    To graphic designer out there,

    Let me and all the rest of DP know what's your price for a logo design,header design etc..As for me I start at $10.Too cheap huh..well I'm not doing graphic design as my full time job.This is my freelance job.Sometimes I'm wondering how much other freelancers like me charge their clients.

    Still wondering...

    You may be able to get more if you can show a portfolio. Sites I design go for low $XXX.

    I guess the payments go low or high based on your skills and talent.

    What do you do for $10???
    I found a freelance graphic designer willing to design a 468x60 banner for my site for $10 at project4hire.com
    Can you beat that?

    dunno..but I think my work worth more than that.I think I'm gonna need to add the price seems that all of you here charge more than i could ever imagine.but.don't you think that if I charge more,then people might not be afraid to do business with me.[gonna need to set up a website for my portfolio]..actually I started making free logo in this forum.I think this is a goog promotion technique.maybe for newbie like me,I should charge $10 only[$10=RM35 in my country---quite a lot].I'll consider to charge more than that when I had my portfolio website ready.

    It's actually quite a normal price. You kind of have to work your way up there, but it's very possible :)
