    hey everyone
    i just paid $60 to someone from digitalpoint for a custom template. I am sadly disappointed at what it looks like, but I would like other opinions.

    Please tell me if this template looks like its worth $60, thanks. This is for just the PSD.

    $60? Not at all.. I would have designed one with that quality for $10.

    Was it coded? Maybe wordpress? If it's JUST a design.. I would ask for a refund, that was unfairly priced.

    P.S: 3 weeks is really long, as a designer myself, that would have taken... 10 minutes max.

    You say he's only 13 teen. lol

    There's no law that will make him pay anything back- sell it or gave it away and learn from your mistakes. I had him to code a template for me and he did it in 2.1 which i ask for 3.1.

    Thanks all.

    Yeah, always ask for their portfolio.. and ask them how many modifications you can make to the template until you're satisfied with it. There are some shady designers out there:rolleyes:

    Also, sending 50% upfront instead of all will give you some control over the outcome of the template design..

    The design is terrible, absolutely terrible. The colors are awful. I could have done better myself even though I am not a designer.

    Anyway, next time, may I suggest that you try this freelance marketplace.

    what you do is learn a little code yourself and modify free templates imo...
