My Thoughts

I have had the opportunity to work for and consult many companies on the importance of web design in their company marketing strategy. Unfortunately I have come upon many clients that have fallen prey to "Money Saving" ideas, and paid the real price for it later. Mabey this story of a client will help you understand what some of the real cost are to "saving money".

I found a list of haunting questions and i thought they were so funny i would share them with all 2 of my readers. Leave a comment with more hauting questions if you want.

I have had a lot of different types of Jobs in my life. But I have never worked as little as I do now! See my reasons why I say so and a short 5 step process how to get there.

Surprisingly enough, based on the findings from my recent survey there are quite a bit of Fireworks users. Personally, I never used Fireworks. Photoshop is alway my first choice for designing—from image editing to designing mock-ups.

Well I have has a few weeks to play with the product interface. I have to be honest. It took a few trys to get the system set up the way I wanted it to work. (For my first project with Magento the products that my client was selling was pretty intense.)

My First impressions with Magento are good. It seems easy to install and the documentation is good as well. I feel that it needs a little bit easier way to customize the layout, but other than that I think that I will be using it from now on.

What in the heck is going on in the web design industry? I was doing a bid on a faily complex set website for a local festival called Chasco Fiesta. I was refered to the commity by a good friend of mine. I didnt want to over charge them so I made them a deal. I will only charge you 1500 if you give me a sponsorship for the chasco fiesta. This is a greatly reduced rate from what I would have normaly charged them for all of the options that they wanted, plus all of the design work that it was going to take on my part.
