I got my first commission since opening Flamora a few weeks ago. The guy said he wanted the layout to be like my The Machine vector, so I thought it would be fairly simple. I assumed all I would have to do is rearrange a few points in the original PSD and then code it.

Wrong.

Before you know it I'm trying to figure out how to add Oprah and Margaret Thatcher to the design and I'm redoing the whole right side because it wasn't 3D.

This is why I haven't been as active lately. I spent my days staring at this thing, about to pull my hair out. There are a lot of things I would change about the final product, but they're all things he wanted.

At least now I know I have to put my foot down a bit or charge more.
