Got a customer that wants 20 custom icons for a web application of theirs, up to 256px.
We have not done custom icon work in low quantities. How much should I charge?

20,000.
settle for 6,000.

Start at 100,000 and negotiate up from there.

too many variables.
not enough context in question.

Nice work actually. If I actually knew a real answer, I'd totally give it to you.

Here's a simple formula...
* Estimate the # of hours it will take you for design + revisions.
* Charge that # times your hourly rate
* Write a contract that spells out design options, including revisions
* Have client sign itDone.
- ..Or you could always ask them how much their company makes and rape them on price based on that.sublocked

- felt a bit too cheap thopauliusuza
- so raise your hourly or tack on some bonus hours.sublocked

I'm with sublocked.... I remember someone telling me take the hours you *think you'll spend, then multiply by 2.. but depends how well you know yourself and your client.
Other than that, you could have a set price per icon with a set number of revisions, then a price per revision there-after
