Rant & Camera
I'm really sick of getting screwed over. This makes twice in the past few weeks where I get a GOOD design job request that I was happy about. I end up spending hours upon hours talking to clients about their website design, and finally, when payment discussion comes up, I loose a client. First example - A client requests that I be paid about $100 for the job, when I should be paid at least $400. Example Two - The client and I agree on a fair price.

2. You make a payment before the website is started, and the rest of the payment once it is completed.
