Yeah its a rant, a rant about designers and programmers. Over the last couple months I have been spending almost every day or every other day looking for and talking to a designer or a php programmer.. and its just not working out.. 99% of the designers have no clue what is needed when I tell them, I start to think they dont even read their emails, and the programmers just like most the designers look like they are more interested in taking your money then doing the job right, even at high prices.
Last week I broke down and contacted my favorite design company(Oxidev), but as always they are way over worked by most clients, and for a one page template(CSS and header/background desing) they wanted $1,800 a template(Thinking about that reminds me how they offered to do 20 templates 8 months ago for 20k). Thats just crazy… So I hit up DP and end up with a bunch of emails form people willing to work for almost nothing… $20 a template, etc.. I know the work is worth around 200, but 2 out of 3 that hit that price range, had design skillz that was nubbings, and the other guy is reading my emails as if he is not understanding them or maybe smoking some PCP.. arg…
All I need for xmas and the rest of my life is one good designer that does not want to break the bank, and a PHP programmer thats on time, and codes right GD!
