is somebody's pet project but that somebody has somehow lost power in the client's company?

doing environmental signage for a site up in northern california (napa) and it took 3 years for completion. i am doing a similarly long project in irvine right now... it kills me when it takes this long... i lose sooooo much interest.

2 years on stationery and color palette.
our team met with client every 2 weeks, showed comps, designs, mockups. absolutely beautiful stuff. she'd write all over the comps, making changes, we'd come back 2 weeks later & she'd have new ideas. went on and on and on. rich crazy lady. you have no idea how much she paid.
- you could say this project was stationary.iCanHasQBN
