blink.gif wow... well i just met this new person on myspace and we were discussing myspace layouts... and he said that someone paid $250 for a layout. The layout I have posted below. It seriously blew my mind. I've never heard of anyone even charge anymore than $10. Have you came across anyone who paid a ridiculous amount of money for a myspace page? I figured with that amount of money, they could have a full flash websites made and hosted.

$250 layout

^ Originality and being unique isn't an issue if the layout actually looked good and it's difficult for anyone here, no matter how experienced a cB'er, to say that Myspace is well designed. Like people have said, there are better layouts out there, and customising for a tailor made look needn't cost that much more. Also, no one is going to know that Myspace COST that journalist $250 because it doesn't look like it was.

However, I'm neither nor when it comes to what price is right. It really is completely dependent on the layout itself. If I had the money, I'd pay way more than $250 for Trish's work because I know she'll deliver. Same goes for a lot of other designers here. You can't name a flat rate appliable to all designers because everyone has different skills and different execution of ideas and concepts and will always come out differently.

So specific to the layout this specific thread is concerned with, no way, $250 is a rip off. But other than that, I can't say how much is too much/little.
