I`ve been watching this forum for a few years now , lots of helpful things here but i never had any serious question to ask or help needed . Now I have both and I`ll be concise. I want to open a PPC website so I`ve bought a script (the clixscript from incentivescripts) and i`ve made a design of my own that doesn`t suit with the way clixscript design is. Also there are a couple of minor addons to be added, one a little complicated and another one heavy as some guy put it(which is not a programer, he is a designer): - a little dot inside the ad (just like in neobux and wordlinx), so it must be programed. ex: http://postimage.org/image/di4bw762x/ - ad number and featured link near the Browse Ads button ex: http://postimage.org/image/is4p9r0y1/ - a member informational page that I`ve made for those who want to advertise and target a specific country. I believe they deserve to know what they are targeting. It is like a table or sheet that shows information about each country that has members registered to my website .ex:http://postimage.org/image/cgpixy1ij/ - and the 'heavy' one who is an advertisement place who has to look like this: http://postimage.org/image/t787ln6el/ The one at the bottom All of these have to be made by a programer. The thing is something else concern me. To code my .psd pages (10) I have to pay $300, coding and integration they say, and who knows how much for the addons. I feed scammed to pay 300$ with my own design. I think is very huge amount. But i`m not to good at this and I didn`t had time to google my issue. What do you guys think? Please let me know!
Interesting that you can be robbed with sort of way. For this kind of what already happened, just take it as lesson. The other things are you could post it to asmany forums as you can to make sure the actor who robbed you get back his bad deed.
Hy, "just take it as lesson" - Ow, I just did. The thingis I alredy paid $150 up front, which is more than enough for that kind of work i believe. What does coding basically means if I already have the script? What does the guy have to do exactly when he already has the design and script? As far as I know he just have to create image of the layers, upload them and replace the links. Or not? I need opinions please. Thanks, Montana
He has to analyze your script, which takes more time than writing his own script - which will cost you more than if you hire him to create a site for you from scratch. Not. He has to analyze your script to understand how and where which layer has to have what done to it. Understanding what someone else did is a lot more difficult and complicated than just doing it yourself, so making someone else's script work with someone else's graphics is more work than creating a site. Write that $150 off. Anyone you hire now doesn't care if you spent 50 cents or $5,000, he only cares how much work he has to do - and that work is what you're going to pay for.
So basically I have to pay a lot more because is "difficult and complicated" and it takes time "to analyze the script". Right? I wonder you`ll do the same If you wore in a similar situation. " Anyone you hire now doesn't care if you spent 50 cents or $5,000, he only cares how much work he has to do" - This sounded like a cliche. If you chose a domain of activity you don`t complain about it. Why do you chose it in the first place? Everything is difficult and complicated. Thanks forthe explanation Montana
I pay someone more to rebuild my car's transmission than I pay him to replace the pan gasket. You expect to pay everyone the same amount, regardless of how much work he has to do? I pay people for the time they spend, not for the time other people have spent. If I go to 5 mechanics to fix my car, and only the fifth one can really find the problem and fix it, I don't tell him how much I've already spent on mechanics who couldn't fix it, and expect him to reduce his price.
